I'm not dead

Last night I came home and went to sleep at 8pm then woke up at 1am then went to sleep at 5am then got up at 10am then went to Microsoft Puzzle Hunt.

I realize that perhaps there were other people who wanted to see me this weekend, like I know Andrew's in town, and Fuj, and Nyk was having games, but OMG PUZZLE HUNT SO FUN. If not for the fact that my brain was utterly shutting down and I was already falling asleep on the floor I wouldn't have bothered coming home... but I figured it was a good move to get 4-5 REAL hours of sleep and then go back to microsoft in the morning to finish up more puzzles :) Seriously. This has been a pretty awesome experience and I just wish the timing had been better to see others. I'll be done around 6-7pm, at any rate. Arr. Goodnight!

PS - It takes me 18 mins to drive from Microsoft campus to my apartment with absolutely no traffic. Neat.

Hooray! I look forward to reading more about it once you've finished.

I know one guy who works for MS (actually, he [co-?]organised their last hunt, I think) who mentioned reading Alice in Wonderland for an upcoming puzzle hunt on his blog and ended up rather slagging it off, but doing so most charmingly. Presumably the same one.

I amused to note that I am the ninth Google result for microsoft "puzzle hunt".

I've heard about the Microsoft Puzzle Hunt before. There are plenty of samples of the puzzles online from previous years, and they look very hard. But I'd still love to participate in something similar to that. However, I don't know of anything similar in the Seattle area, and I don't think any of the people I regularly hang out with are Microsoft employees who care about Puzzle Hunt.

hi dee!

I'll be back in seattle, soon enough :)

We were really busy there, so we had plenty of fun.

Eric Albert flew up for the Puzzle Hunt as well. Odd. I guess you wouldn't recognize him.

Anyway, now i am in oklahoma city. Yay, travelling to random places!
