Two housewarmings in one evening. Started off at ‘s place in oakland. Food, and stuff. Chatting with people. Went with Simon and Ro, had a pretty good time. <\/p>\n

Ro drove me to the MacArthur bart station, before heading off in search of SIGBEER west (think SIGGRAPH, if you don’t get it, don’t worry, it’s a geek thing). Bandit told them about it from ABQ. I heard later that they found no evidence of it. Anyway, I hopped on the train to the city, happening to run into Joe Brooks, co-officer of ALLIES from my days at cmu. We chatted (so much for me reading more on zoning economics), but got along fairly well. Then I got off at civic center, walked to ‘s early so I could help setup and stuff. I also got some quality time with Emery’s lesbian mom. <\/p>\n

I had a great time at Temery’s place. Lots of friendly happy gay couples, straight neighbors, etc. I turned on my little extrovert in the middle of the evening. It petered out at some point, and I just sat in an out of the way corner for a bit to recoup. I was kinda wondering whether Josh would show, and he did, along with Anthony, and Cornell-Mike. I managed to go through the evening without spilling a drink on anyone, so that’s a plus. Though I did have a brief cessation of consciousness. <\/p>\n

Grabbed bart back, and there was this 40’s-50’s gay male couple that just settled into the seat across from me one half laying down on the chest of the other. They started off in an argument about whether the place they’d crossed really was a crosswalk, and then got onto quieter topics, but there was just this casual, un-self-conscious, comfortable vibe they had to them.<\/p>\n

I kinda wish Ro could have come. It would have been good for him. He’s starting to think the sorts of relationships that I saw so many of last night simply aren’t possible. He’s starting to think about getting back together with his long-term female ex, and moving to los alamos (where many of his friends are). Ah well, his life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
