A Convention in Pieces

Okay, this has been hectic. And I suck for not having this as smooth and organized as I would like to have done. But it is what it is...

Just finished getting tattooed. And it hurt! Imagine.
Somehow the vibration from my ankle bone worked its way up to my teeth.

It was nice. And I can handle nice every now and then. But the tattoo?

The tattoo was (and is) lovely.

I'll throw up some iPhone pics later.

So I found myself in a hectic rush. Everything was easier this time around, but there's still the mental checklist while leaving that seems to hold things up a little. It's always nice to be able to pick up forgotten supplies from vendors, but if I already have it...

So far, every time has presented an initial mess of arriving and unloading. It's fun watching random people get pissed at the chaos. But this job is great, so letting it slide make sense, right?

I know this post is kind of random, but don't mind that. My mind and process is a bit scattered.

This time I brought the Macbook, the Wacom and my trackball. It might be overkill, but it's comfortable to at least have them around. So much so, it's my first item to setup. Then the power supply, then the dental bib, tubes, caps, and the routine. I love that the Hyatt has a business center right here in the convention room. Not having to pull a printer around is wonderful. And $0.75 for a print is worth it.

When I think about stuff like that I feel dependent. I pride myself (well, a little) in not being dependent on anything. But when I stop for a second and analyze my need for wifi... it's easy to see the level of denial.
