DC mefites assemble!

December 22, 2004 7:19 PM

DC mefites assemble! The time of the metafilter gathering draws nigh. Tryst is the venue, and your hostess is the lovely and talented amandaudoff.

The date of the gathering is December 29th, the time is 7:00 PM.

(Note: I am not a DC mefite, as I live in sunny Virginia Beach, VA, but I'm going to drive up for the get-together, assuming one or two of you are committed to going.)

So the first year I don't go home to Annapolis, you have this when I would be there. Well. I hope that my fellow Mar'lund MeFites descend upon you and show you a good Bal-mur time! ;)

(ps - for those of you who have never drank in Baltimore, this is akin to the Chinese curse of "May you have interesting times." ;)

i'll try to be in, even if only to meet this haydanno who works for the Man for i believe we all know which "Man" he's talking about.

It happens, armage. I've been SOL the last 2 or 3 DC-area meet-ups. But I'll make this one.

Work is now seriously busting my ass, so I may or may not be able to make it. I think this would be the first meet up I've missed since I met NortonDC (unlike the rest of you slackers :P).

I'm pretty sure they do. We'll see if I'm brave enough to come.

Of course there's booze! That's the point of meetups, isn't it?

...isn't it?

Aww, I'll just miss out. I'm home in VA, visiting my folks, but I'll be leaving the 29th.

Ah well, I know brownpau's currently in the Philippines, anyway, so there'll be a few of us game for another meetup in the spring, I'm sure ;-)

That was fun guys. Though I'm not feeling much like getting my ass to work this morning.

Me either. Good to see you again; New York is lucky to get you!

Hey, did mojohand get home? I can't find an email for him.
posted by CunningLinguist at 1:05 PM on December 30, 2004

Three points:

1) What an outstanding evening. Great meeting you all. Thanks, amandaudoff.

2) I really must get my email up on my member page.

3) Jeez, I must have appeared really hammered. Actually, by the time I left I was just lightly hammered, and it was a short ride back, and I made it just fine.

No no no. I was projecting.
*I* was fairly in the bag, but didn't have to ride a motorcycle and those things make me nervous anyway.

Amanda put pix up here.
