Pieces of me

Here were my favorite moments from the con:
The Masquerade: (I haven't had this much fun in years!)
The looks on the faces of the Masquerade Staff when we announced our intentions in tech rehearsal.
Discovering at the very last minute that I could recruit the grown up children of the S family to help with my presentation. They're founding troupe members and I haven't been on stage with them in over 5 years. Squee!
Stomping the church (despite being yelled at for it.)
"Nice Mustache!" (Yes, it was a nice mustache, wasn't it?)
Discovering during the viewing of the video that um... I can't really do drag effectively unless I can disguise my incredibly feminine posterior. Damn, I have a fine @ss.
Fooling everyone with my fake Masquerade Crew. OMG I didn't realize that even my friends didn't realize...
Dancing super heroes and villains! (This makes me so happy, and I don't even know why!)
Steampunk Tea:
Admiration for my props and decor.
Standing room only! Squee!
Redistributing sugar, again and again.
Everyone loved the almond milk!
It was gorgeous. Simply gorgeous.
Random Hallway Encounters:
A certain Ratman, a certain ungoth, a certain alienne's former roommate, Jay and Silent Bob (YAY!), a formerly STL currently still Kitten, a mini doc, A professor (Can I get in your personal space some more?), Satch, "roar", and assgrabbery.
A backrub, when I needed it most. I need another hour's worth of that.
Presents! Folks, Curious Cat Clothing gift certificates are always the right size, always the right gift. Hell, even if I don't wind up spending them right away, they're still perfect. I got a new set of horns. And they match the crown I received from The Munsters!
Debut of the Slinky Dress (because it is now MINE!!), and flashing it under the cloak at people. Mwa ha ha!
Dude, I should seriously wear tinsel lashes more often. I was adorable!
Encountering a Goblin King, and offering reverence.
Back and forth, back and forth, side to side, back and forth...
Pointing and Laughing at an epic fail (and no, I won't tell you what I mean. Mwa ha ha!)
A dragon. (Large mythological beast... with two flaming nostrils. And Bananas' Eyes.)

oh well. We still fooled most folks. :)
