Nice time out with mental_circles and an assortment of other lj-folks – Was surprised to see grrwoo there (I hadn’t seen him since ldy last in town, a couple of years ago), not as surprised to see sammystudio, and met some keen new folks in newbabel (Frank), _chandra (Chandra), home_grown_cl (Carol Lynn) and hedache (Baruk). Light convo and dumb jokes abounded over at the kids side of the table, good cheer was had by all – surprisingly little drama considering the diversity of lj-folks. A guitarist playing 70’s hits was faint but pleasant background noise. There were three tardy arrivals, whose names are eluding me now, in the haze of the morning light. They were cool, too, but on the other side of the table’s horizon, so regular convo with them was more difficult. Anyhow, I had a nice time at the “kids table”. Tina’s haircut is much cuter in person.
I’ll post pics later on, when I can be bothered to get up and go to the other room to get the camera. [edit:added.]
Baruk, the Strong, Silent type, who eats quesadillas.
Carol Lynn & Chandra – Silly heads who either like or don’t like raisinets.
Grrwoo and Frank – far-travelers, nice guys.
Tina – a woman so lovely the camera blurred the image to protect the unwary.
That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it.
Frank was kind enough to give me a lift home…he came down all the way from Boynton! I neglected to offer him some gas money, and feel a bit of an oaf for it – he seems like a swell guy.
Moment of Lyric – mp3
Instrumental – Due to a comment by and about the birthday girl last night, the term “retarded elf” is on the mind.
