Fun stuff!
So, I’m reading comments in my friend netmouse‘s journal and I see peculiaire and joedecker and … I just had to sit back and marvel at the weird little circles and spirals and weaving webs we create with our friendships.
I totally thoguht that was netmouse. It was Mactavish, which is a whole ‘nother apple, and totally makes sense. *grins* whoops! Friendships, I’m afraid, no longer marvel me. Completely unmarvelled.
Ben came over with the three-part DVD of the last three shorts we produced, and I have to say, they’re pretty hilarious. I was A.D. on one, I helped pick and place sound on another, and was Director of Cinematography (as well as co-writer) on the third. Ask to see it! I promise, it’s more amusing than a wedding!
Anne and thatguychuck came over yesterday for tostadas and conversation and such, and it was so nice. Nice because of the company, and nice because I rarely ‘entertain’. I’m far from most people, and between me and another person, I’m almost always more willing to drive.
Unfortunately, gas is a bitch and a half these days, so I really appreciate these circumstances where friends happen to be nearby, and we can get together.
The day before, I met with bardicwench and twoofdtm, took them both out to the big D (Denny’s, not Detroit), and we had great fun chatting for a good five hours. Another two people made their marks in my Big Black Book, and our waitress brought Jessica drinks with three ice cubes and three cherries – no more, no less.
It’s been a long time since I’ve arrived at the D at 8:30 and left at quarter-to-two. It was worth the next day’s certain doom. :)
This weekend is a big tangled web – I may work from home tomorrow, just like today, I may galavant to Lansing to help the girl (blue_lucy for those playing the home game) pack, I may go to the Stilyagi Picnic. Which may or may not lead to CityClub. So’s you know.
Now I’m trying to remember where I commented. :)
I miss City Club…actually I was chatting with the other night auditor and I might get to make a trip to City July or later this year. Might be nice.
Actually I was at Denny’s too…probably about 24 hours after you…
Heh, well, this one was Ann Arbor – not the closest one to me, but the closest to them. :) Man, would it have been hilarious to just accumulate con-goers.
aha!
I used to go to that one a lot when I was up in A2 for Necto or Wizzywig’s
I think they probably know us better at that one than the one in Plymouth (despite us having a longer history with Plymouth). Last time we went to A2 our food was late but at least the staff noticed us…in Plymouth they’ve forgotten to fill our drinks and taken a long time to bring our food AND ignored us until we mentioned that we were local and used to come there all the time (they probably should have known that – I’ve been there a few times in the last month with my brother).
It was a great evening. Thanks for having me over, I loved it!
I’m totally up 20 points in the home game, and as long as I don’t roll a 5 on my next turn, I’ll be all but assured a place on the carousel of doom.
I was going to say “and by home game, I mean ‘a little slow’ “, but I’ll have to revise that, seeing as how you were plenty fast enough to steal the best meats at tapas!
Still a small world. Nick told me yesterday that he was reading his friends page and came across an entry talking about how much fun they had going out to Denny’s with.
Turns out, it was. Not sure where they know each other from, but it amused me!
