This is actually the second post I’ve written from my little niche in the hall. The WordPress iPhone app ate my first one. And since I can’t remember anything from five minutes ago, much less a whole blog post from hours ago, it is gone forever. And it was a damn fine post. It’s really a shame y’all had to miss it.
On to more important matters: CyberLizard*Con. Or, as they insist on calling it, Dragon*Con. Today has been a blast! I’ve spent most of the day on the Skeptrack, watching such skeptical luminaries as Phil Plait and Steve Novella. As a matter of fact, Steve is standing right in front of me as I type this. There is also a young lady in a green body suit and a thong. Sorry Dr. Novella, you were saying?
Even more cool than that is the awesomeness of the Skepchicks, all gathered in one place. Holy crap, it’s The Stig! What was I saying? Why, no, I’ve never heard of ADHD. Why do you ask?
This place is a sensory integration nightmare and panic-attack inducing for those with social anxiety. But I’m surviving. I got to hang out with one of my oldest blogging buddies, Perky Skeptic! And she does indeed speak with exclamation points and actual sqeeees. She’s fantastic fun to hang out with.
If today were all there was of Drag…er, CyberLizard*Con, then it still would have been worth the trip. And there are still three more days! I’ve got to go to some other panels, though. I haven’t done anything that wasn’t reality-based yet.
Oh, and I am totally wearing a costume next year. Leave your ideas in the comments.
