“The best thing about Dragon Con is you can like Buffy or alcohol…I like alcohol myself.”
–Average Drunk Smelly Geek who’s Name I didn’t bother to get
Dragon Con 2007 is over. I had to return to the real world and I’m still a bit pissed about that. There are things I forgot to set up before I left for Geek Homecoming this year. The main forget is I decided to call Dragon Con “Geek Homecoming” in honor of the oft quoted(by me and random professional geeks) Nerd Prom aka San Diego Comic Con.
The other forget was I had plans on integrating my twitter with the Groonkly Bits blog and the splash page. It was to be a live when I think on it micro blog of my experience. I’m quickly becoming an old bastard. Having words and/or pictures around to remind me of things is becoming more and more neccessary. That bit of noise did not happen but I did Twitter. Goddamn, did I Twitter. Start here and work your way backwards through the timestream if it suits you.
Do people still come here? Am I talking to myself? Those questions I’ll answer another day with Google Analytics. For now I’ll have an imaginary audience in my mind. And in my mind you all look like [insert hot talented female actress here*].
Flickr was doing, odd things or so I thought, so I didn’t bother to futurephone much of anything. I *did* manage to take enough photos with the good camera to satisfy my attacks of senility. Those will find a home here as soon as work and studies are caught up.
These things failed because the fire under my ass wasn’t much more than a pilot light for the last, oh we’ll just say, 6 months of my life. Doing something new, seeing new people, or having my mind challenged by other thoughts usually re-ignites the old energy. This year’s Geek Homecoming did not fail me. My mind burns with so much passion that it could cook a pizza in under a minute. We’re talking exothermic combustion here; not that 21st century crutch known as The Microwave.
I must strike the new things while my energy rides high. If you come here on purpose you must continue to be patient. Check here once a week at least. Send me all your spare mojo. Keep my creatice juices boiling.
Maybe this will be the time I remember that “The future (really is) now.”
