Liralen's Adventures Through Life

I slept in until 9 and just skipped breakfast in order to talk with Kelly for a while. I had no desire to pay for breakfast either. A cup of bad coffee and a cup of really excellent tea (Carl lent me his tea kettle, and I had my gaiwan and Flit's tea from Thursday. The Phoenix oolong proved to be astonishingly good) was plenty to get me into my really excellent Atomic Robo game with Morgan Ellis. Carl had recommended that particular game to me, and I was really really happy that I was able to get into it!

There was one small side trip we had to do on the way to Big Bad Con , although it was really way out of our way, because the convention was by the Oakland airport and Chez Panisse exists in Berkeley. I made the reservations for the café upstairs exactly one month before. They don't open up reservations until then, and last year we were unable to get reservations because we started too late. I made sure that this year. I also got an interesting surprise on the way there. If you want to just read about the con, click here.
