At the Yom Kippur break-fast, [livejournal.com profile] ron_newman told us that there's an XKCD meetup tomorrow in North Cambridge. 2:38 PM, at a park in North Cambridge.

See, it's because of the xkcd comic here. It's possible that the correct time is 1438 UST instead of 1438 local time, but most people are going to try to be there at 2:38.

Lis and I are going to try to make it, but if 1300 people from all around t he world show up to squeeze into a tiny little neighborhood park, it's unlikely that we'll actually see anyone SPECIFIC we're looking for.

I'd assume it's at 1438 local time, because 1438 UTC is too early to be awake and out on a Sunday morning.

This reminds me of the Time Travelers Convention.

I use to like the comic a little. Then I got a chance to spend time with the creator. Now, I do not look at it. Ever.

He is a real self centered prick. He out and out disses any thing that is pre-internet. Like apas and letter hacks are nothing. I think we chatted about him at my birthday.

I shall pass. Especially if he is going to be there.

If you get a chance, the littlest patient is back to her silly trouble making self. She dive bombed Byron from the couch today. I swear he was to pleased to be mad. Even Fidget is putting up with her being a pest. (at least for now)

I'd love to, but I'm attending my mom's birthday.

[livejournal.com profile] deyo was planning to fly out, honestly, but with the big job change that just flew by, compounded with the budget effects . . . it just wasn't practical.

My friend lives across the street from that park. She was confused at first, but wandered over and everything was explained.
