hkellickBusy weekend, celebrating Dreamwidth and the Launch of the Open Beta.
Started early for us. We headed out of the house a little before 11 and met up withzorkian and janinedog at the Smithsonian Station where we did the whirlwind tour of the Air and Space museum and the Natural History museum. They barely saw anything, and I wish I'd had more time to be watch them explore things, but... who knows? Maybe some time in the future. :)
Piddled around the Smithsonians and then walked over to the Metro for the DC Open Beta party. The DC Open Beta party was big. There were.. about 18 of us, I THINK. If I had one wish, it was that I'd actually caught everyone's names, but I met a few new people in any case. And the milkshakes at the Tastee Diner were pretty good (not as good as at Cheeburger Cheeburger, however.) and the server was great. Patient, fun.. I liked him. :)
Unfortunately, it did run a bit late and by the time we got home, I was exhausted, my feet ached. I think I got the cats fed, and fell into bed.
Sunday, started way too freakin' early *gnash* but.. I was busy. :D
.. actually, I created a bunch of icons this weekend. :D
.. why yes, yes I *AM* a TMBG fan. :D
I'm still trying to find the perfect picture for another Engineering Icon I want to use.. I can imagine it in my head, but finding the picture has been less easy...
And then we got what we needed done (laundry, lunches, etc.) and headed up to B'more for Stitch n Bitch withsynecdochic where I saw a few familiar faces, but otherwise met a whole nother crew of people, some of whom I've yet to trace down through dreamwidth (but I'm looking for you *stalkstalkstalk*) And Denise is cute and sweet and not at all scary (at least not yet. She hasn't yelled at me. ;) )
Left, unwillingly, at 8, but got home just in time to feed the cats, clean up and fall once again into bed.
Today is a normal day. Back to work. Sad.
