I love New York in the springtime

NYC Meetup, Friday, April 10th, 8:00, Sixth Ward. Everyone had their birthday parties already and BSG is over so I don't want to hear any excuses.

The Sixth Ward, at 191 Orchard St., Lower East Side. 8:00. We'll see you there! This is really Optimus Chyme's dealie, but he got busy with his shoutout to Greg Nog and EmpressCallipygos on their baconing and used up his weekly MeTa stipend.

I infiltrate your thread and say that I am playing at Arlene's Grocery in the LES this Sunday at 8.

Suckas!

....You forgot about Good Friday.

Okay, it's my niece's first Easter, and she's only six months old and she may wear the thing that her auntie Kim made for her with her own two hands and she may be doing the whole Easter basket thing for the first time and that's going to be adorable because she's just a baby and so I'm going to be heading up to Massachusetts for that and I know this is an excuse but DAMMIT, that is JUST TOO BAD....

Six months is more or less the peak of a human being's cuteness, so EC is excused. Ludwig, I really liked that song you sent me, so I might drop by Arlene's the next day. Does that mean you'll be in town on Saturday? Also, why are you people up this late?

I'm up driving my cat mad with some mp3 files.

...I may be able to make it after all; will play it by ear.

I'm turning into one of those people who says "I'm there!" and then doesn't end up bothering, so let's just say "we'll see."

If I'm not impounded in the theater getting ready for my show (to which you all should come), I'll be there.

That's my boyfriend's birthday.

So let's see, the last few meetups have been:

-day had a bridal shower to attend/oscar night
- Watchmen opening
- a wedding
- boyfriend's birthday

I am going to just schedule one myself next time, I think.

Of course it's Good Friday; MeFi meetups make the Best Fridays.

Ah, right, that kind of Good Friday. Well, it'll be a shame to miss you guys, TPS. Next time for sure.

zoomorphic, I'm at Arlene's this Sunday the 5th. I'll be driving up from Philly just for the show, but I'll probably hang out for awhile afterwards.

If I'm able to make it to a meetup that weekend, I'll be at the one with beer and sausages, natch.

By: zoomorphic

zoomorphic — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 08:34:26 -0800

Also, I just realized the meetup is on a Friday, not a Saturday, so my comment is already null. This is why I shouldn't be allowed to organize anything, ever.

Well, on Good Friday evening, at least Christ won't be around to make anyone feel self-conscious with His holier-than-thou shtick, until He shows up again on Sunday.

So, I'm thinking I might actually go. How do I recognize everyone? It's going to be really crowded in a LES bar on a Friday night where most people had at least 1/2 the day off.

Gah, forgot the sign. I'm the bearded guy in the blue jacket and Z is in a dress with a big white bow, table on the right side.

Fun times as always. One thing I like about NYC meetups is that I never end up drinking too much.

By: ocherdraco

ocherdraco — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 07:55:16 -0800

That's because we're all running our mouths. No time to drink!

It was a mellow, intimate gathering; I kinda like those. I mean, I also like the huge ones too. I just like changin' it up.
