So I went to the Atari thingy in LA. It actually went far better than I expected. I went by myself to a party where I didn't know anyone, which I'm pretty sure is a first for me, and I actually had a pretty decent time. I missed the high score on Mrs. Pacman by 4 freekin points (shakes fist at whoever it was who nudged me out). I even had some decent conversation with a few people, which is pretty good for me because I usually wallflower at parties. I have definite avoidant tendencies, so this was actually hugely successful.

On the other hand I have purchased exactly 0 new Atari games. Boo hiss. And I'm still unable to write anything that I can stand to read. I feel like I've lost a part of myself that I can't get back. I miss writing, the joy of words, the shaping of ideas, the feel of pen sliding swiftly over paper. School does end in four weeks, though, so hopefully it will come back then.
