The Fireside

Wow. This is it.  Today, I've turned 30 years old. I don't feel any older, but I remember when my Dad turned 30, and when you remember yours parents the same age as you, THEN it makes you feel a bit older.  So tonight I'm gathering my closest and bestest and heading out for drinks and supper at a pub. We're going to celebrate the occasion, but nothing too fancy or eventful. Perhaps my 40th will have a bit 'more' to it. Then again, in a few months I am going to the UK. My sister is also getting married, so there's causes for celebration throughout the year.  When I was younger I was hoping to have more accomplished by this milestone.

Check out the Guild booth: selling swords, armour, and talking about class. Bill will also be holding his panel about armour and swords on the Saturday . I plan on topping by either the booth or panel, depending on times, and discussing weapons and armour a bit; because of the series I'm writing. It is my hopes to have a booth set up (not picky of size or duration) as early as the next con.  htt...
