SPONGEBOB!!!!

Just got home from The Third Annual Elans for Canadian Video Games and Animation. I'll write the big write-up tomorrow.

Also, I'm tired, so screw captions. Also tomorrow.

I will mention these bits for now, though:

  • It honestly felt like we barely got in, like our names weren't quite on the list. But we got in.
  • We were seated at table 24, with a Brian, David, Kai, and . . . a woman who left soon after.
  • It turned out those first two people were Brian Dobson and David Nykl
  • Left 4 Dead freakin' cleaned house.
  • Tom Kenny taught us how to do the Spongebob Squarepants laugh.
  • Tom Kenny is a freakin' funny guy even when he's not Spongebob.
  • This award show was the first time Tom Kenny had ever won an award for doing Spongebob.
  • Hayao Miyazaki won a lifetime achievement award tonight.
  • Talked with a South African guy at our table a lot. He wants to move to Vancouver. Such is our city...
  • Kicking myself for not bringing my camera.

I can't wait 'til next year. Hopefully we can go again, though Adam's contact (the organizer of the event) might not be there next year. Oh, also spoke to her a bit near the end - she's wonderful.

Thanks again for the hook-up, Adam.
