Something I forgot to mention about this weekend is that at one point I had no fewer than six of my most favorite people all in front of me at once. I happen to have a lot of favorite people, but not all of them are local, so they don’t all usually come together like that. (Granted in this case most of them were locals, but it was still a good feeling.)

Also, the NGLTF dinner went amazingly well. At one point I asked fairerhiannon beforehand if she was nervous, because I was too, but I think we both did a great job. We’re pretty sure there were no deaf people in the audience, because the event wasn’t advertised as being interpreted, and it wasn’t filmed for posterity so we were just signing into the ether. I focused more on matching register than message, and I got really into it - then afterward, somebody came up and said I’d done a really good job, and wanted my business card! He turned out to be from the Washington Mystics, the local WNBA team…I’m not sure what he wanted me for but it will be interesting to see where that goes.
