Back on the road again

Got up really early today so that I go to Atlanta to help Froggy out with his photo shoots at DragonCon. I flew on AirTran which is aparently a real airline. I know I hd never heard of it before. It was a direct flight which was nice but there was only light snacks for food.

On the plane I watched Walk The Line on the Touch. I then read some more of the Fantastic Four: War Zone and played some FFTA2.

Froggy picked my up and we went to the Hotel to begin the setup. Aparently we are going to have 45+ different celebrities everyday with some of the stars expecting over 300 people. Line control is going to be scary. I left my stuff to do bag in the van so found my self quite board since there was nothing to do.

DragonCon is kind of different because it is not held in a convention center but is instead held in three hotels in Downtown Atlanta. So nearly 50,000 moving between the different lobbies. It should be insane.

Went to Pig N Chik for dinner. The Meat was awesome but the sause was only so-so.

Staying at an Extended Stay for tonight only. The place is a dump and my roommate has been smoking in the room. Plus she has problems shutting up...

Watched some Bones with Froggy before heading back to my room to get some sleep for tomorrows long day.

Stupid Blogger

It appears that my emails have not been making it to blogger to appear on this blog. I am swamped at the moment and heading to DragonCon in the early AM. I will keep making the nightly updates and will post when able...

Impending Lack of Doom

Long day at dirty plant but not as long as I feared.

Watched Weeds and Eureka and played some Mass Effect before calling it a early (10:00 pm) night.

Read some more Fantastic Four War Zone. For a popcorn book this one is better than most. Nicely ties in to Continuity of the time of print.

Played some Mass Effect. Then watched Mad Men, Primeval, Skins, and Middleman while packing for the DragonCon.

Read some more Fantastic Four War Zone

Lazy Sundays should not be so busy

Forget to mention that last night was a game night at the Stop. BTW when disadvantage of a public blog is that I can't tell some stories for fear of hurting feelings...

The Jasons crashed at my place, so I layed in bed and watched last weeks Mad Men to let them sleep in a bit. I did get them up in time for us to meet Jim D, Beau and Mary Anne at the cheep showing of Death Race. The action was cool but the talkie bit were way slow.

The Jasons and I headed back to my place and I played some Mass Effect then Duece and I broke out his copy of Army of Two for a while.

We then went to George's to celebrate Q's very belated birthday. Conversation and Ice Cream cake for all!! Presents only for the BB-day girl.

Started reading Fantastic Four War Zone. I am going to try and slam through some Popcorn Books.

Under my roof

The Jasons, Jim D, Beau, Q and Sean helped me move the shit from storage unit to my garage storage.

Played a bit of the Hulk and watched Duece play CoD4.

Watched the new Psych episode.

Palindromes are fun

Especially when they are you Xbox Live achievement score. Totally unplanned but that actually makes it cooler.

Mildly productive day at work. Went to the new Rock Wood Fired Pizza for lunch. Kind of expensive but good none the less. They are building a Red Robin a couple of blocks from the office.

Went home and played a lot of Mass Effect followed by Burn Notice and Stargate Atlantis followed by even more Mass Effect.

Reading the Middleman collection. I am shocked at how faithful the Tv show is. The first two episodes are almost an exact lift from the first two mini series.
