It’s been two months since the last Bamadope, and I figured I’d start the ball rolling on a simple discussion of when a good time for the next one would be.
So just start tossing out ideas. Being the little college student I am, I’m free a lot of weekends…plus, since I am in college now, we don’t necessarily have to have a Bamadope in Tuscaloosa, even though that’d be incredibly convenient for me (I live here now).
I’m fine with having a Dope in B’ham or Montgomery or even Huntsville for that matter, so you guys throw some cards on the table and we’ll try to find what fits.
I’m planning on having a special DopeWarming for my new house, but with framers refusing to call us back who knows when the hell that’ll be… probably not til January at least. If people want to hold off for that, fine, but before then is great too!
I have two weeks off starting at Christmas, plus with enough advance notice I can get pretty much any weekend free.
The location of the last one (that was Tuscaloosa, right?) was fine- only took me about 2 hours to get there. I’ll volunteer for carpooling for anyone from Atlanta… leave your car at my place and we’ll head out together.
I know I’m not a real BamaDoper and all (sniff), but – barring any unforeseen circumstances – I should be in Montgomery just after Christmas. From the stories that I’ve heard, Bamadopers sound like an incredible bunch, and I’d like to meet y’all, gosh darn it.
Well, Nocturne, sweetie doll, that’s 'cause I didn’t think I HAD to hit on you. Figured I’d made my intentions quite clear. Thought you realized you’d gone straight past getting hit on and right into ‘full contact flirting’ in that little black book of mine.
But if you’re not clear on the subject, perhaps I can help illuminate things for you…
Of course there is still the 1 in 3 chance work is going to throw a pisser in any schedule I try to set up.
when we get to figuring out a time and a date I will know more.
Well, do we want a multi-day thing? We could do the 28-29th, Friday and Saturday. That might entice people who are a little further away [sub](like, oh, say… just off the top of my head… think and superdude)[/sub]. Otherwise we could just do the Saturday thing, but I’d like to suggest that people who could make it earlier than last time should do so, then meet up with the dinner crowd. Think of the sales that will be going on…
Oh, and Noc sweetie… you haven’t anything to say in reply to my post?
Actually, I have a different car than I had at the time of the last one (bad car, breaking down like that). It all depends on work, and we’ve not planned our schedule that far out yet. But, I know we’re closed the 24th & 25th, and I’ve put in for vacation the 26,27 and 28. Assuming boss lady is cool with that, then it’s all good.
28th and 29th of December? Can I go into the “possibly” pile? [sub]Thinking I couls go to the “absosmurfly” pile if bobkitty and Nocturne promise to do naughty things to me.[/sub]
I promise to do absolutely HORRENDOUS things to you Superdude, but bobkitty gets me first.
'kitty, darling, I think the 28th-29th is a good idea (even though I’ll be at home for the holidays then, I can always sneak down here. I think. I’ll find some excuse.)
But hey, if anyone has better ideas (yeah, right) then give them to me.
And if your name is Ogre or SilkyThreat, where the hell are you?
Yeah!! And… and… DQ! And… well, Simetra doesn’t count 'cause Serendipity will bring him. And TheNerd just got misplaced last time, took a wrong turn somewhere, so he probably won’t be there.
Or rather, he’s bringing me. I still need to run this by him, but I can’t imagine he would be opposed to getting together with BamaDopers during my visit.
