okay, so i lied

i had promised myself that i'd talk to more people i didn't know than people i did know at the blog meetup last night. i didn't succeed. exactly. i finally got a chance to have a real conversation with gill, whom i'd met, but not said much more than "hi" and "bye" to. i also spent more time chatting with jen which just confirmed all my original, and positive, impressions. of course, i had to spend some quality time with my col-meister catching up and gossiping. i met shane (who made my night with his reaction when i mentioned my site), alex (with whom i didn't do much more than say "hi" and shake hands) and nelson's new lavagirl, emmy. of course, the best part was meeting davin. he's just as lovely as everyone i've ever read says he is. now i know why it seems the entire city of Victoria is in love with him. then again, how could i not be impressed when he managed to make a photo of me which i'm not too embarrassed about? while everyone is off having an exciting and interesting weekend, i'm going to be doing one of three (possibly four) things: HOMEWORK (not only is it to get my assignment completed, but to study for my mid-term); getting my car looked at (the wheel rubbing/grinding noise has returned, with a friend, and i want that gone gone gone); picking my papa-san up at the airport on sunday lunchtime; and, playing cards with my friends whom i haven't seen in WEEKS. oh, i also have to clean my sty of an apartment. with the being away and the crazy schedule i have totally let the place go. then again, my "sty" is other people's "kind of messy", but still. it's all about working within your comfort level, right? yeah, i'm a party animal.
