Snort & Squeak

posted in Friends, Family, Et Al., This Little Blog, WOTWIFLI |

Blogger Bash ’05 was a smashing success.  Finally got to meet G and Vitatwin last night, as well as spend time with KQ, KA, the Frog, and some non-bloggers (J and Arm Candy).  =)  Thanks again for hosting G – it was fantastic!

The night was off to a good start when I managed to navigate my way to and through G’s (WOTWIFLI) Byzantine* apartment complex with a minimum number of detours (3).  It got even better when I arrived at G’s apartment and was greeted with hors d’oeuvre, or yum-yums, as my dad calls them, and cookies.  G, Vitatwin (G’s brother) and KQ proved to be even more charming in person than in cyberspace.  We played a terrific game of Taboo (honestly the BEST game EVER), invented inside jokes (most of which aren’t appropriate to repeat on this blog) and picked up new nicknames (Snort and Squeak were probably my favorites).

I must have used up my dose of navigational know-how getting to G’s place though because I managed to get loss on the way back home from his place (despite the fact that his apartment is less than a mile from my office).  At one point my car was at the corner of the street I take to get home and the street where my office is located and I could SEE my office, two blocks away.  I still wasn’t quite sure which way to go.  I actually had to drive back to the office, which, again, I could see from where I was, and start from there.  I seriously think whatever part of my brain controls spacial stuff is defective.  Seriously, seriously defective.

Oh, and per everyone’s request, here’s the article (and picture) of the alligator eating exploding snake.  This sad snake gives new meaning to the phrase “Don’t bite off more than you can chew.”

*Byzantine and Kafkaesque are two of my favorite words.  Mostly because they’re complicated and slightly obscure words which are somewhat ironically used as adjectives to describe things that are complex and, perhaps needlessly, intricate!  =)  (*hanging head in dorky shame now*)

    You had blogger bash ’05 and I was not invited? Hrmph! (I know, the “It was in L.A.” excuse works.)

    I’m also mildly insulted, mainly because Ozan’s Saturday night work party ended up being pretty lame.

    Again, I blame G. He is clearly the culprit! And Wombat, before you chime in, it was G’s fault! =)

    Let me do the introductions. JNP is Periculum Pacis and echan is Geeky Chic, two of my only three other friends with blogs (aside from my secret group law school blog which I am not allowed to reveal to outsiders for fear of calling the wrath of the Blogfather down on me – Blogfather, I know you’re reading this!). Maybe I will host something someday (LA marathon party?). I will have to see how Roomie feels about this as she will likely have to do all of the work. I am lazy.
