I’ve been somewhat busy with things lately, and have been neglecting my fledgling blog. I would apologize if anyone had noticed.

3 more days, bitch-hats. Premiere League action in just 3 more days. I will be so massively drunk, I may vomit out of my eyeballs. Then only 3 more days after that until I am in Indianapolis, where I will be so massively drunk, I plan to vomit out of my eyeballs.

I’m heading to Indy to prove myself as King of all Nerds, and the nerdiest thing in the universe, GenCon. I, by no small stretch, did not want to go to this thing until I started reading into it. A few things might make this the comedy event of the season.

1) A Dance

A quote, taken directly from the event site “Bring your best goth clothes”. 500 nerds at a dance is already funny enough, but you make them goth as well and I think we have something I will bring my camera to.

2) L.A.R.P.

It stands for Live Action Role Playing. Nothing can quite capture the awesomeness of a 45 year old man with elf ears on shouting “MAGIC MISSILE, MAGIC MISSILE” while throwing tennis balls at a bespectacled teenager in a cape. Now if this is what you do with your time, then good on you. I’m not having a go, everyone needs a hobby. Mine just happens to be being entertained by things like this.

3) A bar on the premises

I doubt I really have to say more to this effect.

So if you’re in Indy for the adventure, come say hello. I’ll be the shirtless drunk being escorted off the premises.
