Is anyone heading to the New Port Richey Repticon this weekend (December 1st and 2nd)? Outside of me and my herd, that is -- I'm taking Nicky (he insisted), my babysitter, and her little brother. A good time should be had by all.

My plan is to leave without purchasing anything that currently breathes. We'll see how that goes. Hopefully the whole "You're a responsible adult and seriously, do you need five snakes right now, this moment?" part of my brain will kick in.
