A scene from the slobmeet. That’s me in the back with the eyepatch.

Well, friends, what can I say? Prizes and applause and cheers were doled out at the 4th annual slobmeet; I received absolutely nothing. Not since Citizen Kane was snubbed at the 1941 academy awards has there been such a gross miscarriage of justice. Quite frankly, I’d punch David Vidmar in his sexy face if he weren’t so goddamn sexy. (Even though I’m not gay, I like to keep my options open.)

There were some disappointing no-shows, like Sgazetti and Marjorie and Mojca and plenty of other people I was hoping might come but who insisted they had to “stay home and wash their hair.” I also would have loved to finally meet people like the Crninator and post-op La Poulette. But that will have to wait for another time.

That said, I did finally meet quite a few people in-the-flesh whose blogs I know on-the-line, like Bojana, Borut, Baya, and Brian. I was also going to say hello to Ula, but her name doesn’t start with a “B” and that would’ve fucked up my whole evening.

Also: I can confirm Darko’s postulate that Slovenes are the best-looking people on earth. The proof? In any other country, a meeting of bloggers would look like something out of Barnum & Bailey’s. Only here does it not. (Present company excluded)
