T-con

[cthulhia]

well, fooey. even when I find the cable to get my photos off my camera, they're mostly of glass tiles, and geese. I'm not the incessant nincon shutterbug I once was. (I am looking for photos from Tcon 97 and 98, for comparison.)

Highlights from the weekend include;

• Riding the Swan Boat with olusx (alas, after my camera battery died.) Unlike Boston's Swan boats, Toronto's swan boats are boats shaped like swans, not boats with stylized swans behind the passengers. Afterwards, catching a later ferry back, getting to see actual swans and cygnets.
  
• Red Moon Rising, with owenf.
  
• Riding the 2slow4centripetal force virtual coaster at Playdium, also with olusx, my ride-buddy.
  
• Dishing, o best beloved, on a mutual, non-ninnie friend with zodmicrobe
  
• Geek-fallaciously mixing in local elboid/timster thespian at Marche.
  
• Finally meeting a few more alt.music.nin folks in the flesh, nearly a decade later.
  
• About every 3rd word spoken by paat.
  
• chuque wanting to buy a hooker to get enough players for canasta.
  
• corpseguy's spiffy magic trick.
  
• the way Clive desperately held onto the chair in an attempt to avoid being dragged into group karaoke.
  
• after how many trips to toronto, finally getting to swim in yokes's pool.
  
• Getting to know cheekymonkey.
  
• Getting along with lissyssil in spite having not really even conversed with each other in 7 years. (a fun metaphoto of us with cheeky.)

and, I'm sure I left a lot out...
