Wednesday. Brezsny.

This week, Rob tells the Gemini:

Ocean Dome is a huge indoor beach and water park on an island in Japan. Fabricated to create the ideal seaside conditions, it features artificial white sand and machine-generated waves that are high enough to surf. Air and water temperatures never waver from a comfortable range. There's an amusing irony about the place, though: Less than 1,000 feet away from its metal facade, there's an actual ocean and beach. Does this remind you of any situation in your own life, Gemini? It should. In my opinion, you'd get more enjoyment out of the real thing than the synthetic substitute.

Maybe this one's for some other Gemini. Or maybe he's being all metaphysical on me in a way that's more vague and/or abstract than usual. Either is certainly possible.

In my case, the actual ocean and beach are unreachable. So... yeah. *scritches head cluelessly*

Don't think I realized you were a Gemini. It fits, though.

Nope, don't think I know you, at least in the met-in-person sense. I'll meet you one of these days, I expect.

I forget, are you still anywhere near the South Bay for work stuff?

Yep. Somehow we've never been in the same place at the same time, but since I know what you look like I figured I'd return the favor. We'll get around to it someday.

I work in Sacramento, but get down to the Bay Area occasionally for social events. Next on the list is the next Gaskells and L&J's wedding.

Ah! I'm not likely to make it to Gaskell's, but I'm expecting to be at the wedding. So perhaps I'll get a chance to meet you then.

I assume the cowboy hat is unusual, and for the "wanted" motif?

Re: To put names and faces together.

[satyrlovesong.livejournal.com]

Indeed.

Shall I see you at the wedding then?

I need to make sure I'm correct about plans, but let's say it's 90% likely at this point (because I'm there as the girl's guest rather than on an invitation of my own, and I need to check).
