The days just flew by, even though I spent probably 26 hours of it in a car. The drive to DC was fast and uneventful and only took about 9 1/2 hours. But the drive home was horrible. Everything from storms, bad directions (Damn you Bitchin Betty!), almost getting pulled over, bad accidents (including one chemical spill in which I inhaled a lot of ammonia), horrible traffic and me almost getting plowed by a woman not paying attention (she took out the guy behind me). All in all, it took me 15 hours to get home.
The weekend was a lot of fun. I got pwned at (It was my first time playing ever) but I am getting better. Steve failed to mention that I pwned everyone in (still first time playing), proving that I am the better pilot :).
The Con itself was okay I guess, but I felt more like a 5th wheel tag along. I did get to meet a lot of cool people. Steve and Doc suck at introductions, so if I seemed quiet and shy and all that, I’m only like that on the first date (But I’ll still go all the way ;)) After you get to know me, I’m a big ball of laughs, or at least a ball of something. I can’t wait to see these people again.
Okay, so I liked the 501st. They’re really what made the Con fun. I think I’d like to join. This year will be tough though with grad school and all. Since I plan on moving near Steve, I may have to wait until then. Was thinking of Boba Fett armor or Ep. 3 Anakin. Who knows. My wife has the costume bug now, she wants to put together a Nightsister (part of the witches of Dathomir). Regardless, school, work and kids come first.
Yesterday was spent playing with the kids and taking them to the zoo. And now its back to the grind and getting stuff done. Can’t wait for school to start so I can get it done and over with.
P.S. This is what it would look like if the Q and R were removed.
P.P.S Hey Amy…OMG, Steve!!!!
