I’m on my way home from San Diego. Back seat of the Wasserman Civic. They’re toning down their lovey dovey-ness for me.
Time warp back one day….
After Ardith got off from work at UART, I had lunch at Buca di Bepo with her and the Wassermans. Buca has a contest to win a Vespa. I’m like, ooh, I want to win a Vespa! Well, I think I left the flyers back at the restaurant, so I don’t think I’ll be winning a Vespa any time soon. Boo!
Steven split from the fangirls at this point.
I must have spent rest of the day waiting in line to go see V, which turned into the line to see Fringe, which turned into the line to see True Blood, which we finally got into. A coworker of mine got into the Ballroom 20 line earlier than us, so he managed to snag seats all in a row for us. (Thanks, Mike!)
Dinner was an adventure of it’s own. We had to wait for Steph, and then decide on where to eat. First we went to the Crunchy Roll mixer. Free alcohol and food is always full of win, but there was no free food. And we were standing up in a really small and tight area. Next we went to a place called Taste, which really wasn’t much other than a place to drink alcohol… And a lame one at that. Third location we went to was Royal India, where we ended up deciding that it was too expensive. Next door was a Starbucks where Jyun and Shizuki knew a few people. Some of Jyun’s SE coworkers and Shiz’s childhood friend. I think we spent 20 minutes just talking in Starbucks, which was too much for poor Ardith. She left us. I got really hungry, so Jyun and I just started mosying out the door without saying goodbye to get our group going. More wandering around the place, and we just ended up at Royal India again. Yeah. Slick.
The SE group was still in Starbucks when we left Royal India.
