It's Not Easy Being Weird

As a recovering nerd, I fell off the wagon this weekend--BIG-TIME. I went to Pi-Con, "An event for Geeks, Nerds, and Dorks." Personally, I prefer to call it "A Celebration of the Nerdly Arts."
Snapshot impressions of Pi-Con:

• "I know where my towel is."
• "I haven't thought about Babylon-5 this much in years." 
• "Tom Smith is an underrated genius."
• "We need to put up signs for Ninja-con...and have them lead to an empty room."
• "I want a Unipegikitty:"

I came home to discover that Damsel in a Dirty Dress has given me the Strange Blog Award:
