A perfectly me weekend: 2015 edition
Jun. 2nd, 2015 11:44 amFriday night I went to the ManRay 10 year reunions, where I talked with lots of old friends and made some new ones. The night devolved into the perfect storm of drinks and dancing, with conversations spun through as well and a complete absence of wistful gazing or pining. Sara and I stayed up afterward singing along to Rocky Horror and having more sangria until sleep claimed me around 4:30.
Saturday morning I showed up at 10:00 (on time!) to help Hyson move her belongings into Cris' apartment. I overestimated how fast our "professional" crew of moves could unload the truck, and underestimated how many books she owned. I was convinced at one point that Quang was just handing the boxes through a window back to Forest, creating an infinite loop of boxes. We finally go her move in, which left me plenty of time to shower and nap before driving to Salem to celebrate Johanna's doctorate degree. Hours sailed by as I talked with friend after friend, including one which I had a very turbulent relationship with. That was long in the past, and the two of us have moved on. I was also partially eaten by Tegin's baby Oden. What can I say? I'm tasty. I gave Jackie a ride home from the party, and it was only then that I learned one of the guests at the party worked on the special effects for Agents of SHIELD. I could have spent hours talking with her about the cast and crew, like Jackie did! *shakes fist, roars KHAN*
Sunday was very chill until I caught up on Game of Thrones at Michael's house. The problematic scene with Sansa seemed less dire on a second viewing. Thankfully I didn't give up on the show, because then I would have missed out on possible the best episode ever, "Hardhome." Everything about it was great, especially the last fifteen minutes or so. It was almost Fury Road awesome.
Today I follow up on some leads from the Reunion. I have one standing offer to hang out, and two other people to ask out to get to know better. It's something I'm long overdue to start doing again.
Oddly enough, not a single die or Warhammer figure was touched all weekend.
