For them what's interested

Highlights of the week for me so far (this is not my full con report, it's
my up-too-early-might-as-well-post post).

* Finding out that a long (8.5 hours) drive with stonebender and
loracs and someotherguy is fun, relaxing, and easy.
We haven't taken a long trip together before, and even the overloaded van
that kept hitting the road didn't make it a stressy trip.

* Shopping with my mom and someotherguy for consuite food and
five-dollar clothes. They are my comfort zone, and between the drive and
the shopping trip, I was completely relaxed and ready to face the weekend.

* stonebender's fun and funny intro panel, where we learned
about hobbitbabe's powers, and lcohen's loose lips,
and leback's kink, and U's strange compulsions, and the location
where ryks and hobbitbabe stashed P's body (*waves to
P -- I missed you!*) -- or at least that's the way I remember it.

* Long walks with someotherguy, sometimes in the light rain
(yay!), sometimes taking along other fun people.

* Watching the boats with stonebender. He lights up for any
kind of exciting transportation: Boats, rocket ships, hot air balloons...
and I just adore his enthusiasm so much.

* Lounging in the *bathtub!* (we don't have one at home) while someotherguy washed my hair.

* "Wow, can you believe the energy in this room?"

* Having lcohen beam smiles (and injokes) out of the back of her
head at me and kicking her ass.

* The real listening that went on at the Community panel -- brooksmoses was a real class act.

* The peaceful and fun atmo in the consuite, especially the bedroom.

* Dinner at my favorite (and most-missed) Mexican place with people I love
and people I barely know -- it was a lovely time.

* Fun reactions to my see-through clothes.

* The two or three minutes of alone-time I got to spend with firecat before more people showed up.

* Watching people I know turn into flirting machines. Con magic?

* Oh, and the orgies. Oh, the orgies. What can I possibly say? Oh, man.
Words fail me.

I went to panels, and there's another one today, before the Decadent
Brunch, to which I'm of course looking forward, but mostly I've just been
enjoying the gentle hanging-out time. I doubt anyone will be surprised by
that.

Misremembering and lying aren't the same thing.

Bathtub time (for me) = peace. I'm such a creature of the water and the woods.

If I ever become filthy rich, I'll take the four of us (Stonebender, you, my honey, and myself) on a hot air balloon ride over the wine country.

Watching people I know turn into flirting machines. Con magic? Con magic, or just being around Serene? :)

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

Alas, not flirting with *me*. :-)

Maybe you weren't noticing. (-:

I'm home, wiped out, incoherent and unable to say much more than thanks for everything you did, including (especially) being you. And letting me meet your mom so I could see where you get some of it.

And, as always, wishing there had been some magical way to expand time so we could have all spent as much of it as we wanted with all the people we wanted to spend time with...

[serenejournal.livejournal.com]

I think I would've noticed. :-)

Anyway, I loved seeing you, and my mom loved meeting you, too.
