You do not blog about Post-PAX parties.
Wait…oh shit.
Well, screw it. We’re already here. So yes, I went to a party last night! It was amazing, easily the best party I’ve ever been to. And I’ve been to, like, three of them, so clearly that makes me some kind of fucking expert.
The shindig started up on the Penny Arcade forums, where one of the Omeganaughts who lives here in Seattle invited the local PAXers to a barbecue at his place. We enjoyed some booze (read: a lot of booze), grilled meats and salty treats, there was lots of Rock Band playing and an impromptu fight club. Except for time with the missus I can’t imagine a better way to spend a Saturday night.
I reconnected with my friend Agent Beryllium, whom I missed the chance to rock with at PAX and met a bunch of other awesome folk. A couple of the regulars from Gamma Ray Games, which is quickly becoming my preferred geek shop, a dude who looks uncannily like David Tennant and is responsible for creating the PAX Prank tradition, our illustrious host who’s apartment made me feel unsuccessful and inadequate and a girl who was named after a famous Star Trek character. All definitely folks I want to invest the time in getting to know.
So that was the weekend! Now I’m going to sleep off this hangover and try to scrimp together some money to buy a table. Maybe even a table and chair. Oooh, fancy living.
Also, in more official-type news, you can look to your left to see my Twitter feed. I’m not sure exactly what it’ll be used for other than short observations right now, but when the comedy/acting thing starts to pick up some steam it might actually serve some useful purpose. Exciting! And there should be open mic dates, as soon as I get some money to buy more than rice and hot dogs.
