Farewell MegaCon for now (2010 plans within plans….)

So upon the glorious news that BotCon 2010 will be in Orlando next June, it became clear to me that it is just frankly my own lame destiny to have it so close to home the same summer as Star Wars Celebration V.

However, this BotCon announcement is not without it’s own geeky repercussions to me personally. For the first time since 2005, I think I’m skipping MegaCon, of which I’ve loyally attended in all it’s insanity. With the impending awesomeness and expense of both the toy robots extravaganza and the annual Lucasfilm celebration of arrested youth, I’m afraid MegaCon is simply a con too far, as is JoeCon in Rhode Island. My plastic army men loving peeps will have to wait until another time to meet the infamous Agent Morris (aka Agent of Doom).

The way I see it, the cost of my plane ticket alone could get me my pre-registration for BotCon. That, and I ain’t made of money. Gotta draw the line somewhere.

Star Wars Celebration V is a similar matter. I kinda figured I’d never ever get to go to one without extreme expense, but alas, in my own backyard!

2010 is already shaping up to be one hell of an awesome, shamelessly lame and expensive year for me. But now I’ll have both of those supreme Con experiences under my belt and I barely had to even go across the street to do so!

And let’s face it, it ain’t every day you can get to finally meet the Indiana Jones of toy robot ads, is it?

On a long enough timeline, all blog traffic reaches ZERO -OR- Holy shit I haven’t had a new entry since JUNE!

I’d been thinking about this blog recently.

Thinking about how I used to rather infrequently blog about nothing and loserdom. Thinking about all the plethora of abandoned blogs and toy sites I come across in my interwebz travels when not lurking on cosplay sites looking for great renditions of Morrigan. And I’ve thought how I didn’t want to become just another abandoned loser blog. I want to be AN ACTIVE loser’s blog.

How I missed those days of needless typed drivel. And if you’re reading this entry you either:

A) Know exactly what I’m all about and miss the bad old nothing days of DOOMblog.

-OR-

B) Have no idea just what the hell I’m going on about.

I almost rather hope it’s “B”, cuz if it’s “A” you may have gotten tired of coming here and seeing the same damn Hasbro promo shot of Transformers Animated Rodimus for 5 months (that may actually be happening after the smoke clears from the Bayfomer-explode fest.) But I write this entry to say, I’m back from the dead like a toy collecting Jason Voorhees and I’ll keep my mindless spewing for the 5 people who have me bookmarked!

See you in the movies!
