today wins!
Feb. 23rd, 2008 10:28 pmI flew into Pittsburgh late last night. Had a very enjoyable conversation on the bus into town, with a MechE doctoral student who asked the best questions about what Qatar is like that I've ever gotten. I'm always envious about people who are good at asking interesting questions to get conversations started. It's something I wish I were better at.
Today's theme was running around seeing friends who've returned to Pittsburgh: I stayed up till 4:30 talking with Dave before crashing in his spare room, breakfasted at Quiet Storm (yay hippie coffee shops), watched Superbad with Andrew and Ryan, and then met Paul at the SCS Day talent show. The talent show was fun; the best part was![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
chrisamaphone and jcreed and wjl singing "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea", which I love, and the "Still Alive" song from the end of Portal, w00t. Also, this is dorky, but it was kinda awesome that people I've met on previous trips to Pittsburgh knew who I was and some seemed kinda happy to see me. I always assume that people I don't know very well will forget who I am, so it's always a pleasant surprise when that doesn't happen. Yay validation! Boo social anxiety!
Now I am collapsing in bed, jetlagged and somewhat ill, but happy (albeit somewhat guilty I'm collapsing in bed instead of meeting Justin at the airport).
