This year will be my 5th consecutive NEST. For the 4th year, we will be doing this whole Team Canada thing. This year, we will be represented by:
Snail Shell
Tickle Emperor
Lamashtu
Evibard
Evibard's sub
Leafstk
Big_Dogg 85
Ticklish 9's
It is the largest contingent we have ever had. We also have at least 5 others not listed who have given me their dedication that they will attend NEST 2011. The thought of organizing a road trip for that many people is crippling.
Assuming I hear back from everyone in time, we'll be leaving between 10am and noon on Thursday, picking up a rental car in Rochester at around 2pm and arriving in Philadelphia around 9pm.
The only plan I have for the weekend is to participate in one of the kidnapping scenarios, which I cannot go into in any further detail. That is the way I want it. The last gathering I attended, I had one plan going down, which ended up getting kiboshed by the other person. Beyond that, even play is optional in my mind.
I'm told that there are a great many people who can't wait to see me and that I am thought nothing but highly of by those attending the gathering. I can only hope that the person that arrives meets their expectations. It's a fun paradox, isn't it? You go and be the wonderful person that people expect and all you've done is met the standard. You don't, and people wonder what's wrong and talk about it.
I will bring everyone in safely. I will bring everyone home safely. I will do my best at this scene I'm doing. Beyond that, all I will do is try to meet the expectation in front of me.
Like I've told everyone from the day I first walked into NEST: I try.
It's all I can do.
