The satellites that search the night, they twinkle like a star

Some more random notes.

More LJ people: During baycon I also ran into (and photographed) caprine, cyberangel_, da_pimpmasta, figmo, glittercat13, gramina, gridlore, hellloooonurse, jhulten, kshandra, lokiz_mom, misdev, mrlogic, nolly, scendan, toddashi, wyvernwell, and zyxwvut plus numerous other LJ'ers whose handles I didn't catch, in addition to the ones I mentioned on 28 May and 30 May.

I'm always amazed that the Doughnut Ladies are still able to bring their deepfryer and fry doughnuts in their Baycon room party. They take refrigerated biscuit dough, cut the pieces in half, and fry them in crisco, and offer various sugars (cinnamon sugar, powdered, granulated, brown) and sugar-free equivalents to roll them in. They get a smoking room, open the back balcony doors and set up a fan at the front door to circulate the air through and the flavor out into the halls, and anyone who pops out on the third floor follows their nose and comes to visit.

Remind me the next time I make the 400-mile trip from home to San Jose that the Pacheco Pass (Hwy 152 between Gilroy and Los Banos) is fine in the middle of the night, but a major bottleneck during the day. I should remember to take some other route home again.

Oversights!

Oopps!

Ironically, the reason I left you off the list is not because I didn't remember you. I already knew your LJ handle, and therefore didn't write it down, and thus when i was transcribing from my notes...

You can add johno and chriso to your list. ;)

I already mentioned you guys...

[hazelchaz]

I was just wrapping up my notes -- I mentioned you guys in my very first post.

Which I saw in after I posted the above.

One of the problems with reading in reverse chronilogical order.

What a weird small world fandom is.

I surfed here through mactavish, but I'm actually one of da_pimpmasta's friends through the Arizona SF cons (and attended Fanime this year as well, though I don't think you caught the silly Azumanga Daioh penguin outfit).

Silly penguins

I don't remember such a shot; I haven't put up the Fanime pictures yet, but you should have received a card from me if I took your picture, so I'm guessing you're right.

At one point in time I was in a Dance Dance Revolution duel with the Squishy Frock of Doom. Despite being in my own personal quilted sleeping bag (10 pounds of batting!) I won handily. Weirdest experience in six years of convention attending, and that's including the table dance I once saw at con ops somewhere.

you can add me, shipofools999, to your list of LJ connections from baycon.

Gina!

How delightful to hear from you! I had no idea you were on here -- but then, I'm learning there are a lot of people I already know who are lurking around here.
