Friday night, we headed over to (e:mike) and (e:libertad)'s place to hang out. We got to see their new floors upstairs and a lot more of the house as it looks unpacked. It's really looking great.

The highlight of the night though was Mike's blowing showing off his blowing skills with a pinwheel.



Our reaction

Thursday was the office warming party for (e:allenstreet). The food was done by Coco and it was amazing. I definitely ate way too much dessert.

I had to go through the creepy tunnels of the cell and virus building at Roswell the other day. Complete with 50s style lab posters - I was surprised none mentioned duck and cover in case of a commie attack.







(E:Paul) had a 5th monitor that I got to steal while I was over there. It's an okay monitor in terms of quality, but it has a touch screen. I got it to work with Linux with by modifying xinput in Fedora with the xinput_calibrator - you have to set the input area to just include the touch screen and not both monitors.

Was awesome. I drove up to Toronto in the second fastest drive of my life. It was terrifying. But we made it just in time to get half of Keith, (e:terry)'s old high school pal's set.

The whole night was happy hardcore. We were completely sober but I had so much fun dancing with the people there and the music. (e:casey) said it's because Canadians are polite and awesome enough for that.

The next day (e:terry) wasn't feeling well, so we had breakfast in the gayborhood and went home. Still a very fun weekend.

After the Farmer's market, (e:paul), (e:terry) and I went to Jessica and Sameer's engagement party at Merge. I have never been there but the food was some of the best I've ever had. Almost everything was vegetarian too.

Jessica's friends did a really nice job organizing and decorating for the dinner. Everyone got a fortune cookie and a packet of curry powder in a little decorated box.

I felt bad that we couldn't go to the rest of the party, but we had to race out after 9 to head up to Toronto. I hope they had a good time that night and an even better ceremony in Las Vegas.
