It almost didn't happen. I have had, as of late a bad habit of not falling asleep till about 5am (and I don't recommend that if you want to have a normal life). So about 3am Thursday morning I see a tweet from Ken Levine saying he was going to be at the exhibit, and that's when I threw out ALL my plans for the weekend and went out there for this. Imagine to my surprise when the game celebrity list got even bigger as the weekend went on...
