for those not in the know: i spent the last week in pennsylvania with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
glaucon. i can't give much detail right at this moment--because it's late! and i'm tired!--but it involved meeting many of glaucon's east coast friends (some of whom i already knew virtually through LJ), attending the PAPA world pinball tournament in pittsburgh, and meeting many of glaucon's family members in chambersburg and williamsport. the short summary: thoroughly enjoyed myself, loved meeting everyone, loved spending so much time with glaucon, and...well, i'm still falling with no end in sight, and i don't think i can say much more than that without producing a sticky sweet syrupy clog in the internets.
today involved much flying. then it involved excessive waiting for our luggage because the Delta people were apparently overwhelmed by all of the checked baggage. seriously, an hour after our plane landed, we were still waiting. then they bounced us to 3 different baggage claim carousels before delivering any luggage.
now it's 2am and i'm tired but wired. exhausted, wide awake, can't sleep.
maybe my book will help.
i'll post more about the trip soon...

Date: 2006-08-24 09:50 pm (UTC)we probably walked past each other on Main Street a hundred times. (I lived there '87 to '94 and used to come down to hang out a lot for another couple years after that.)
I used to divide Newark freaks into "A list" and "B list". the A list were the Newark freaks whom everybody knew or knew of. the B list were the freaks behind-the-scenes: the people who were easily overlooked by most people, but were friends with a lot of the A listers and were probably even weirder, but less famously so. I was mostly a B lister.
let's see...Newark weirdos we might both know: Doug Keener (he lives here now), Erin Sharwell (she does too...and she's married to Doug!), Matt Tuzzo, Mike Baker, Heather McCabe, any of the Nagoski family, Joel Rudnick, Jay Joslin, Chad who died in the barn fire and his weird friend Carla, Jen Cramer, Gary Geise, Tom Uffner, the gang who put on the Hut parties, Chris Gears, Steve Gwost, Bill Jaeger, the Staboszes (Dave and Reenie), that Gibby chyck, Lisa and Dave Toccafandi...
I've only met one DE person in Seattle - and I only found out he was when he wore a Deer Park Tavern tshirt to the Merc. *g*
crazy! who was it?
I finally wore too many holes in mine and can't wear it anymore. I still wear my UD dining services shirt sometimes though. and have an WXDR bumper sticker on my car. fuck VUD.
I looked at your userinfo and it looks like we have more weird interconnections than just sharon and newark: my best friend here in seattle works at house of gord with someone from your 2BM site and you seem to have my old drinking buddy corprew on your friendslist.
small town, huh?
