FCN !!

I was hoping to have a room in a distant corner of the hotel... that was not what the gods had in store however. Instead, I am next door to a group of very loud furs who believe yelling is the only way to communicate. In their defense, the music they are playing is pretty loud, so that could be why they are yelling. Apparently, vomiting is the topic of discussion tonight, as they try to outdo one another with their stories of, "Dude, I was so f'd up I shot vomit out of my mouth across the room!"
Yeah, it's like that.
I knew what I was getting into when I came to the con, and knew that noise might be a problem. I'm okay with it for a while...
Now the act of farting has apparently captured their attention.
In other news, the con is excellent! The hotel staff have been very accommodating to me. My insulin pump battery died (that's bad) so I called the front desk and they provided me with a triple A battery for a small fee. It beats the hell out of having to find a store that's open this late, then drive there, find what I need and drive back. The Sheraton in Novi has been excellent so far. It's a great space and there are a lot of smiling faces.
Tomorrow is a big day. My panel is at 11:00 to 12:30, and I am looking forward to see what kind of turn out we get. I brought a bottle of Joe's Ancient Orange Mead for Uncle Kage, if I can run into him. Last year at FCN, he happil posed for a picture of me, but I was not in suit at the time. This year, I will be in suit when I present the mead to him! I hope he likes it.
The man can drink wine like no one's business.
My son Brandon
Nodnarb123 is also here and he has a pretty cool tie that he created with LE wire. It's really very nicely done. His friend Tyler is here too (this is his first con) and he seems to be having a good time. He's a good guy.
Looking forward to tomorrow!

I'll be interested to hear if there's something at FCN to attract a married, white fursuity kind of guy. Some aspect compelling enough to overlook the vomiting/farting/yelling/lewd PDA moments.
There are a number of guys my age (pah... Greymuzzles) that meet and talk about what keeps them motivated in a world that is dominated by the much younger crowd.
DAWWW.
