back from intercon - no mojo!
Mar. 10th, 2002 09:38 pmintercon was great. I met a lot of new people/recognized some from last year... I even ran into people there who I did not expect to see but knew!
My games were all very cool and I think everyone except poor laura47 had fun.
I seem to have caught what she was sick with, which I believe is what rigel was sick with recently. I'm feeling like I'm totally out of it, like I'm 'on something', so I am vaguely hoping I've skipped the 'sick as a dog' part. Of course, this "I'm on drugs" part is tough too what with schoolwork to do. Bleah.
There were these two cute and neat boys I was talking to at the con. I don't think either of them were interested though. I don't know how rigel and zebediah do it... they manage to pick people up so easily! Maybe I'm just not as cool and interesting as they are. ;-)
Anyway, intercon rocks and more people should go next year. Yay intercon!
p.s. In retrospect, this makes it sound like I'm all about picking up those cute people I met. But it isn't like that. They were cute, sure, and I was crushing on one and attracted to the other. But they also seemed like very neat fun people. Rigel managed to get an agreement to email from one of the guys she'd been hanging around with/cast with in one game. Neither of these guys alas expressed any interest in further contact, which disappointed me because they seemed like neat people. Just like the guy I met at Arisia, we haven't had anything romantic going on, but I really enjoy being friends with him.
This all had the effect of making me feel like something was wrong with me. Maybe I wasn't friendly enough, or something... but rigel and zebediah seemed to do this contact thing effortlessly, and it makes me wonder what's wrong with me that I can't. Am I not as cool as them? Was I just not as 'on' this weekend? Was I too busy with games and dancing to actually socialize and get to know people?
Of course, this is a silly train of thought to a great extent---concluding that rigel and zebediah must be cooler than me to others because they picked people up and I didn't. Maybe one of those guys was very interested in me and I just didn't notice!
Anyway, it probably sounds like I'm angsting about this a lot. I'm not, I'm just really out of it and listening to the audio files for the assignment I have due tomorrow. So I typed this in while I listened.
