For the record I would like to state that I am terribly jealous of everyone that gets to leave for Pennsic this weekend. Or earlier than I can get there, for that matter, which won't be until Aug. 1st. Booooooo.

Stupid corporate job with stingy vacation alottment.

Otherwise, I'm so ridiculously excited it's almost comic. So much to finish up but it ( Read more... )

You're the mad scientist, make with the building of a time machine!

Dr. Doom did it.

As part of the Confederacy of Evil Genius we have to sign a waver that states that we are not allowed to:
1.) Harm puppies and small animals**
2.) Litter unnecessarily
3.) Disrupt the time-space continuum -- mainly b/c it would be incredibly annoying to set up an overly elaborate scheme to take over a wealthy territory only to find that some other doofus went back, changed a street sign, and subsequently altered the path that your nemesis will be travelling to fall into a trap that will no longer work. It's a whole big thing.

And just look what happened to Dr. Doom. I have to progress further in my research so that i can eliminate the Confederacy competition -- then it will be no problem. ::sigh:: Until then I suppose I'll have to be patient.

**This clause is waved for scientific/medical research.

Well I guess that makes sense. Too many people mucking about with space-time can lead to problems. {ref: Dr. Emmett Brown and his deLorean.)

But I deny that Dr. Doom isn't awesome incarnate. He is like the only person who can refer to himself consistently in the 3rd person and get away with it.

Yeah, and the amateurs are the worst b/c they always misplace something or accidentally run into themselves.

Well, now, there's no denying that Dr. Doom is the awesome. I mean, clearly. I'm just saying that he certainly had his fair share of adversity and I'd prefer to eliminate the competition before it becomes an issue.

The week before Pennsic is always the longest and the most stressful week of the year. So much to do, you want the time to pass quickly, yet you need more time to get it all done.

Haha, exactly. Fortunately the anticipation adrenaline keeps me revved up and excited so I have the energy to pull it all together :D
