Back from EuroPrideCon!
I always tell myself that when I get back from a con, I'll write all about it. And then I don't, because I get home and all I want to do is sleep for several weeks. So by the time I get around to it, I've generally forgotten everything I was going to mention. But here's what I have to say about EuroPrideCon:
It was so much fun!
The panels were interesting and informative, and the hotel was nice, but the best thing, as always, was meeting people. I'm basically an introvert, but it's amazing how fast all those social insecurities fall away when you're actually in a room full of people who are into the same things that you are! And it's just wonderful to meet people who you have only otherwise met online. It's like you know you're friends, you just have no idea what the other person looks like!
I think the most fun panel was the one about co-writing, which JA Rock and I shared with LA Witt and Aleksandr Voinov. It started off politely enough, and then denigrated into a discussion about wine being the cure for writer's block, and I think that Lori threatened to steal JA away from me. Fine. You know what? Aleks and I will be perfectly happy without you both!
Then, after the convention, JA and I repaired our relationship by heading to Salzburg, Vienna, Prague and Berlin. And also Garmisch-Partenkirchen, which I totally recommend to anyone brave enough to try and spell it. So, so beautiful!
So now, to make you jealous (if only of my brilliant photography skills) here are some pics of some random dirty things we saw in Europe:
Wank Mountain. The happiest place in the world.
Creepy puppet hands - you're welcome!
Even Coke is more permissive in Europe.
If you can't make it to Wank Mountain...
An awesomely intricate cock ring!
So, thanks Europe! And, day job and budget permitting, I hope to see you again next year!

So great you had a blast! These kind of things really open the inspiration floodgates, don't they?

Sounds like a blast. Aleks is the only GR person I've met in the flesh. Great conversationalist, right? Glad you had fun.I've only been to Prague of those cities, which was lovely. The Con was in Munich? Still need to go there. Friends, Oktoberfest, yes!
i have only just realised the cock ring is two acrobats (slow emma is slow)I looked at the pic, ate breakfast. showered, dressed, all wondering why it was that shape. I was thinking "made to look like bamboo . . . ?"
That's quite some time given to pondering a vintage sexual aid locked in a glass case in a far-off land
i did nearly the same thing. i was just like ...that's an awfully knobby cockring*goes on about his day*

Aleks is hilarious! And Prague, oh wow! So beautiful!

It's incredible, right? Probably not very comfortable or practical, but beautiful!

Ah, but it's so pretty! Enjoy your day!
Which one was your favorite? I've been to 3 of you & JA's 4. Somehow I missed Wank Mountain though. I feel cheated.
Oh, you must got o Wank Mountain! It's at Garmisch-Partenkirchen (which I've probably spelled wrong) and it's an incredibly beautiful town! I don't know that I have a favourite though, it was all so much fun!
