tonight's meetup

[juldea]

So tonight I went out to Cambridge to meet other Boston-area fans of the Boston-based webcomic Something Positive. It was a great time :)

Sadly, the guy I felt I hit it off with the most is married. Grr. The guy I talked with second best is gay.

Where are the wonderful single heterosexual men??

[Addendum the next morning: there actually were some wonderful single heterosexual men there, I think I just had a few too many beers to fully appreciate ;) ]

Otherwise it was wonderful, and I have some signed drawings :) Those will go up some other time. I must sleep now.

"Where are the wonderful single heterosexual men?"

In fairy tales and romantic fiction.

Hey, nice shirt. :)

[zonereyrie.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm single and heterosexual - but I don't know about wonderful. :-)

It was nice meeting you in any case. ;-)

[altair.livejournal.com]

heh, no comment.

neither male, nor single, but bi, and definitely wonderful ;)

[tlluria.livejournal.com]

though that's not a proposition :)

it was nice meeting you at randy-con. thanks for doing the secretarial jottings.

you were one of the people i would've liked to talk at more, but didn't get to since we left early. intended to see johnny depp, but our punishment for leaving was that we only got to see nicholas cage in matchstick_men instead, which was still a decent flick, all things considered.

pardon, i ramble when i'm not fully awake. :P

alas, unless you violently protest, i'd like to add you to my friends list because i like your t-shirt, you swap glasses and have a fun grin.

see you online.

Y'arrr, it be a fine shirt indeed.

[juldea.livejournal.com]

so true...!

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Why, thank you :) Here's another shirt-to-icon for you...

Sobriety having returned, the journal entry has been altered a bit. For the record, you were quite fun to talk to :)

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Well offering me a ride home and fulfilling the offer (rather than... other circumstances) certainly earn you wonderful points. ;)

Once the evening got into full swing there were too many group conversations and beer towers for me to have made accurate wonderfulness representations, or so I realized upon sobering up... so this journal entry has been altered a bit. I'm not quite so judgemental as I sounded ;)

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Your pirate-talk is two days late, you realize?

What makes me think you men don't really appreciate the wrapping as much as the package...

self-proclaimed wonderfulness!

I do not mind at all being added to anyone's friends list. The problem I now have is figuring out if I can handle the spam of adding everyone else to mine! Maybe I'll just have to make separate friends groups and saved pages for each of them... hmmmmmm.....

I'm really interested in this prospect of having a fun grin. I've never had my grin complimented on before... thank you :) Would that be my devilish grin or cheesy grin?

I'm sure we'll get to talk more, especially if this RandyCon thing happens more than once. :)

When campared to your four requirements there, how do I match up?

1. Man: My genetalia is an outie, not an innie, so yes.
2. Single: Yes
3. Heterosexual: About 80% yes.
4. Wonderful: Not really.

[juldea.livejournal.com]

but that's not the full list of requirements...

Living within an hour's travelling distance is also a requirement.

And you know I think you're wonderful.

[scottage.livejournal.com]

That's ok, I wasn't actually offering anyway.

[en-ki.livejournal.com]

Arrr, it always be the right time for pirate-talk. Ther be some fine frontal lobes afore yon beam, no doubt, but I've heard the ladies often prefer that the physical compliments be indirect, so it be wise to address the sheet instead.

[zonereyrie.livejournal.com]

Well, as much as I might've liked to take you home with me, I'm a registered Nice Guy(tm) and I have this little issue with personal honor - I have it. ;-) I'm just the helpful sort. Besides, I live in Worcester, I think you would've noticed it wasn't the way back to Malden, at least 45 minutes into the trip "Are you sure this is a shortcut?"

I didn't get that intoxicated since I was driving - I stopped driking early after one pint and 2 9ozs so I'd be sober to drive.

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you turned me down anyway... ;)

Jesus, that would've been bad. Sorry I was such a handful. :P

[juldea.livejournal.com]

I read S*P... and you call me a lady?

Truth on the pirate talk, though. Y'arr!

[scottage.livejournal.com]

Aroo?*

(* Confused noise)

[en-ki.livejournal.com]

Incidentally, if ye be interested in the regular grog nights in Cambridge, thar be a mailin' list ye ought to be on, and ye ought to send me mail that I might put ye thar.

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Yes, too intoxicated to drive and too intoxicated to find the bus stop (or someone to offer a ride!) are several, several beers apart. Heh.

Grin. I didn't really think I'd be in danger of not being taken home by anyone there... Even if there wasn't a group of people seeing who I went home with and how to look them up online ;) I guess I'm one of those trusting folk... although I bet it's more commonly known as "naive"...

I also tend to stock up on ellipses, could you tell?

[zonereyrie.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I think I'm right on the edge of that hour travel time - it depends on how fast your drive I think. ;-) But I'm pretty sure I got home in less than an hour last night after dropping you off.

And hey, the commuter rail runs to Worcester.

[juldea.livejournal.com]

My visit, your room, drunken JCVH, you and Jed...

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Regular grog nights featuring what type of people?

*suspicious*

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Hehe. Down boy, down!!
