Party Report

[nemorathwald]

The ConVersation pre-con party on Saturday was a blast. Much tasty food was consumed. Jokes were told. Surveys were filled out in amusing and collaborative ways. We all swam clockwise in the swimming pool until it was a giant vortex. We heard each other sing new parody songs. Bill gave a tour of the hotel. We played Navia Dratp and a huge game of Settlers in the atrium at all hours of the night to the accompaniment of Davroz on the piano-- while cosette_valjean, tired but not wanting to miss out, dozed on a sofa. Finally the remaining eight of us went to the nearby Denny's at 3 in the morning.

There was much talk in the hot tub along the lines of "this is so great, why is it that we haven't been doing this three or four times a year?" Sunday morning we looked in the donation jar, calculated the expenses, subtracted, and realized why we don't. But we got preregistrations and lots of fen now know how great our hotel is.

He found out about it through me. I had to explain what both "fandom" and "Fen" were. He DID know a couple of people from other events, though.

We didn't arrive together, but his purpose for being there was supposed to be a date with me. Heh. We all know how THAT turned out.

No, I didn't know how that turned out. Sorry for monopolizing so much of his time with games.

It wasn't your fault, it was his choice.

As for how it turned out, the short version is that he's been lying to me since the night we met. The longer version is in my LJ
