Traveled about 16 hours in a car total.

Saw beautiful Boston for the first time.

Fail to have Clam Chowder.

Watch the new Scott Pilgrim trailer on the side of the road in upstate New York.

Watched the Scott Pilgrim trailer again the minute I got to Boston.

Played Rockband in a hotel room.

Stood in line for a hour to get into PAX.

Went to a panel about Public Relations.

Got into the biggest friend argument after said panel.

Played no games on day one.

Spent Friday night drinking at three different bars with internet friends new and old.

Somehow made it back to my hotel room.

Had Blue Berry Muffin Tops for the first time.

Played at least ten different and cool games on day two.

Waited 90 minutes in line to play a game.

After said wait, proceed to have one of the worst experiences playing a game in my life.

Stood behind creator of Bioshock Ken Levine for about 15 minutes in Qdoba

Record a podcast in a fancy hotel conference room.

Spent most of the weekend recognizing random videogame podcasters.

Realized that videogame nerds are some of the nicest people in the world.

Become over come with joy, and have to wipe tears away as we left.

Had the best weekend of my life.

@ Chris I did a show with the guys  from a very small blog called on the levels. They were the reason I made it to PAX,they let me stay in their room and let me tag along on the road trip.

You also forgot:

RECEIVED AWESOME BIT.TRIP BUTTON.

Fucker.

Kidding!  And we all missed James DeRosa. It might as well have been in the swag bags.

Oh man, Blueberry Muffin Tops are sooooooo good! But my cursed grocer has removed them from their shelves!

Sounds like an amazing time. With so much to do, it's hard to find time for games on the first day unless you ignore everything else (at least that was my experience at PAX '09).
