Yeah, so I’m back from VisionCon. It wasn’t very good at all. The LARP was full of just stupid bullshit that never materialized into anything. So, it was watching the Short Track that really set it off I think. I started watching the short track at 7pm, ( I was gonna start watching at midnight, but a ref was a douchebad, so I left) while John and Steve did… something. Anyway, after the Short Track competition, John calls the room and we go over to help them on a puzzle. Well, when I get there, Mike hops into the group around the paper, so really there’s no way for me to help as there is no room. So, then this other guy comes in and they give him the paper to look at and start solving the problem the same damn way I proposed to solve it. Well, I wasn’t needed, so I left. Later, we all hung out in the room for a while, when John and Steve (see a pattern here?) went to the Mass Combat on the Really Bad Thing that happens every Con. I wanted my character to survive another con and since I’m really well rounded (which means that I’m not really good at any one thing , well other than my Political and Business Influences that is) I have a 50% chance of hitting on a d20. I think Steve has a better chance, which is why he was bragging about the two shots he succeeded on. Well, after the mass combat, Steve returned to the room, while John went… somewhere and didn’t bother seeing if we’d like to go. I know that he left the hotel because when I woke up this morning he had a 2L bottle of Black Cherry Vanilla Coke. So… officially… I’m kinda pissed that I spent all that money getting the hotel room and stuff and I really wasn’t a part of the group. I hate being third wheeled and it seems to happen a lot.
Well, in Olympic News, Apolo Anton Ohno got Bronze behind two Koreans in the 1000m Short Track.
That’s all I’ve got today so I’m gonna watch some TV and eat the Arby’s Lexy was cool enough to go running out to get for me.
:) Glad I could help. Sorry your weekend was crappy.
we should have went raving together.
I had a fifth of grey goose all to myself…it wasn’t smart that i drank 3/4 of it by myself…you should have shared it with me.
you were invited to join my weekend.
My roommate was there as well as several of my friends that went to school at our same high school. They played in the larp, you probably saw them.
Hey Tony, you are correct, that is a crappy thing to have happen. I have a sort of off the wall question though. Do you find when you walk in a group of more than two people that you wind up following behind everyone? Things like being left behind happen to me alot, but the worst of it I can see is when I’m walking in a group and can’t get in on the conversation because I can’t get in the group of people. I always just follow behind everyone. And remember, it could be worse.. you could be in Milwaukee.
Love,
Dawno
Yeah, I probably did see them, but didn’t recognize them. You should ask them if they know a Punk Rock John from the BR game. That’s the guy I hang out with.
Yeah, I decided too late that I should have joined you. Where in Springfield were you?
Yeah… I do notice that. It happened a lot during V-Con. Oh, and if I was in Milwaukee, I’d be hanging out with my friend Tim who lives there.
True, Milwaukee would be pretty awesome. It should be a summer trip for us. Tony, chatter at Tim and make that happen. Oh, and get me some chocolate. ;)
oh.. maybe it would be cool in Milwaukee. ^.^ your point. I was just wondering about the group thing. Well I hope your day gets better. Loves you
