Another Rubicon Crossed

Wow... I've done something I've not done for many, many years. I registered for a convention (Origins International Game Expo) with no intention of volunteering. At all. I don't think, actually, that I've ever gone to a game convention just to play. Even my very first Gencon, I volunteered to help judge Chill.
I have friends I can stay with in Columbus, so my costs will be limited to the registration and the slots I play. It feels wrong... but I think it's a very right thing for me to do. I've been defining myself as a tireless volunteer for so long, it's time to try something a little different. If I miss judging/volunteering that much, I can always do so for the next convention.
I had much gaming goodness over the weekend, impaired somewhat by constant pain from the Knee From Hell (see my other blog for dreary details). It's hard to roleplay in a Tylenol 3 induced haze, and harder when you keep yelping from little stabs of pain. Managed to have fun, though. If I have time over lunch I may inflict details.
