I also have some crash space - but no sleeping bags, and I have two cats who will cuddle with you while you sleep.

Email’s in the profile!

Ditto again. Also, I’m wondering about my wife being on the list of those who can’t be bothered to go …

Besides the fact that she’ll be tending to the newborn Heap, as arguable a reason as that is, and I know y’all met her and such, but she isn’t a Doper and has no will to become one. Therefore (and dispite the fact that I think her bing on the “Can’t be bothered” list is really funny), for legal reasons I have to question her very non-screenname being in the list at all.

Hmmm … perhaps it would not be entirely silly of me to suggest that my friends - the NYC Dopers - might be interested in a mere 40-minute road trip to see us - the Heaps!

Um, just an idea. I know some of you cats want to see the Heaplette, so I just thought I’d ask.

Ooh! Ooh! I wanna go with the Dopers getting tattoos! I’ll hold your hands, gaze admiringly at your exposed flesh, you know.

[sub]…and I may even gt another one myself…if someone cares to front me the cash…[/sub]

My wee apartment can host one or two!

I’ve received my flight itinerary. Now just waiting on the confirmation.

OH MY GODDESS I AM GOING TO NEW YORK CITY!!!
Sorry about that. I just get a little freaked whenever I think about it. So at this stage of the game, I have these little freak-outs oh, approximately every five minutes or so.

Me too!

::Skips off singing I’m gonna meet Persephone…::

Oh, I think it’s just the thought of possibly seeing me nekkid again that’s doing it.

ok, boys and girls…I’m coming to NYC and you only have yourselves to blame.

Geo Persephone is bunking with me…I fear its the possibility of seeing me nekkid…[sub]which is not a pretty sight[/sub]

I don’t know if I can top the Little Wooden Boy tattoo

Well…yeah, that too. Between you & Arden’s promises of feathers and ice cubes, the freak-outs are getting pretty intense. :eek:

Already packed my scarves, flog and feathers. :smiley:

And I just got my confirmation notice.

AIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!
Excuse me. I need to go put my head between my knees. I’m hyperventilating with glee.

For your perusal, Fun City Tattoo :slight_smile:

Persephone gazing at my exposed flesh? Yay!

I knew there was a reason I was having you crash at my place! :stuck_out_tongue:

Depending on financial stability (and finding a design I like), I MIGHT be up for getting another tat. Then again, I may decide to wait until some of this weight comes off, if I put it where I’m thinking of putting it…

:smiley: Poor lurker.

I know exactly what I want for a tattoo, but it’s not a single session thing.

Oxy, check your email. :slight_smile:

Don’t worry, I’ll get by.
[sub] Gents, I have a key to the place. We have 3 webcams in place - streaming video will be available…[/sub]

Hey gang. This is as good a time as any to officially RSVP for me and Jerseydiamond. Looks like this one might be even cooler than the one LAST january. :slight_smile:

I’m sorry to report that I will NOT be wearing a kilt, but I might bring out my Ramones jacket instead. Actually, on second thought, maybe I shouldn’t. If I do, I’ll be arriving alone. She hates it.

The wee apartment has been claimed. Cheers!

Friday night tattoo.

Hmmmm… This might be the perfect opportunity for a wuss like me to take the plunge.

Y’all will hold my hand, right?
