Vil-hatarn Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I will take advantage of the fact that Frosch won't be judging the familiar convesion contest til he's back to finish my entry... Still, however useful the time may be, I second Darthiir...I wanna be in Texas. Bit of a conflict with school and all though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enchantra Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Yeah, y'all missed some darn good cake too! Oh well just more for the rest of us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vutpakdi Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Well, you could actually be in Texas... but still not be able to go. I'm just hoping that next year, they will have ReaperCon the *SECOND* weekend in May (or the last weekend in April). Any ReaperCon date that overlaps May 5th knocks me out from attending since that's my wedding anniversary. No, bringing my wife along isn't an option. Okay, I'm also hoping that the Reaper Artist Con in October doesn't overlap my wife's professional conference. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyHorde Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I'm updating the house. There is painting involved, but nothing miniature about it. Especially the heavy bits of furniture in the way. It seems I need a 'green with envy' smiley. I'd rather have this whole house selling/buying/moving thing over and done with so I can run off to Texas and play for a few days. Now, if I could just find those winning lottery numbers, the problem would be solved. I'm sure they are around here somewhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannhauser Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Heh, just ask Tabascojunkie what happens if you bring your wife to a tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if ReaperCon remains the first weekend in May, I'll get to go in 2008. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pae Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Hmmm.... Wife or ReaperCon... Wife or ReaperCon... Hmm... Hmm... I'm gonna need another minute to think about that one... Darin, I think you have to marry Laurie before you can call her your wife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whizard Hlavaz Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Darin, I think you have to marry Laurie before you can call her your wife. Ah... Same difference. She already calls the shots. . . . . . Though she did admittedly come to Games Day with me. So, I guess I can't complain there. LOL. vutpakdi -- You just need to find an interest of your wife's in Texas and make it a dual-purpose trip. For me, it was the Atlanta Aquarium for Laurie. Worked like a charm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it was the Atlanta Aquarium for Laurie. Worked like a charm. Hehe, that'll be a little difficult since she has already been to the Dallas area a few times and isn't particularly fond of it. Now, if, by some chance, there is a professional conference that grabs her interest on the same weekend in Dallas and we can get my parents to babysit, we're in luck. Seriously though, my wife doesn't understand my interest in "nerd games," but she amusedly tolerates them throughout the year (within reason) and is okay with me going to GenCon, so I really can't complain.

haldir Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 kinda like having the Con on this weekend in May, since my birthday is the 2nd & just turn it into a big present for myself & then I can overlap bday pay with vacation pay. but in all sense any weekend is fine by me, really.

Yep, that's my plan for next year. (This year's present was Sophies and other bitz that friends offered to shop for & pick up for me while they were there. [thx guys!]) Maybe next year we should do a group birthday bash for everyone having birthdays during/near the con? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
