As mentioned here, today, March 3rd, is the PAX Winter Solstice!

We are currently at the midpoint, the day exactly in between the end of PAX 08 and the beginning of PAX 09. What festivities, rituals, and and hallmarks should punctuate this noteworthy occasion?

    I was going to play Anamanaguchi's Dawn Metropolis while I threw confetti on my bushes... although I don't have bushes, or a record player for my vinyl copy of Dawn Metropolis. I should have planned this holiday better.

    I have a serious senior level exam at 1 that I'm probably not prepared for.

    Does that mean yesterday was Power of 2 day (03/02/09)?

    And don't forget Pi Day.

    PAX 2007 DVD viewing party, then unofficial PAX 2008 DVD watching! Though, it might be hard, considering I'm at school all day. Though, the knowledge that it's the PAX solstice will help me get through the day.

    Just think about it though, around this time next year, we're going to be a few short weeks away from PAX-East.
