I know... I'm mightily annoyed that I don't think I can go either unless I could rearrange my childcare schedule.

When you get over here, just stay. With your accent you'll be up to your eyebrows in pussy.

But certain people, like "bosses" would possibly get a BIT narked that I hadn't shown up to work, for a month. (As tempting as that is.)

Do you have a bunch of these saved up, just waiting for the right time to use them, or are they done on an ad hoc basis? :lol:

That was ad hoc. Hardest part was finding a towel the right color. The sword I already had handy.

I'm surprised there hasn't been more discussion here regarding this convention. It's got a great line-up too.

That being said, I'm going to be there. I may even be tabling so I hope y'all come by and say hello. If you are attending contact me, it would be fun to meet up, I had a great time the last time I met up with all the RD.net crowd at the AAI in 2007.

Bella, get a babysitter. Meet me in Santa Cruz and I'll carpool us down there. :D

Gotta be done with school to make any of them. :(
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

The times that has happened. In my morning class the teacher has the lights off when giving talks, and 90% of the time I doze off.
