So I noticed I've been going through that phase where I'm not that active on SG for awhile. They come on every once and again, so to do something about it...
So let's see, what's been up with me? Went to my nephew's 5th birthday party a few weeks ago at the Rocky and Bullwinkle Family Fun Center. Wasn't planning on playing any of the games, but my nephew was adamant I play laser tag with him. He couldn't decide whether he wanted to destroy me or be on my team for awhile, until right before the match (he decided to team up with his uncle, as well as my and his mother's teenaged cousins). From there we absolutely destroyed a team of little girls, with me getting the high score of 860 (whoohoo, a grown man stomping a bunch of ten year olds!) Those girls were tough though, one of which kept going berserker and charging into battle like an angry cowgirl.
What else? Finally bottled my mead that I started brewing a year ago. Took several hours of preperation (most of which turned out to be unneccesary), but after a year of waiting, its finally ready to drink. And man...its some strong stuff! Most of it is in 12oz bottles, and just half a bottle is enough to make my face go numb and my brain go foggy. Not sure how much alcohol is in it (I forgot to test its gravity BEFORE I started it brewing), but I've devised a way to find out when I have the time.
Oh, and some jerk with night vision broke into my neighbor's car and stole all his stereo equipment. Worst part about it, I SAW the sombitch skulking around MY car not long before, but when he wondered away, and I saw nobody by my neighbor's cars, I figured he left. Fucker must've seen me looking, and waited till I wasn't in the window, because about 15min later, he comes running by my window with an armful of shit and an infrared flashlight strapped to his head (which you can buy at your local neighborhood sporting goods store, along with 1st gen night vision). Needless to say, I'm resolved to get motion detector cameras and a shotgun
Emerald City Comicon this weekend! Excited to see Sir Patric Stewart and Gillian Anderson (as well as apologize to Wil Wheaton for almost hitting him with my car last year). Bummed I haven't heard anything about a SG Afterparty like last year though.
In any case, that's my update, later for now my friends

Side note.. One of my very good friends is a photographer, a celebrity photographer. He shoots at almost every big convention, including Emerald City.
