This weekend started early after Bazaarvoice’s traditional All-Hands at the Alamo Drafthouse (we’re currently at the South Lamar location because I think that’s the only one that will fit us at this point). Some of the crew headed over to Matt and Tara’s to chill by/in the pool, then we headed to Trudy’s so Heather could get her complimentary birthday martini.
Speaking of the All-Hands, it was kicked off this quarter by an air band competition:
After that, a few peeps came to chill at my place including Ochs and Weishan, which meant that Sam came along too since he apparently has a thing for Weishan and her “innocent friends.” I don’t know, that’s what I heard, just saying.
On Saturday, I headed to Hula-Hut to chill with some BV folk including Lisias who visits us for the first time from the UK. I got some shrimp tacos which I thought were adequately tasty. =) On the way home, Ryan tried to persuade me to play some Zelda games, but was not successful. =p
The night ended with some WoW and DotA, where Viraj decided to not plug in and use his known flakey wireless network resulting in two incomplete games. At least I got to kill and laugh at him a lot in the last game. Some notable moments in the last game included:
- Getting Viraj’s health down to red to see him run away. I figured he went back to his base to heal, only to see the announcement that he died to neutral creeps moments later. He claims it was faster.
- Accidentally killing Viraj in the collateral damage of killing Mark as Zeus.
- Viraj dying to cleave attacks by Justin while invisible. Justin: “I didn’t even know Viraj was there.”
- Mark (who was on the same team as Viraj) having a near 4-5x higher creep kill count than VIraj
On Sunday, I woke up way later than intended and just bummed around for a while. Started going through the Django tutorial again, then chilled with some of the gang and watched The Fly. Thaaaaat’s all folks.
