buhrger, ask me about Babylon Five-O when you see me

this was a good Norwescon. i didn't do all the socializing with friends that i would have liked, but i did manage a lot of hugs and cheeful waves.

highlights:

• best room yet: view corner room in the tower complete with a couch and coffee table.


• a NASA meatball sticker is now covering up the "TOSHIBA" on my netbook. sticker courtesy Bridget Landry.


• Mary Robinette Kowal's one-woman shadow puppet show.


• buying a lovely brass Seal of Rassilon pin that i can wear with business or formal wear.


• the miracle berry tasting, AKA i drank a shot of vinegar and it was delicious.


• finally making it to the Scotch tasting party (thanks, jackwilliambell).


• my request for the dance on Saturday totally got played in the midnight block of songs.

lowlights:

• got to see the Sounders game in the bar, but it was an awkward 0-0 tie


• never running into miss_swamp + failing to see solcita's concert


• unknitting


• feeling absences

overall i managed to stay well-fed and well-rested, and this trip really felt like a little vacation. i came home refreshed instead of exhausted.
