So...tonight has been interesting so far, to say the least.'

As I type this, I'm sitting in the Valley Forge office, awaiting 7 pm, so I can start my interview with Ken Lobb. If you don't know, Ken Lobb is in the gaming industry. He worked at Nintendo for a long time and was part of the teams that were responsible for classics like Goldeneye, Killer Instinct, and Fable. And he's from Rockford, IL. So...

Anyway, the guy is in England right now, so I can't interview him until 7.

So...right now, I'm pretty much by myself up here. Gareth stopped in to make sure I had everything I needed, but other than that, I'm alone.

And I think I'm going to get sick. See, I've been out in the snow for the past twenty minutes.

I don't have a key to the office. When I have to get in, I go around the back of the building, where the nurse's office is. That's how I get in if there's nobody else up here. That's how I got up here today.

At around...oh, I don't know, 5:30, I decided I would go get some food because I was going to be up here for a while. So I left the way I came in - through the nurse's office.

Except when I left, I had a inkling, and turned around and tugged on the door.

Locked. Both doors.

So I trekked in the snow to the Student Center, because I figured the information desk might be of some help.

Information desk = closed.

As a last ditch effort, I got in my car and drove over to the Public Safety Building, to see if I could get a police officer to help me out.

Nothin'.

Then - a stroke of luck. As I was about to give up, a man comes out of one of the rooms, apparently leaving for the night. He helped me out, got me into the building, and here I am.

Wet.

Bleh.

I'm gonna need to ask Gareth for a key.

It wasn't bad. Some of the questions didn't actually fly because I had a different idea of what he does at Microsoft than what he actually DOES do...but it didn't hinder me too much.
