Well I'm back from Adepticon

I'm back!  After a terrible 15-hour drive through the night, and then a nap at the in-law's place in Wyoming before the final icy trek to home in Colorado, I'm proud to say that I made it back in one piece!  Ironically, my car ran perfectly the entire 2300-total-miles trip (2002 Impala), and my wife's new Subaru (2007) had issues from driving less than 100 miles this weekend.  :-p

The mile markers entering/leaving Chicago drove me crazy.  What a blatant ridiculous waste of taxpayer dollars- a mile marker every quarter mile for over 100 miles.  When it's dark it's sort of a surreal feeling too, since you're pretty much always in sight of a mile marker the entire drive.  Pretty good picture for my crappy phone camera :)

So, I didn't really post about the Fantasy Championships.  I did end up playing, and
I did well.  I didn't 'place', but I got 12th overall (out of I think 120 people?)  I'll get the battle reports up later this week.

Otherwise, I took a face and skin painting class on Sunday instead of the (too-early) Warmachine, so not a ton to report from Sunday.  It seems obvious enough that I didn't get in as '2nd alternate' for the 40k championships, sadly.  It's all good though.

The event was fun as usual, despite the tool of a player in my 3rd game in the 40k, it was overall a blast.  I'll go again next year, most likely.  I'll have more thoughts about the weekend in general later on, as well as actual battle reports for all of my games.  For now, it's time for a shower, and then my mountain of neglected homework...

Meh, I'm scheduling this for the morning. 

The good news is that the Nuggets beat the Lakers yesterday IN L.A.  Pretty big deal, though of course the league is trying to downplay it.  Playoffs are going to be exciting!
