The blues haven't hit me too hard this year, probably because I've been too occupied with doing other things... Heck, I still haven't fully unpacked yet!
Compared to prior years, I didn't have the best of times because I didn't get to hang out with friends thanks to the exclusive lottery. Before, we would either camp out or line up early for exclusives, but that was taken away. During the con, I saw a few friends in passing, and we said our "hellos" but that was all. For the most part, we all ended up doing our own thing separately during the con. Also, thanks to the above, I had to miss out on a few panels because of the times I was assigned. I'm also a cosplayer, so I depend on that as an outlet, but it seemed that there weren't a great number of cosplayers this year. I hooked up with a cosplay group on Sunday afternoon, which was great, but it was only for a couple of hours.
This year, my post-con blues stem more from the realization that my vacation is over and I have to go back to work. The more fun I have at a con, the harder the blues hit, and this year, it was just kind of ho-hum for me. SDCC with friends is amazing, but by yourself, not so much.
