House Party!
Jul. 4th, 2008 08:01 pmSo I'm in College Park for the HRSFA House Party right now, staying at MT's, since he's within walking distance of the HRSFA house. This way there's more space, I get kosher food, and Shabbat isn't an issue.
I went over at around 2ish today, and played a game of Basari1, which I actually won. I also made some paper cranes, since people are trying to make 1000 for a wedding in September.
We then went into DC for the photo scavenger hunt. I think this should be renamed "HRSFA Terrorizes DC." I don't think my team (which included
dr_whom and
midnight_sidhe) won. But we did get all the big point-scoring essentials, which included getting random people to spell out "HRSFA" with their bodies, which we did by having them do it in sign language.
People in DC are surprisingly nice and outgoing, and didn't act too weirded out by our scavenger hunt. Though I always feel self conscious in these sorts of situations, even when I'm not the one doing the talking...
So now everyone is out having Chinese food and watching the fireworks. Weather permitting, MT and I will head over tonight around 11ish (when they should return) for gamingness. Otherwise I'll go over tomorrow morning.
I'm very happy HRSFen are around. :) I've missed you guys!
