As much fun as I had at MaxFunCon, and I had a ton and do not regret it one iota, it has made this move last forever. I’ve still got boxes in the livingroom, the silverware that got left behind…
Maximum Fun was had
“Papa Jesse, the benevolent colonel of the nerd plantation.” – Marc Maron How do I even begin to explain this last weekend? I still feel all blissed out and dreamy about the whole thing. Thursday night we left the house…
