It's early morning right now and I am having trouble sleeping because I think I am excited and nervous about my trip to Vegas. Most people know I do not enjoy flying. I have done it many many times and overseas as well but I just don't enjoy it. I think it's because I enjoy control and I know I have a lack of it. I am catching a first class flight to Dallas and then another one into Vegas.
I talked to El_Jefe and we both realized that we are flying into Vegas within minutes of each other so we can actually share a ride. Lizzie should be flying in with him as well. I got a myspace message from Shawn saying he wanted me to get like five minutes of footage of the Adult Entertainment Expo (AVN) for the show I am going to be on, "Talk Show with Bob Wiltfong". What he probably didn't realize is that we expect to get much more than that.
I spent the evening with Max, Alaina and Liz since it will be almost a week till I see them all again. We ended up eating and having drinks at Jake's Saloon. They make some good seasoned fries for an appetizer and the Mud Cake was a great dessert. Alaina tried asking for candles but I didn't feel like celebrating my birthday in this bar. Later Liz and I headed back to my place and watched a little TV. I had to pack before going to bed and now I am wondering if my bags will make it as carry-on. I guess we shall see.
I don't know how much I will be on the computer this weekend. If something funny happens I might be able to blog about it and I will try to get pictures up. A word to the people who can't make it to Birthdaycon this year, plans are already being set right now for next year.

Monday night was a good one. I ended up getting an email from Phlip saying that he wasn't going to perform because that he was sick. It seemed like everyone is getting sick so there was no blame to set. I did later get an email from Vicki saying she would probably make it and later Brandon also responded.
I got to the PIT and went right in. Vicki was already inside and she was ready to name our team for the evening. The funny thing Vicki and I discovered about 4 months ago was that we have the same birthday. So last night we named our team "Thursday is our Birthday". Brandon came in before we went on and said he didn't want to perform but needed a laugh. Vicki and I had two really good scenes and got some deserved laughs. Later we ended up going to the Triple Crown and talked for about two hours.
Today I woke up not feeling too hot, the flu bug might be going around or it was that smell in NYC two days ago. Anyway, I slacked most of the day. I did take out some DV tapes while testing one of my cameras. It was funny that I saw some HOPE 5 footage with John Kozubik saying "I am John Kozubik and drink Stella because I am a flaming homo". It made me laugh. There was also some old footage of me Toastboy and JTX during our script writing for Breaking 3, Supervillans on PCP. That was funny also.
I got a call from Bink and he told me about his schedule for the weekend which fits well with my birthday. That got me excited. He said he could pick me up from the airport. I know there are several people making the party that confirmed that got me in the mood. So far I know there is: Siviak, Eris, Vandal, Gil, El_Jefe, Lizzie, Teabag, Queeq, Banshee. Further than that I do not know.
Tomorrow I hope to feel better. I have an appointment at 4:00pm and I plan on performing later in the eveneing at the PIT. I think Liz and I will do dinner or something since I will be gone for several days. Thursday I have a 2:00pm flight to Vegas and it's cool because I am flying first class. I still have to pack and clean the apartment. Saturday
Phil Shane will be performing at the
Dive Bar for my birthday so if you are in the area swing on down.

Just under a month now till I fly out to Vegas for Birthdaycon. I am excited and so are a couple of my friends. I am flying round trip first class for free, thats awesome. I posted the latest to all the sites like livejournal, dc-forums, dc-stuff and myspace. I am supposed to perform tonight and I am excited about that. I know Phlip, Brandon and Vicki are showing up. Danny has a gig tonight but said he is going to try swing by. We haven't performed together for a week so it will probably put us in the right mood.
There is a show on SciFi channel right now called Lost Room and I think I know what happens when Dakota Fanning grows up. They book her sister. She has the same innocent spooky feel about her. I wish there was something interesting on but Studio 60 is off the air until spring. Spring will rock if I can watch LOST and Studio 60 in HD. Man, that sounds pathetic.
My RAID is giving me issues. It crashes alot lately. I think it is attributed to heat. It's been pretty cold the last couple of days, making the heat kick on frequently. I have most of the raid backed up to an appliance but since I lost my ipod I don't want to loose the newest mp3s I put on my RAID.
Tomorrow, I have to clean my apartment. I got an email from Tina that she wants me to dog-sit for her on Wednesday because she has to take her dog to the vet later in the afternoon. She is leaving to go to Florida for the holidays which is a shame because I wanted to go to see the tree and the NCB Experience with her. I am going to ask some of my improv pals to see if they want to go.
