I just received confirmation that the T-shirts have been processed and shipping soon. I should have them by May 4th. If anyone wants their shirt before the Con I can ship them to you. You can paypal me $5.70 for shipping if you'd like that, otherwise I can just hand them out at the Con. PM me if you want me to ship your shirt to you and I'll give you my paypal info.

I'm driving from Kalamazoo, Michigan to the event and I'd be willing to share a ride with a person of two who's reasonably on the way. Google Maps suggests that traveling through Fort Wayne then Lima then Columbus is the same as traveling to Ann Arbor to Toledo to Findlay to Columbus, so the route would be broadly negotiable.

If I were attending the con, then I would carpool with you Dan. I'm just up north in Grand Rapids. If you have a great time and choose to go again in the future, then I might take you up on that ride. Anyway, have fun guys!

It's not too late to change your mind, they do still have tickets...
I just noticed there's an archery contest. I've shot a bow before so I might try that.

haha, yeah it was fun but not with real arrows. It's like kid-safe arrows being shot at characters from the books. Go for it. I'll root for you.

T-Shirts are in. All the names on the back match the sides. We're good to go. I'll send Amber's out shortly since she's not attending. Anyone else who wants theirs before the Con let me know. Glad we don't have to worry about these anymore...as long as I remember to bring them with me.

So, it appears that I'm incredibly bad with dates. I thought I was going to a bachelor party in two hours, but apparently I'm going to a bachelor party in a week. And then subsequently going a wedding on Friday and Saturday. Thus, no Ice and Fire Con for me.

Could I get the bride to be's number? I don't think she fully appreciates that this means that I am going to have to pay for my own beer.
Seriously this sucks man.

Ugh. Not cool. How can you put actual real-life obligations before hanging out with internet friends!
Also, yes no beer sucks but I will be bringing some of my brothers honey wine that he bottles himself.

A week away.
Based on last year, when does stuff start happening on Friday? Trying to figure how leisurely or not I should be about getting there.

There's a meet and greet thing that happens during and after registration in the pub usually. I'm getting there on Thursday but anytime after 3 is pretty much hang out time

I'll probably get I sometime between 4 and 6 depending on traffic and when I leave. Last year we all kind of hung out in the bar until the first panel discussion iirc. I still havent seen an official schedule yet but I think last year it was around 6ish.

I just got my Manderly doublet. It's weird how excited I am about it. I want to wear it at work today but I think kids would think I'm King Triton from the Little Mermaid: I also got two bottles of my brother's mead. Dornish Red & Arbor Gold which I will sharing as long as I remember to bring a bottle opener:

If I'm going to be thrown into a stew and eaten, I'd like it to be by someone well-dressed. Maybe that'll be my motto, if I start having a motto.*
Mead! I'll definitely have to buy some Michigan beer of some sort to share with people. You can get Oberon lots of places now, but I understand the others are less well distributed.
* as they say

I definitely have not been standing in front of a mirror in my doublet reciting awesome Wyman Manderly lines to myself. Nope. I have surely not been doing that...

I also think we need some sort of emphasis tags or something so you won't have to misuse the spoiler tags anymore. Seriously looks like a great time. One of these years he doesn't have a wedding to go to I'll have to jump on top of Mordion's car and hang on all the way up to Ohio.
