I’m back from Portland. It’s 1 am and I’m ready for sleep. But before that, some Thank Yous are in order.
I’m happy to say that I have a lot of new friends, friends that were once ‘virtual’ but are now very real. Thank you Semaphoria, Ivar, Nerdygirl, and Cherz for a kick-ass weekend. It was great to finally meet you and hang out. If you’re ever in Texas, you know who to call.
Thanks also to Skorloff, Ashley, and Julee for inviting me (and convincing me to actually go). I’ll have to spend a little more time summarizing the trip’s activities, but for now, I think Nerdygirl put it well with:
They blazed through Portland in a bright orange Mustang, leaving a trail of empty beer glasses and the faint echo of the word "y'all" in their wake.
One small correction: it was a convertible Mustang. Aw yeah.

uh, i had nothing to do with it. i was merely a bystander. i played outfield, batted a few times, ran around a couple bases, and almost started a fight because of a questionable base hit. PBR was in short supply and some guy was complaining of a buzz he was losing. meanwhile, i needed a buzz, bad.
