Gotta Love Seattle

akirluIt's a lot like never leaving the convention, really. I'm just back from a boffo pub outing to the dear old Elysian with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
libertango, jerrykaufman, Randy Byers, Suzle, and John D. Berry, as well as the lovely and talented flyingsauce (HeLLOOOOO, Pete!) in honor of whose layover in Seattle the outing was organized in the first place. The fanzines and gossip flowed like beer; thankfully, so did the beer. Efforts to get Pete to stand for TAFF were somewhat abortive, but I think I may have convinced John to finish a TAFF report. Yes, he in fact won Some Other fan fund, but Randy and I formed a united front in asserting that TAFF needs the money more.
I can't remember what all else, other than John very kindly confirmed that I'm cuter than various rather unattractive and ill-tempered animals. There is a world of pain in that man's future. You can't pay to have this much fun.
Update:
Have decided upon achieving sobriety again thatflyingsauce is engaged in an elaborate masquerade: he can't possibly be English. A few years back I conducted a survey with a goodish sample size, whose net result was the discovery that Englishmen shake hands as if they're handing you a dead fish, and hug as if they're made of wood, and flyingsauce has mastered neither of these telltale skills. Clearly, he is a deeply closeted Welshman.
