what a great weekend!!

Got to the hotel just after 10:00 on Thrusday and started setting the network up. got a good signal and a connection to the firewall. along with ssh access to the firewall. Then I went back to work for 4 hours. Back to the hotel in the evening and got the rest of the network set up. all of the user stuff done. Thrusday night parties were great!! I had a kick ass time!! Never have I seen a thursday night at a con go so well. The Revenge of the nerds party rocked. thank you [livejournal.com profile] 9jack9 for everything, especially my rockin T-shirts!!

Friday was music day... set up the music servers and a play list with a few hunderds of hours worth of songs on it... played in the con room the entire time. then the Mr. Fantasm contest... I wore a business suit to the contest, really nice grey one. I brought a bag with me and a list of about a hundred things I was going to do on stage, juggling, oragami, poetry, improv... all kinds of stuff... we had 3 minutes to impress the judges in many catagories, inteligance, strength, sinsitivity, ... etc. I started off by doing a little comedy about the network connection to the hotel... I knew I couldn't get all the things done that I wanted to so I asked the audience... "what would you like to see me do?" at least 10 people at the same time yell out "STRIP!!" heh.. I was prepared for this too.. I was wearing my devil underware (evil grin) so the show went on and I did a fabulas striptease for everyone. it came down to the end and I won!! I am the first year Mr. Fantasm!!

/me does the Mr. Fantasm dance

Saturday I had to do some sewing on my friend sandra's mini-skirt, she had broken the zipper and I had to take the old one off and put a new one on... I didn't have my thimble and did a horrible job on it.. but it worked and it held.. I need to go back and redo the stich I put in and add a second stich. I entered the slave auction, the money goes to two good charities. I get a lot of money every year so I always enter... this year I got $135 which was the highest of any guy and 2ed highest of any one person!! woo-woo!! I was bought as a present for a guy and I wondered around parties with him and just hung out for severl hours.. it was fun!!

There was a group of several of us who wandered around parties calling ourselves "the amiba" wow, that is geeky... but fun...

Sunday was breakdown... I got home, unloaded the truck and wet to bed at 4:00, I got back up at 11:30, had a bowl of soup and went back to bed.. slept until 10:00 this morning...

I saw SO many old friends.. I met SO many new wonderful people..
thank you all for a spectacular con!!
mmmm, fabulas weekend!!

Now you know why you get a cool crown, adoring fans, but no Super Bowl half-time spot :)

Please note:

Intelligence is NOT a category in the Mr. Fantasm contest :-)

However, King Falcone did write down on his ballot for you, "Big big Brain full of computy bits - nice striptease", so maybe it helped ;-)

oh, I thought it was.. what were the catagories?

Talent
Strength
Style
Humor
Seduction
Sensitivity (maybe)

Whoda thunk the first Mr. Fantasm would get credit for intelligence? You're setting the bar high ...
