I missed the
LiveJournal content strike. Or maybe I participated in it, since I was too busy to be using LJ…
On Wednesday I went to a piano recital held by
an acquiantance I haven’t seen since high school; there were lots of other people there that I haven’t seen in ages, mostly former classmates, but I ran into my old boss from a previous job too. Needless to say, there were lots of people whose faces or names (or both) I’d forgotten in the intervening years… sigh. At least the music was wonderful and amazing.
I found a
pack of simfiles that turned out to be a lot of fun.
A couple weekends ago, Khan got Smash Bros. Brawl and invited Poodle, ’baasan, and I to come over and play. We ended up playing all night, it was pretty awesome. Last weekend J and I raided Khan’s for the Wii (Smash) and PS2 (Katamari Damacy), that was great too. On the downside, it means that I’ve been missing my weekly dose of Metroid Prime 3 and Hayate no Gotoku for a while now…
This weekend, I drove down to J’s place to replace a computer fan that had died a horrible screechy death. We dragged Poodle along and attended the local
sci-fi/fantasy/anime/gaming convention. I came back with a wallet about $100 lighter (in exchange for manga; GSC Revised 1-4 and Translucent 2-3) and a few sticks of Pocky from winning at the 2-hour “Name That [Anime/J-Pop/Game] Tune” panel. (Not to brag, but I won quite overwhelmingly. It was great fun.) Most
importantawesomest of all, though, we attended a panel by the artists/writers of
The Devil’s Panties,
Questionable Content,
Minimalist Stick Figure Theatre, and
xkcd, and I got to play some DDR. I got A’s and B’s on
1234 while J and Poodle switched off. Lazy slackers :P
