Joy and Thankfulness

MagicCons are always special and a good time. This one was no different.

A lot of work goes into these events by a lot of smart and incredibly talented people.

As we celebrated the end of the show, a group of us in the show office went around and shared a one-word answer to represent this show and weekend.

My word was 'joy' - working for a game company can feel sometimes like a silly job but there is no more important sensation or feeling to people these days than that one. And everywhere I looked, everyone I spoke with, and even what I felt inside as I walked the event... It was joy.

Unfiltered. Pure. Social joy.

This evening, after a great dinner with coworkers and now back in my hotel room with my feet up and resting my poor aching lower back - that joy was bloomed into thankfulness.

Thankful for the road I'm on. Thankful to call so many of those smart and incredibly talented people my friends. Thankful that I get to be home with Katie and our dogs tomorrow. Just thankful.

What a magical weekend. Pun fully fucking intended.
