So in the space/time since my last entry I have spent 1 of 3 weekends here in the gina... and 2 in Calgary/Red Deer. So I suppose there is a lot to post so I will get right to it.

Dissension Pre-Release: Started this weekend in a van with 6 other guys and an 8 hour drive ahead of us. Man was I glad to get inside Ricky's house, fresh air! Spent way too many hours playing cards to get NO PRIZES cuz my opponent was a JACK @$$ without any ETIQUETTE (a recurring thing this post more than likely). But it’s all good cuz after that Chelsey, Heather, Ricky and me went to the wave pool, that i didn't know existed in Calgary, and had a blast. Even though I am apparently an awful swimmer and oy vey do I hate being IT in a game of tag. Sunday was time for some more cards, but I got one of those great situations for me where I win first then played TWO of the guys I came to the tourney with, and their decks were better than mine... oh well, then it was time for the 8 hour trip back, but i got to drive, woot!

Non-Alberta weekend: Sleep. TV. Cleaning. More Sleep. Why sleep? Cuz apparently I don't know how to do that in Calgary !

This most recent weekend: Going to consider this weekend not starting til 6pm on Saturday. Went to Becky and Mike's ring ceremony and reception, its was sweet little glimpse of what Chelsey and Ricky's could be like. Played some cards with Ricky and Brad. Gave Chelsey some helpful ideas for wedding stuff, at least i hope it was helpful.

Then there was SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY! My mom and brother came to Calgary and me and my bro went to the Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo(http://calgaryexpo.com/)! It was 1337! Got to meet Paul Dini and Alan Burnett, the people responsible for Batman: The Animated Series. Humberto Ramos the upcoming artist for Wolverine. Scott McNeil, a stupidly popular voice actor, who did: Dinobot, Rattrap, Waspinator and Silverbolt form Beasties (Beast Wars if you are American). It was so cool, even got him to give me some quotes and I recorded it... will see if I can put it up somehow. Oh and I got to meet CHEWBACCA! Yeah that is right Peter Mayhew the man inside the wookie suit. That guy is GINORMOUS! Also have a pic with him and it will go up soon too, along with the artist sketches my bro and me got. Went to Red Deer for Monday, ever so briefly... sorry if I didn’t get to visit anyone reading this.

But now I am back in Regina, have to study for my exam and get pumped for Ricky's wedding... ok maintain my level of pumpedness...

But I am out for now except the great quotes from this weekend:

"Are you fisting me?" - Evan Holstein

"Nerds know stuff. Geeks are passionate about stuff. Dorks try and make stuff competitive. Don't go to the dork side." - Jedi (security guard) Knight at the Expo in response to a girl saying about "Sane fangirls" being an oxymoron.
