To start with, my flight out of Columbus was delayed by almost 2 hours, and I didn't get into Boston until about 9PM last night. In blatant disregard for my travel-weary state, Abaci forced me on a death march of over a mile, in the rain, to go get dinner at Anthem. The food was amazing, though, and I got to meet his fiancée, Kwyl (her character name in Rift). We got some Shrimp Corndogs to start with, and for dessert, we all had some of the best bread pudding I have ever had.





NOTE: It is almost 1 am and I am about to fall asleep at my laptop. I have a ton more to post and will do so tomorrow, but I am just out of gas right now. Instead, I will just post some photos from the day and from the Trion party this evening.

Will try to have more posted tomorrow guys and girls! ]]> Ryath https://archive.aureusknights.com/entry.php?8-PAX-East-2011-Friday-Update https://archive.aureusknights.com/entry.php?7-PAX-East-2011 Thu, 10 Mar 2011 20:31:42 GMT Hey everyone,

I've wanted to start blogging on the AKS site for a while now, and I figured there was no better time that during my trip to Boston and PAX East to start. I am going to try to keep this updated through the weekend with information and a pictures. If you are familiar with PAX, and you want pictures of anything in particular, let me know and I will try to get some taken.

In other news, my PAX badges never made it to my house, so I am going to have to rush around when I get to Boston this evening to get them picked up for tomorrow. PAX Support has been very communicative and friendly though, and I expect no problems. If I don't get them picked up tonight, I am sure I can snag them tomorrow before the doors open.

I can't tell you guys how psyched I am to be going. Not only do I get to meet some fellow AKSers face to face for the first time (there will be pics - I promise!), I get to revel in a sea of fellow gaming geeks like myself. I've had a rough couple of months, and I feel like this trip is exactly what I need to recharge my batteries going forward.

Back to the airport: It looks like I may be one of only 5 people not flying in a suit or dress clothes. Oh, the joys of flying during the week.

More to come!
