I posted these in the Transatlantic thread, but I will post them here as well. 

A bunch of DTFers at Morsefest this weekend (that is me holding Mike Portnoy's drumhead which I won in the raffle...crazy).

That's a great picture, and I'm not going to lie, I'm a little jealous.  You guys look like you're having fun.

So uhh

I finally met my newly found big sister that I learned about like a year and a half ago.

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Thanks guys.

It was a really short visit. About an hour. But it ripped the bandage off, so to speak, so hopefully next time she's in town we can spend more time together. I'll admit... I was partially expecting things to go south, because I'm a pessimist. Not just with meeting her but just being accepted as her brother in general... But it was the opposite. Open arms. Hell seeing me in her phone as "Lil Bro <3" made me almost tear up :JayOctavarium:

I recently had it confirmed that I have 2 older half siblings. Never going to meet them most likely, but it's an interesting thing. Very cool you two got to connect.

I've always said that the only change in my life from all of this (finding out that my dad wasn't my biology father and that I had an older half sister and a niece) was the fact that I have a sister and a neice lol. My sister sees it the same way. She has no other siblings minus a step brother whom I don't think she's close with and I think a sister in law. My neice is also thrilled to have an uncle. Win win win. The only thing that really bums me out is the distance. She's from here, as is her boyfriend (whom I've met in the last through bowling funny enough), but she moved to Vegas after her divorce
years ago  and like... Has no plans on coming back permanently.

I went to San Antonio back in 2010 or so.  It was crazy to find out that The Alamo is right downtown.  We figured it would be out... somewhere, like the fort in that last picture.

Yeah, right downtown. We walked to it from our hotel on the Riverwalk. I went with extremely low expectations but it was pretty cool. Looks like they're preparing to build a big museum of some sort on the plaza in front of it.

I was trying to figure out where it was that Ozzy peed. :lol




Thanks, Kade!
