Today had a much better start. Aside from waking up sick from having eaten WAY too much the night before, the entire day seemed to just fly on by.

I introduced a bunch of people to the site, and demoed dA muro for a few visitors... one of whom works for Martha Stewart Living. That totally threw me off because, if you know anything about deviantART, it's not exactly the kind of thing that someone from Martha Stewart Living would consciously want to spend 40 minutes of their day talking about, but I'm happy she came by, and maybe we'll get a mention somewhere (which would be pretty surreal, but awesome nonetheless).

In other, perhaps more stalkery news, I'd been aware that Philip DeFranco was in town, and after seeing him in line at the Apple Store yesterday, ran into him again after (of all things) randomly returning some tape to another booth. I let him know the location of our room and sure enough, he came by and drew some things. It was pretty neat to have him stop by. He and Lindsey (probably misspelled that, but whatevez =p) are really nice people. Definitely hope to run into them again.

Additionally, I heard that our live chat with Felicia Day went well, so that's awesome. I didn't get to talk to her, or really see her all that much because for much of the day, I was sitting out front directing people into the room, but it was cool that she came by for the chat! She was super busy, so it was pretty cool that she made time for the chat.

... and I'm falling asleep again while writing this, so that'll be all for tonight!
