And more recently...  
THERE WERE PIRATES. At a party. They had rum. I am now slow-moving and foggy, yet very very happy ... and I was all like, "This is a cool conference and all, but I don't really know anybody here."

Update: Met Ken Scholes finally, and he's totally cool. Hung with Dave Bara. Drank with Mark Teppo. Punched M.K. Hobson in the shoulder, which she took very well. Encountered Diana (artvixin) and husband Martin in the bar. Ditto the lovely and talented Jay Lake, who gave me a super-fly pin and hugs. Apparently I know people here after all.

[:: hiccup ::]

Internet is sporadic for me, which is to say, we have it in the room and yet I don't spend much time in the room, so I'm not spending much time on the 'tubes. So if I'm not terribly responsive, please forgive me.

:-D

(P.S. - Abbie, if you see this, gimme a call tomorrow and we'll do lunch or something if you wanna.)

Sounds like fun.

Oh and as a side note Jay Lake contributed to Metatropolis which is really quite good. You should give it a listen if you get a chance.

OryCon is way too much fun to spend time in yr room on the tubes! People! Costumes! It really is a fun con. Too bad I live in KS.

Likewise! I mean, I'd seen you around and stuff, but I'd been too big a loser to say hello :)
