Superdude - I would suggest either the saturday or sunday afternoon games. Dropzone - Would you rather pay $200 for a $25 seat? I know what you mean. I just know that there are plenty of baseball fans who would consider it a bargain. ---

I’m glad I’m not the only gal that’s thought of that. I get cold easy so I’ll probably be wearing something a \*little \* warmer to the Main at night. Well-fitting Levis and a sleeveless turtleneck that ends above my bellybutton (don’t want to hit that new ring!). ---

Holy fright, I better figure out what I did so I can do it again! 😃 **Miss** , in case you missed it, I’m getting my belly button pierced Saturday afternoon while **Superdude** gets a tat. I have to wear something that will 1) show off my belly [sub]worked hard enough for it, she whines[/sub]; and 2) won’t rub on that new piercing! ---

**jarbaby, jarbaby** - do you think I would hang a sistah out to dry? You are clearly negotiated into the SuaSponte custody agreement. I look forward to wacky stories of jury service. ---

How are we going to be sure you’re cold? 😛 You know, I love this thread. What are we on now, page **9**? This whole fest has got to set some kind of record.

Yep, **Bunny** , I think we’re rivalling the _SLO-Fest_ for pre-Fest posts. The Halloween dopefests (both of them) are sure to do the same. As for “swooning,” well, I was hot and dehydrated, yeah, and I had my legs locked, right, so, you know, I was hungry and stuff. It has nothing to do with my utter fetish for bare skin on toned bodies. Nothing at all, I assure you. [sub]Racer back tank, you said, right?[/sub] ---

My eyes, MY EYES! Ahem. Do any of the planned Resi’s crowd mind supplying me with a cell phone number? Vix will arrive at my house a little bit after 10, I want to be able to call and see if you guys are still there before we make the trek. Email is in my profile, thanks. ---

**BunnyGirl** , the old thread was 6 pages, and this is on page 4. With the ways things are going, we may have to start another “Countdown” thread. 😉 I know I am going to be posting more, since I have nothing better to do anymore. I think tomorrow will be my last day in the office. I’m ready to start drinking at Resi’s early. How about 2pm? ---

**SuperDude** and **I** should be arriving around 8-ish, depending on traffic. I guess we should expect a drunk **porcupine** to greet us? ---

Feel free to indulge in any carnal activities you desire with me, **porc**! And, **magdalene** , ya can give me a call on my cell phone at 502-821-9586. Providing my service works up there.

Can anyone clue me in on the parking situation at Resi’s? I’ll have my pesky car with me, and I have no idea whether it’s realistic to think I can park in the vicinity or not. If it’s NOT, any ideas on where to dump my vehicle? ---

Parking near Resi’s isn’t the WORST, but you may have to drive around for a bit. Your best bet is actually to go up Damen a little bit and try the residential streets within a block or so of the bar (where I live 😃 ) Stories of jury service will abound! After all, I got to be the foreman! jarbaby ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by thinksnow \* > I guess we should expect a drunk **porcupine** to greet us? Well, I always say, drink early and often. If I’m not drunk, I’ll at least be sustaining a nice buzz. Anyone else up for early drinking at Resi’s? ---

**Bunny** I knew you were getting a piercing, but I’m just bummed that I can’t. Other question, who’s bringing the camera? I think I’m going to pick up a nice disposable for the occasion. ---

Anyone else up for early drinking at Resi’s? \*\* I’ll check for earlier flights and try standby, maybe skip out of work at, oh, say, lunchtime? Fact I’m using freaky flier miles for this flight may have some bearing… But with the hopes of downing a few with the **Amazing porcupine[sup]TM[/sup]**, I will make a valiant attempt.
