California Dreaming

[rowyn]

Ran two separate sessions of "A Game of October" this weekend, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. My brain is thinking of the Saturday game as "normal" and the Sunday game as "short", even though both sessions went on for three or three and a half hours. My mind is funny that way.

I have another session scheduled for tonight (this one is also supposed to be "short", and since at least one participant has to leave early, it should be.) Then one on Wednesday. That leaves Tuesday and Thursday to get ready for the trip I'm taking on Friday.

I'm not sure if I've covered my vacation plans in here yet. For anyone who doesn't know:

ltwarhound and I are flying from Emerald City to Las Vegas on Friday night, where we're meeting up with lady_anne, level_head, makovette and openheartsoftly (if we don't scare her off before arrival). And possibly another LJer, though that individual is uncomfirmed the last time I checked.

On Monday night, Lut is flying back to Emerald City, while I go on to the dragon's lair with Level Head and his Lady. Then on Wednesday, oceansedge is flying in with her two children. Very early Saturday morning, I'm flying back to Emerald City. Somewhere in there, I hope to squeeze in a visit with octantis, who lives somewhere in the general vicinity of the Lair. Well, as long as you define "general vicinity" as "within a hundred miles or so". It's still a lot closer than Emerald City is. I mean, I don't even need a tornado to carry me between the two places, though a car would still be required.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing all the folks I've already met again, and to meeting all the new ones. Whee! Four more days. Give or take. :)

Goodness gracious, that's a lot of Octobering! Hope you're having fun.

Sounds like it'll be a fun road trip!

I thought of the Sunday session as "short", too - not in terms of time spent, but in terms of things that happened. Possibly not a FAIR comparison, but that's just how I registered it mentally.

So, you're not alone. =)

Can you email/call me when I'm playing? I've totally lost track again. I've kept tonight and Wednesday free, if that's when I was scheduled.

Weeee.... I just got home from Toronto, and all I can think about is leaving for Los Angeles ...I know exactly what you mean about "in the vicinity', I gotta call the zenman back tonight (he left a message on my machine) about maybe doing lunch; he's only 2 hours away in Oceanside hahahah... but that's a lot closer than 3000 miles :)

Practically next door!

Los Angeles, being a hub, is surprisingly convenient for me to get to -- not only quick, but cheap. The dragon's lair is probably the easiest of my out-of-town friends to visit. Ah, the peculiarities of modern living!

Especially for me... travelling only on Air Canada passes kinda makes things a bit tricky in terms of routings and just where I can fly to. For instance in order to get to Madison WI I had to fly to Chicago by way of Montreal, and take a 3 hour bus from there. Fortunately the bus terminal is right at O'Hare. But it was annoying when one considers that there used to be a direct RJ service from Winnipeg to Chicago, which meant I could fly Thompson, Winnipeg, Chicago in just slightly over 3 hours flying time. They still have Winnipeg Chicago direct RJ service, but Air Canada agreed to give it over to United Express.
