fuzzygrufOn Saturday morning I got down to the Discovery Channel store about 9:45am. There was a line, as expected. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rootbeer1 was in line about a dozen people in front of me, so he motioned me to join him. We were in line over an hour, so it was great to be able to chat with him while we waited. Got weighed in and got a baggie of free stuff (hat, tape measure, other junk).
From there I headed to my office to get my gym stuff, then I went to the YMCA, where I actually used the treadmill. Afterwards I got some good steam, along with some other, um, friendly guys.
Steve left for the ECR dance around 5:15pm. I later headed out to the BearHug and got there a bit before 7pm. They did have all their 7-8pm volunteers, so I "had" to keep busy for an hour before my shift. Checked out downstairs, then just came up and sat out on the deck for awhile. The weather was nice, and with the heater outside, it was perfect for being naked. I got in a good soak in the hot tub, then went to work the front from 8-9pm. It was super busy the first half hour of my shift. Things calmed down some for the remaining half hour. Eric took over at 9pm, and I headed downstairs. I was immediately grabbed by some guy who I apparently had "encountered" at the September BearHug. Don't remember that. Passionately rolled around for a bit, then "took a break." I think that's the first 'Hug where I was completely sober. Not as fun. I sat and watched videos for a bit with Joe from the FCD, and complained of a headache. He said he had one as well. I thought maybe it was the smoke from outside or the thumping of the music. I left a bit before 10pm, running into David and Tom as I was leaving.
Got home, and went to bed. Steve got in around 2am. By then my nose was stuffed up. Grrrrrr.
