12:54pm Friday-
Arrived in town by train where I was met by my friend Tyler. He’s putting me up for the weekend and will be attending the convention as well. Not only that, he’s giving me free reign of his place as he’s staying at his girlfriend’s place. His place has all I need… a bed and an Internet connection.
Convention headquarters are conveniently located about eight blocks away at the Chicago Hilton. A good walk or if I’m lazy or don’t want to bear the cold, a short bus ride.
The Ticket (click the link for picture of mentioned ticket, it’s one of those badges you wear around your neck) says that things start around 3pm though I may head down early to see what I can see. Rumors are that events are light on Friday.
More later…
