Geek nights

Last night, I saw the two towers at midnight, vaguely guilty feeling about not plugging away with Ro at the code for work for his presentation foo. But oh well, I so would not have motivated myself to do work.

Dinner was cool, the movie was good, though not nearly so good as fellowship, imho. I genuinely liked the editing they did for the first one. This one amended many important bits and pieces that made me cranky. No spoilers. But bleh.

Tonight, wc3 with where I beat him in what ended up being a fairly close contest, then we both got spanked by the computer. (me make bad orc). I went to the gaming thing in lake merrit (or where ever it is) again. I enjoyed myself, and met this cool couple, who drove me home. Played the transportation network with the lady last week. And flirted with the gentleman somewhat subtly (I hope) before I noticed the wedding ring. =) In discussing ex-roommates whilst they drove me home, he suggested that a particular situation with my first actor roommate (first roomie in chicago) was about worrying about people thinking we were a gay couple. That gave me momentary pause, then I said that since it was in boystown, that probably wasn’t an issue, and while we were both gay, so, so not together [hey, , do you remember Jeremy?]. Didn’t seem to prompt so much as a blink, though they might have thereafter shown an increased interest in conversation.

Also thinking of chicago reminds me of Nicholas Alan Dickey. I wish I still had pictures of him. He was pretty. And we had a really cool dynamic, when it got going. Ah well, some things not meant to be.

Much interesting conversation. Home and long chat w/ , need sleep soon.
