vividcon- the hangover
Home from vacation and Vividcon, which was, to understate the case, amazing. Met some incredible people, broke a shoelace on my boot (before I got to wear them!), watched incredible vids, bonded with several types of alcohol, and became a twitter addict.
I'm going to say, twitter becomes much more understandable as a concept when you are a.) drunk b.) bored or c.) spending a lot of time with![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
jarlsberg71.
Actually, this year was shockingly better for being actually, you know, social and stuff, partially because it is kind of difficult to get freaked out about whether someone likes you or not when you spent Club Vivid and most of the night drinking with them and they don't kill you when they had the chance (or push you down the stairs at the first opportunity; there were many, many opportunities). Even I have to take that as a positive sign.
More later, though how much later depends on how much work hates me. I'm still in con hangover, shocky and excited and utterly wiped out on sheer fannishness with more vids to watch, rewatch, and drool over happily. It was, in a word, amazing.

From:I've decided that the reason you never recognize me is that you just really enjoy meeting me all over again each time.

From:I have a dream that one day we'll be at the con suite or a room party at the same time for a period of time and actually talk. *g*

From:Twitter makes a lot more sense once you've got A) a decent Twitter app on your phone, B) a critical mass of people you're reading and/or being followed by, and C) find yourself bored and computerless at frequent intervals. Then it comes into its own as a stripped-down mobile social network.
Oh, shoot, and all the VVC vids are going to be uploaded soonish, aren't they? And I already had an uncleared backlog of vids on my thumb drive that I need to watch and transfer to my desktop...

From:Who could possibly not like you? This concept confuses me. :)
It was so so so awesome seeing you again, sweetheart.
