Connecticon '08
I had a great time a Connecticon. It started out kinda meh because I felt old because of all the 13 year olds running around. I've just outgrown the whole fanboy thing and couldn't get into the spirit of what was going on around me. Then I realized that all the people my age who would be there were probably at work, but that didn't really help much. I just wanted to frolic and be free, but there was no one there for me to regress with.
But then Adam found me and sucked me into Audra's fantastic LARP that she and some friends of hers had created. It was amazing and so much fun. She's going to be running them regularly and I'm excited that I was invited to participate in future events.
That made me feel better, but the drive home was still a little sad and emo. I don't know what I feel like I'm missing out of life. I have a good job, a wonderful wife, friends who I know care about me (even though they never call), and a comfortable life. I wish I knew what my subconscious thought it was lacking so I could tell it to shut the fuck up and be happy for once.
Now, on a somewhat related note:
