timelies!
Conference is going well but I wish I had more time to do everything I wanted while here! My cab driver today offered to give me a whole tour of Chattanooga and not charge me for it because I was "cute" and a "starving artist". I don't know if I should be flattered or creeped out. He even gave me his card if I needed help tomorrow. (that was a bit creepy). Spent time with my Grad school friend, good times, and got envited to go out with a really cute guy who is a professor at the school I got my Master's from.
I'm being good, though, and remembering I have to be out of the hotel and ready for an interview by 7am (ugh). 8am I meet with the scholarship committee, and I really hope they pick me! I'm also hoping they will overlook my friend not sending my letter of rec until last week
(sill mad about that). One of my students wrote me a letter of rec (she had heard me frantically trying to solve the situation last week.) She went home and, unsolicited, wrote the committee a letter and asked me to deliver it to them. She let me read it...it was absolutely the sweetest thing I have seen in a long time. Darn those kids!
Aw, I just got an e-mail from a college friend I haven't heard from in a year or so. She's going to be in town in a couple weeks and wants to get together. We weren't close personal friends, per se, so I find it really nice that she finds me someone worth keeping in touch with.
Yesterday we sat down to play and I had rolled up a dwarf ranger named Garrie. My friend brought an elf mage named Gyjax.
Dear god. A commercial on TV is telling me it's been ten years of Jared and the Subway commercials, and I'm flashing back to my high school reunion, and everyone heading up to his hotel room to drink his liquor...
I played D&D in like, 8th grade. Read some of the books. Mostly just liked reading about the various creatures and monsters and such, rather than actually doing any campaigns or anything. I played a kender...;)
I played a kender
Wow that race was completely unknown to me until just now. weird. Sounds like a blast to play
meara, alistair says hi!
HAH! Tell him hi back. My my my....old times...;)
I need to be up at 3 to catch a 6 am flight. Why am I not asleep?
Gronk. I barely woke up on time today, took an hour and a half nap in the math lab this afternoon, and just slept again from about 8 to 11. No clue why so tired.
Um. There was something I was going to answer. DC vegetarian-friendly restaurants? Any particular kind/price range?
For Ethiopian, in addition to all the U Street places, there's also Zed's in Georgetown, if you want someplace a bit fancier. (Or if "has photos on the wall of all the politicians who've eaten there" is one of your restaurant requirements.)
