A Visit to Technicon

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 22, 2010 by MikhailMarch 22, 2010

Technicon 27 started with our water heater cracking open. Okay, so the two weren’t causally linked. The situation remained damn frustrating, though: Starr had been scheduled to work her 7am-7pm shift, but we both really wanted her to come to the con, which meant we would probably get there around 2 or 3 Saturday morning. So be it: such is life. Then her work called in the wee hours of Friday to say she’d actually been scheduled 3am-3pm, which wouldn’t be any easier on her, but meant we’d show up in Blacksburg at a decent hour! Then we both came … Continue reading →

30 Con Questions

Unimatrix Two Posted on July 23, 2009 by MikhailJuly 23, 2009

Bob Snare put this test up on Facebook, and since it didn’t ask me for all my FB profile data first, I decided to go ahead and take the test: —– 1. Fan, fen, geek, gamer, otaku, or other (if “other,” what)? Gamer geek fan. 2. First con attended? RoVaCon 7 (1982), late Sunday only. Took a while for me to forgive my dad for that one. 3. At what age did you attend your first con? I’d have been in my late thirteens. 4. Suffer from “post-con depression?” Not so much. I’m often kinda relieved to turn life back … Continue reading →

How to Motivate Your Cleaning

Unimatrix Two Posted on December 8, 2008 by MikhailDecember 8, 2008

Now, it may seem like a bad idea to have a party only a week after getting the last boxes out of the apartment. As we continued to clean and stack and sort and discard it became clear that indeed, it really really was a bad idea. Our favorite lifestyle group decided not to hold a December party this year – a month off was the group’s gift to the folk who usually host it. Well, we jumped into the gap, and by Friday, we’d begun to wonder if we’d remembered to don parachutes first. Friends came over Friday evening … Continue reading →

Fools! I’ll Destroy You All!

Unimatrix Two Posted on October 23, 2008 by MikhailOctober 23, 2008

Mad Scientist University: Apples to Apples meets Mad Science. I think I need this game. Apples to Apples is a proven, repeated winner at any party I’ve seen it appear, and the additional mad science elements seal the deal. Games like these are absolutely perfect for most of the groups I’m in: minimal setup, simple rules, and more focus on playing the game entertainingly than actually winning. Won’t be buying it before Xmas, but I may put it on my Xmas list 🙂 … Continue reading →

130 Leagues Over the Asphalt

Unimatrix Two Posted on May 27, 2008 by MikhailMay 27, 2008

T – I – R – E – D. Went back to Roanoke on Saturday. My mom’s doing great: she can move both her leg and arm now, and on Sunday took a few steps (with a great deal of support). I’m told this is still Gold Medal performance, and my optimism was repeatedly fed this weekend. nanoreid was there for a bit, and I got to say hi to Ginny and Ian as well. Starr bought my mother a knitting loom which can be fastened to a solid surface, and now my mom can indulge her addiction one-handed for … Continue reading →

Another crushing Invid defeat

Unimatrix Two Posted on May 13, 2008 by MikhailMay 13, 2008

Last night I had my first taste of lobster in decades. I’d been putting a lot of energy into taking care of Starr lately, with her overwork issues and such; she decided it was my turn, and set up a lovely lobster and shrimp dinner for me. Those things are hard to stare down – I’ve always been a bit wary of food that’s looking back at me. Luckily, lobsters look evil enough that I can tell myself that it would gladly eat me if our roles were reversed, and start dismembering the thing. (Cows are the same way. Don’t … Continue reading →

We Still Choose To Go

Unimatrix Two Posted on April 11, 2008 by MikhailApril 11, 2008

Taking a short break from reporting on weather and virtual worlds: Tomorrow is Yuri’s Night, the anniversary of the first human spaceflight, and of the first space flight of the Shuttle. Forty-seven years ago, a Soviet cosmonaut took mankind’s first step toward the final frontier. Twenty-seven years ago, the American space program began our first experiment with reusable spacecraft. On April 12th we celebrate a milestone which will stand as long as we reach for the stars. There are Yuri’s Night parties in Richmond, DC, and the Raleigh area, and more all over the world – even in Second Life! … Continue reading →

The weekend officially begins

Unimatrix Two Posted on March 31, 2008 by MikhailMarch 31, 2008

I drove back to Blacksburg in a much happier car. On the way, jsciv called and set up a meet, wherein I found that for $10 more a night I could have had a suite twice the size (not that I would have used it for much). We hit Christiansburg’s new Panera with Lucy, and talked a lot of game industry shop. Joe seems to be doing quite well for himself these days, which is great; we made hyper-flimsy plans for a Disney run out there sometime in the hazy future. (Flying. Not driving.) Made it to the con, and … Continue reading →

Weekend on Mars

Unimatrix Two Posted on January 21, 2008 by MikhailJanuary 21, 2008

Started off the weekend with a fever on Friday, caused probably by having to run around in the cold cold rain on Thursday. But I medicated the heck out of myself, and was well enough to travel with Starr to Williamsburg on Friday for MarsCon. Most conventions are, for me, opportunities to socialize with friends I don’t often get to see. southernsinger, kittykatya, impink, geckoman, and stori_lundi were all there, as well as folks I get to see a little more often such as ptownhiker, fixitup, and torn757. Got to spend some quality time with Jesse and Dwight too! Convention … Continue reading →
