I am going back to my old haunts. I am walking back home again. I am going to chattacon. I was a young geek in chattanooga. My mom, my brother, and I had fallen into the sci fi community. My mom is a smoff if you dont know what that is dont be surprised. Most people dont. It means Secret master of Fandom. In otherword mom is a mover and shaker in making cons happen. I had this huge extended family of geeks, freaks and strange creatures. I grew up in world where you could discuss philosphy and quantum mechanics with someone dressed as a kligon with glasses on and a women wearing chainmail that could only be described as ornamental. We all saw the real world as someplace we endured until we could go to another con. It is a proper subculture with intermarriage, family dynasties, and of course it's own politics, but all the while you felt like you were a part of something. I have over the past few years fallen off con going. I go to only a couple a year but I never miss Chattacon. It is like going to my homeland. I see all the people I left behind. I sit in chairs with old friends share drinks and stories. I wander the halls and watch the spectical. I will sit in on a game and trade no shit there i was tales. I dont know where i am staying yet but that is typical. It invariably works it's self out. But I am returning to the hallways and dance floors of my youth. and they say you cant go home again.

This will be my last trek of craziness until after bootcamp can't wait to see you my friend. God I miss wondering the halls and causing trouble. Woohoo and I will be old enough to drink ( in the con suite).
