Hi Nibbs!!

I made it to Seattle very late last night (11:00 pm Pacific). I almost didn't get here because we sat on the runway for AN HOUR in Richmond waiting for a weather redirect. Hubby and I had to SPRINT through the Detroit airport and just made the flight. Lots of fun...

What's important is that we are here.

Oooh. What's going on in Seattle? I've never been, but it's somewhere I've always wanted to go.

We are visiting some friends and going to a video game convention this weekend.

Wait... PAX?

YES!!  My husband's an Omeganaut.

Holy CRAP! I'm SO jealous! Ahhh, dammit I wish I was there. You're going to have an absolute blast though.

Once again, I am SO jealous.

I'm just amazed you know what I'm talking about.  That's so cool. 

I am looking forward to it.  We were talking about going last year, but it just never happened.  It's going to be a blast.

I'm going to video tape stuff, so I'll let you know when I put it on YouTube.

Yes!  It's quite a change going from Virginia where it's been in the 80s to here where it's in the 60s.  I'm glad I packed jackets and sweaters.  I felt really silly, but it was worth it.

Unfortunately, with the layout of our building and the traffic.... it's pretty easy....  though it's odd that I've questioned everyone that worked between 8pm and close last night and opening and 8 am this morning... and no one saw anything.... Something just doesn't seem right....

Sucks that your trip got canceled.    Next year there is going to be an east coast one...although you're going to be in Australia by then I'm guessing.

True story... I saw that news about the east coast one. If I get the chance to come back and go sometime, it's definitely on my list of things to visit.

So excited for you. Who is the keynote speaker this year? Did you check out Wil Wheaton's speech from last year? It was absolutely amazing.
