Last bit o time here
So last week I stayed with Erin, which was nice. New York is a pretty cool place if you are hanging out with people who live there.
Last weekend was Husky con, the ending event of what would otherwise have been an unplanned five weeks. I'll spare you all the boring details and just end with I played what was perhaps the best weekend of gaming in my life. I won everything I played all weekend, including two rounds of play testing a new game David Norman (professional gave developer) is working on, three other games I'd never played before against experienced people, and two games of puerto rico, three of settlers, and 20$ in poker. I was on fire. Untill Sunday, when in a moment of euphoria, I pulled France (my favoite country) for my final Diplomacy round. Well I cant say I would do anything differently, but all three people moved against me and i was dead... REALLY REALLY fast. Needless to say I wasnt pleased.
I stayed untill monday however, the extended Husky Con weekend was great, really really great. I love dip, and I love dip people.
This week is unplanned. I drove part way on Monday until the traffic was bad and then stopped at mu uncle's. I did some more of the drive to North Baltimore to visit laura today, and tonite I'm going to silver spring to spend the last three days I have with my grandmother. I levae for CA on sunday.
All in all, I had a really geat time on the east coast return from China tour. I'm really pleased with every aspect except two. One, that I still dont have a job, and two that there is one person I am intensely pissed off at, due to never callling, ignorning invites, and being a generally confusing, sending mixed messages, and well you get the picture. Being in a situtauon for weeks of being increasingly angry with someone sucks, but hey thats the game that people choose to play sometimes. Leaving the east coast is going to help I think, seeing as this situation will likely bear no further developments on my part, regardless of job location. I've put too much time effort and though into this as it is. While I feel like i want to be done, I'm now doubly pissed at the fact that I spend so much time still thinking about it. ARG!
Anyway, hope my ambiguous rant doesnt piss anyone off, and I dont think anyone will think its them except the person who it actually is. I'm off to my grandmother's and I'll be off line for a few days, but I still have my cell if anyone wants to entertain me for my last few days. Even phone calls are nice as I'll be sitting and staring at TV at my g-na's.
Be well, all of you.
