Got our tickets! Well, our reservations for a room.

Right. We've made hotel bookings for a nearby hotel, and are now set to go to the New England Webcomics Weekend. We'd go through and register for the event but... well, it's a no-registration event. Regardless, it'll be pretty cool to meet some of these folks in the flesh. (I'm in particular hoping to meet the folks who helped me propose to Wednesday. I owe them big time.)

I also figure Weds and I can get drunk with Xaviar Xerexes and Gary Tyrrell -- the cute one and Ringo, respectively, of webcomics commentary. Granted, no one's coming to see us -- we're all just attending this shindig the same as anyone else -- but it'll be fun to compare professional notes. ("Wow -- you write your stuff on a computer too? Awesome!")

Mostly, I figure it'll be fun to say "dude" to people, touch David Willis on the forehead while I listen to him excitedly talk about Superbook with Weds, and maybe finally give Jon Rosenberg the scotch I've been meaning to give him for close to five years.

That sounds great! Have a good time.

I suppose, if such a thing were held in the Midwest, I'd be the only one there.

Getting my "Duuuude!" in early, but yes, looking forward to seeing you & Weds, along with everyone else that's participating. I'm still doing a slow boil about the Arisia 2007 situation that kept me from witnessing your actual proposal.

I'll do a New England Webcomics Weekend plug over at mikescomics.

Man, I wish I could make it. Hopefully this will only be the first one...
