The fat's in the fire kids and the RNC is here. The convention has been floating over my head for the past couple of months, taunting and tempting. But the time is here and it's time to leave. Sitting here now, awaiting departure, is perhaps the most restless state I've been in for a long time. The emails have flowed freely like cheap beer at an underage party and now I feel prepared. I feel as if this downtime is a farce, an unnecessary exercise and I need to leave now.
But as this became more and more viable, I became more and more skeptical as to whether or not it would happen. With skepticism comes a certain degree of depression and let me tell you, it's fire. But when that email arrived, telling me that I should register for press pass, it changed my mindset completely. The thought of having access to press credentials during the wildest convention since '68 gives my experience meaning. Makes me feel as if having this access can make a change, or at least open the eyes of those who aren't fortunate enough to be there.
So be prepared Philly IMC, the convention is just around the corner and we're barking at its heels. I'll be writing on Philly IMC everyday, and I'm sure many others will be writing for you as well. Buckle down and grab a blunt object because this shit's going to be crazy. Res Ipsa Loquitur
