The China trip got postponed, at pretty much the last possible minute. Which is good – I don’t think I was mentally prepared for what looks like on paper to be 26+ hours in transit. Mental note to myself: find a doctor willing to dispense something that will knock me nearly comatose for the journey. The trip’s going to be in April.

Instead, I spent my Saturday evening dining with some old friends. Then I went to a party to welcome Balseraph back to town (him and I worked at Ninjaneering together) – he’s spent the last few months consulting with Saga of Ryzom. Also in attendance were J and Glyph from Twisted Matrix. You know your friends are geeks when the party has the girls of a local Burlesque group drinking it up, but you spend the night in the back arguing about quest design.
