So, I had a long weekend of awesome. I met cool people. I got offered a job. Really I did. And not like a fake job, a real one, with math. I got invited to join a gaming group. I got a hair cut. I drank a lot of beer with my friends. I got Paul Dini to talk into my microphone. I saw some kick ass costumes. I saw some horrifying costumes. I was not goth enough for the CruxShadows Concert. I won at roleplaying … twice … for being a really good Mad Scientist. (I was not mad, I was irritated.) I spent money. I got free schwag.

All of this will be summed up tonight on Utopia’s Wednesday Rage. It will be a good show. I sense it. I am refreshed.

How many of you missed my Sunday show? Well, that’s good, I did too. Beer was involved.

I came up with a costume for myself to wear next year. Two of them in fact. I think I could pull off a kick ass Lady Jaye and a reasonably cool Baroness. This is my goal for next year. The Lady Jaye costume is easy. It involves army surplus and making javelins. I can do that. The Baroness costume will be harder, but I have a year. A black body suit will be involved. And leather. Lots of Leather. I think my Lady Jaye costume might be confused with one of the SG-1 people. (There were hordes of those guys.)

My husband has an ultimate goal. I will be Princess Leia and he will be Jabba the Hutt. I think that would be amusing as hell, but hard to pull off well. He was also thinking of doing up a Bumblebee Costume for himself… in metal.

On a side note, I made up a Dragon*Con drinking game that is sure to get you wasted.

- For every person wearing a Vash the Stampede costume, take a drink.
- For each girl whose ass cheeks you can see, offer her a drink, then take one yourself.
- Every time you spot a man in a kilt, take a long stiff drink.
- For every female pirate you see, shout “Arrr! I’d like to plunder yer booty!” then take a drink. (I stole this idea from one of my friends. Yep, ripped it off totally)
- For every male pirate you see, see above.
- For every person wearing elf ears, kick them in the nuts. If they do not have nuts, bite off one of their ears. Then, take a drink to get the foul, bitter hatred out of your mouth.
- For every person you see with dice, have them roll a d10. Drink accordingly.
- Every time you see Peter Mahue actually standing, gape openly at the sheer massiveness of the man, then drink. Also, offer the man a drink as well. Anyone who is 7’6’’ needs a drink.
- For every gnome or hobbit you see, drink and shout the word “Penis!”
- For every wanker you see wearing a shirt that says “I’m Ninja (you can’t see me)”, walk up to him, say “I want my bloody pen back.” (they won’t get it and will be very confused) Then drink.
- For every catgirl you see, drink, and then do a lewd catcall.
- Every time you see a Dr. Who scarf, drink with a british accent.
- Every time you see some punk ass kid wearing a Naruto outfit, cringe, then drink in front of them while laughing and pointing. (Because they can’t drink.)
- Every time you see the Stormtroopers march in unison or pose with a Darth Vader, drink.
- Every time you see a Super Hero, ask them if you can be their Arch Nemesis. (Oh, and don’t forget to drink.)

By the time this game is done, you should be thoroughly plastered. In fact, you should get plastered off the first two points alone.
