(no subject)

Wow, I woke up early today, despite working a long day yesterday.

I scored some scones and what-not from La Bou for me and my coworkers.

I got my health screening done today. Everything looks good to ideal, exept my weight. They say I'm obese. Damn! I thought for sure they wouldn't notice. I was wearing slimming clothes!

Last night, my internet conked out again. I think Comcast is smoking crack. It was back on this morning, though.

Okay, back to work.

Dundracon Report, Day 1

I have safely arrived in San Ramon. Tomorrow shall be a big day.

I got off work by about 12:30pm, left for home, packed up, pestered dslartoo, fed the kitties, jammed off to get lunch and then hit the road.The drive was splendid. The sky was lovely.

As I walked into the hotel, it began to rain. Initially, I was going to walk directly into the lobby, which was the farthest walking distance. Due to the rain, I chose to detour to the nearest entrance which would put me directly into the geektivities.

Serendipitously enough, patricks happened to be walking towards me in the entrance. This made things quite simple.

We hauled up my gear and went down to finish the booth setup. It's a nice little setup, well suited for demo games. After boothage, we trundled off to dinner. I had sushi, he had scampi.

After din din, we did some demo games of Monster Island. The demos went well, we demo'd the game to about 7 people, which lasted about two hours of playing. We used some famous monsters: Godzilla, Mothra, Gamera, Alien, Ultra Man. Oh, and King Kong and Warbot. I played the "first to die" character, regardless of the character I chose. I played Gamera and Alien over the course of the evening. Alien packs a punch, but frankly has a glass jaw.

Oh yes, and I'm buying this game tomorrow. It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine. Shut yo' mouth!

Yeah.

You're Cleopatra Jones!
