I remember meeting GiveBlood, Chason, SignalDistress, Chewy Almighty... I think Mackenzie too?

But who else did I speak with?
It was a pleasure speaking with you all.

I saw someone who I'm pretty sure was you a few times. I also saw a bunch more people I recognized from here, but again didn't feel like stopping.

This year I was within arm's reach of Jana looking directly at her for a second during registration while she spoke to a friend of hers and she STILL didn't see me, which amused me.

I saw Skatepunk at least 7 times in various places.

I saw GiveBlood a few times and probably touched him at one point while I tried to give the bassist of Red City Radio the space he asked for at the house show.

That's all I remember right now. I feel like a ninja for being able to see people without being noticed. Next year I'm going to put stickers on you all or something.

You should have said Hello!
SignalDistress said, "Hey Are you from NY?" In order to insure that It was me haha.

I thought that was pretty smooth.

That is the absolute worst time to expect me to see you. I'm like a deer in headlights. You have to remember that I came from living in the woods not seeing another person for days at a time to suddenly being surrounded by 5000 plus people. I'm kind of overwhelmed. The people I did meet this year came up to me in most cases. Sorry. I walked by people I've known for 10-15+yrs all weekend.

Hehe. It all makes more sense now. You were giving the person you were talking to 100% of your attention anyway. I didn't want to interrupt that without having anything to really say. And I really take no offense to not being recognized, don't worry about it.

Skatepunk36 and K80: I also had nothing intelligent/interesting/important to say, so I just let you all go about your ways.

I didn't really "meet" anyone, but do believe I saw Skatepunk at one point, Robert, and another dude whose username I don't know

I met so many fellow delivery drivers, it was pretty great. I believe I may have talked to you about that at one point Chewy, at transitions, but I can't be sure.

I believe I saw SkatePunk a bunch of times.

When I'm sober, I'm shy haha. But when I have been hanging out with Jack and Ginger, I won't stop talking.

I dunno if I saw Blatant.

I'm trying to think of anyone else.
But at Market Street...
The Golden Girl was a nice lady and I liked the dinosaur couple!

Someone approached me who had sent me a PM on the board a while ago too, but I think that was it. Everyone else from the board I saw, I had met last year or knew previously/prior to the board (i.e. Chason and K80).
