yeah, still haven't fixed/rotated any of my photos yet.
I had an awesome, kickass weekend.
A smallish party happened Friday night in Puffton for Pete and Val. I was glad I got to see some people I haven't seen in a while (and may not for a while yet) like
Eric (who talked cameras with Mike), and
Allie and Dan.
I got Pete the
ThinkGeek shirt saying "There are only 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't." and Chez Geek 3, and Val a tank top with "Talk Nerdy To Me" on it. ^_-
ellF drove Pete and I into town Saturday, where I met with my folks, and then went wandering in Porter with Pete. Finally got to Sasuga Bookstore, though their prices for what I was looking for were higher than Asahiya Bookstore by Grand Central (who I hear are closing, damn! And I was hoping to get some stuff there next time I made it to NY, alas.. maybe I should go to their Californian store). I've got my eyes on the MKR manga (which have been reprinted! But I still think the old copies are nicer), and various CLAMP artbooks.
Anyhow, went to Pink Stucco eventually, after a detour in a Lego store.
I wish I'de been artsier, but most of the photos I took were in bad lighting conditions while I was sitting on a bouncy couch.
Highlights of the evening:
Seeing cool people.
Meeting people from
#Pugglewump.
Reclining on people on couches.
People wearing nifty clothing.
Pretty light on Kris'
face (
blurry) and
back.
Shotglass Chess, which was Steve, Katie, and myself, against Frommy, Pete, and Kris. A very amusing division of teams. We won. ^_- I had 5 shots, one of which was thankfully buttershots (so tasty!). Don't believe it had much of an effect though, as I had been eating pizza and cookies in the middle.
Strip Twister. Sorry, no photos. I don't want to incriminate/embarass anyone. I'll just say it was a riot. People falling over naked on a plastic sheet. ^^ (Actually, I have one nicely sensored image I'm getting permission to post.
Andrea do either you or Nea mind?)
Ice cream cake with
sparklers.
Hearing about people's running-away-from-cops-while-lighting-fi
reworks stories.
And, of course, to end the evening,
drunken Katie looking cute.
Today, Pete, Steve, and I went to Harvard Square briefly, where some of us aquire more goodies, and then we parted ways with Steve to get a ride home with Mike/Val. I had a most comfortable ride in the bask seat, my head back, eyes closed with a smile, the wind in my face and my hair, and Funker Vogt in my ears. I dozed off a bit, extremely relaxed. ^.^
Things to do:
Make an effort to take nicer, more interesting photos.
ASHURA COSTUME.
Art for current commission.
Prereg for Otakon.
Ask for the 8th off work.
See Pirates of the Caribbean.
E-mail ThinkGeek in regards to the rolling of the two Broken Miko posters I ordered. They were creased, and thereby have white lines on the front in some places. I don't want to have to deal with sending them back.. but I at least want to bring it to their attention to roll them better.
