Our rooms are on the third floor on the east side, facing the atrium and separated by one room. While the room is not close to the elevators, it is near the stairs and seems like a good place. Unfortunately, some trees obstruct the view into the atrium and some of the light light in the early part of the day.

The Con has not started yet; however, yesterday afternoon, there was a one day convention for PriceWaterHouseCooper. Or as Rude put it, aren't those the guys that hand out the big checks for some sweepstakes bullshit. Brilliant. Appearently they are giving away $1 million dollars that may only be redeemed at the cafe on the attrium level and only when one uses those huge sized checks as for remmitance.

We managed to pick up a shit load of beer, wine and booze for the event, although, we only have one bottle of tonic, so those wishing for Gin and Tonic may want to pick up some more. We do have Jack and Gin and apparently DaveDefeat has a rather large bottle of Brandy he picked up for $9.99. Yum Yum... Gotta love poor student alcohol.

Our Refrigerator is marginal at best. We have not checked out the other room, but at least for drinking sake, there is an ice machine right down the hall. We managed to make a makeshift drink cooler in the sink and drink quite a bit of beer last night.

On the gaming front, jr0n, Rude and I played a basic level game of Pandemic. We managed to win without too much difficulty. Rude seemed to like the game and expressed interest in playing again. The three of us also played a Rio Grande card game whose name escapes me. The game was fun and jr0n handily lost as he flouted his rules mastery over our heads. As is typically with the group, Rude started with militia offensive and forced the game down the Militia path. Violence wins again. Myke Hunt was not able to participate in our gaming adventures due to an evening graduation honor function.

Food land yes! We hit up In N' Out. Yes! We also made a trip to El Torito. Yeah, it worked out fine. Typical El Torito fare. We had to roll ourselves out the door we were so stuffed. That place is a total glutton's paradise.

We also spend a good deal of time watching, commenting on, reading out loud and even influencing on Myke's grading of his archaeology class final exams. There were some quite atrocious answers that were worth a chortle or two. The best part of course was not the grading so much as Rude, jr0n and me grading, but the renaming of one of Myke's students to Cunt Lips or Georgia O'c-lips. Time's up play last year lives on in memory. We should definately play again this year.

Also, DaveDefeat and Ian arrived at 4:30am but are so fueled up on Caffeine, they have still not slept yet. This sounds like a train wreck of sleeping waiting to happen.

I had to get up at 5:30am this morning to make it back to work today. Boo... I am at work until hopefully about 3pm. Should be back at Boobla Khan around 4-4:30pm is my guess.

D>M>, signing out for now.
