Well here I am the weekend before MLG Columbus blogging after a long night of practice. We played on and off before the LAN at Walshy’s, but have been getting on consistently since the LAN. We are well-practiced. Speaking of which, the LAN was a ton of fun. So I left off on the 15th at 10:25 AM with 2 hours of sleep, one bag, and my iTouch. I checked my bag in, but realized I lost my headphones the previous night. So I bought a new pair of headphones at the airport. Clutch. I get to Washington-Dulles, head to eat, and then head to the bathroom. As I pulled my headphones with my iTouch connected out of my shorts, the new endpiece slipped, causing my iTouch to fall into the airport toilet. I now had 7 more hours to think about what just happened. With only each flight being 1h30m tops, it was impossible to sleep. Either way, we all showed up later that night.

After seeing Mason bring 3 TVs over the airplane, we discovered one was broken. So after a trip to Best Buy and the Kiaeneto Shop, I walked back with my new monitor and a new clothing line thanks to Dave. He’s probably the nicest guy in the world haha. Then I found out why he’s so nice. He was raised by his mom. She was so kind and made sure that she had dinner waiting in a Croc Pot for all 8 of us every night.

Wake Up -> Game -> Lunch -> Game -> Dinner -> Game -> Sleep -> Repeat.

Yeah we played a different amount of series, had different meals, but we made sure we used this LAN time 100%. It really paid off. Defy is a complete beast. He doesn’t miss and is smart as hell. I’m glad things worked out the way they did. Count it down. Four Days Left. I’ll let our actions speak for ourselves.

The trip home was similar to the first.  3 hours of sleep, went through the same flights, all to come home to State College where they lost my checked baggage.  Worst two flights I've had in a while. Other than that...

Shoutout to Peridious for still being the man, Roy for being awful at Wolverine, and Neighbor for loving Halo 3 theater.  Good luck to everyone who attends Columbus.
