4 years later here we are, 2 months out.
I've a feeling I'll be the only person in my peer group going so I'll be a fairly solitary creature all weekend. The 'ticket' price was just that bit too spicy for most while I got a very early price.
I'm feeling somewhat at a loss of what to do, in that regards, when half the reason I still go to cons is to meet up with mates and get utterly hammered during the pub quiz. Actually engaging with people I don't know will be one motherfucker of a stretch. That and the whole thing seems to be more of an ecumenical congress of science fiction, a cavolcade of ritual, tradition and funny smoke.
The only tradition I have from cons I've attended with mates is getting so blasted the night before than I'm probably still well over the legal the limit the next afternoon driving down.
I'm still sort of stuck for what to actually do there. Either way, I'll have the camera to document the event.

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.
