giza | Last weekend was fun! (Reply)

I haven't gotten a chance to write about last weekend yet, so I figured now would be a good time. Early on Saturday morning,

unclekage and I headed out to Anthrocon's storage locker in Pittsburgh to do inventory on some supplies. On the way out, we stopped at Hoss's for lunch. The rest of the 5 hour drive to Pittsburgh went pretty quickly, as I slept for a good chunk of the drive. :-)

Upon arriving in Pittsburgh we want to the storage locker and began the process of emptying storage containers to see what was in them. We had originally planned for this to take several hours, but because our staff and volunteers did such an awesome job of packing things up at the end of Anthrocon 2006, it took more like 1 hour.

We headed over to the OMNI and grabbed a room (yay for room night credits!) and decided what to do with the rest of the evening. Since the Dorsai Irregulars were in town for Confluence 2006, we decided to pay them a visit. When we arrived at the hotel, they had not yet spotted us so we snuck into the bar and asked an employee call the DI in to deal with "two guys who were drunk and disorderly". Hilarity ensued.

We then spent a few hours hanging out at the con, stopping by both the Con Suite and the Dorsai's room party before returning to the OMNI around midnight.

After dropping by the Westin for breakfast on Sunday morning, we stopped by the Westing Pennsylvania National Wild Animal Orphanage and I proceeded to take many pictures of the cats there.
