More WisCON and Life
May. 23rd, 2020 10:12 amYesterday evening, we decided to order pick-up from Taste of India (one of our favorites) and play board games. My family adores Trivial Pursuit because it always ends up making us laugh hysterically over dumb things.
Willow, it turns out, just likes the box.

It was otherwise a fairly social day for me. On Friday, I have a regular Zoom with my friends who are a group of writers that I used to meet with at a coffee shop. In the middle of that, I ended up texting back and forth with![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
jiawen about WisCON and so we hopped on to jitsi to catch up on stuff and we ended up watching the Opening Ceremonies together. That was pretty fun and not unlike going to the opening ceremonies with someone in Real Life (tm). Hopefully, if things work out, I'm going to have a lunch with her and some other regular WisCON folks today in an attempt to recreate the experience of wandering down State Street with a bunch of folks you met at the hotel lobby. (Though, ideally, to recreate that, we should probably end up with too many people to reasonably get seated together and then dither for several minutes about what kind of food people want.)
Other than watching the Opening Ceremonies, I didn't do much with WisCON yesterday. Hopefully, today I can try a few more things.
