pacificpikachuBack from Yaoi-Con! It was awesome as always. Many laughs, fun events, great people, good times. It's sad leaving such a fun con, and especially because I was hanging out with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
toggy and astrokittie at the end and I didn't want to leeeeave. Needless to say, now I'm exhausted! I was up until 4 AM last night because I was at the dance until 3 AM and then took a shower and whatnot, and I did not want to get out of the comfy, pillow-filled hotel bed today. Yet again I missed the panel Foods Corrupted by Yaoi because I slept in--every year I think I'm going to go and be amused, and every year I sleep too late.
I'm not even into yaoi manga because most of it is, frankly, not very good storytelling, but I bought a stack of it because for $2 a book and one free for every five you buy, I couldn't resist. Hopefully some of it will be good, or at least amusing, and if not, no big loss! (Yes, I do ship plenty of m/m pairings and in fact love pairings of all flavors, it's just the actual canon yaoi manga tends not to be so great as a whole. I'm sure there are exceptions, though!)
I love how Yaoi-Con is so easygoing, accepting, and entertaining. There's just a wonderful attitude and spirit to it. It's definitely my favorite smaller convention. I guess they're going to be moving it to LA, which is disappointing and makes it much more difficult for me to go, but I'll probably still go every year. I hope, at least. I really think it should stay in the bay area, though, no matter what DMP wants to do. :( I tend to get nervous over big changes with cons I love, but hopefully it'll retain its current awesomeness level.
Too tired to say much more, I'll have to write more tomorrow once I've gotten some sleep and relaxing in.
