Well, it's been a month.
Things got off to a hefty start, what with working dragon*con and all. I've given anyone who asked about the experience some version of the same response: "It was fun, but tiring." When I returned home from Atlanta, I very quickly came down with a case of the 'con crud, which wreaked havoc throughout my lungs for the better part of two weeks.

I've been home from Dragon*Con for a little more than a week now, and I'm still trying to figure out how to describe this year. Like so many things, it was a hodge-podge of awesome and infuriating.
The 'con is many things to many people. To me, it represents more of a family reunion than anything else. I've always been an "outsider" in that I live states away from some of the best people I've come to know over the last decade.
