Eh, I’ll give you the REAL directions, Olent.
Tomorrow’s Friday, in case the week snuck up on you like it has me.
I’ll be there. SqrlCub will be there. And, if people who didn’t make it last week are coming, my Sweden pictures will be there, too.
But, will you be there?
No, sorry, not this time.
Wish I could.
But I will drop by next year.:)
I’m free for lunch today so what the hell.
Dammit, would you guys bump this thread up on Thursday or something?! I need an early reminder so’s I can remember it before it happens.
sigh and I got a free burrito coming to me at the stand, too.
Whine whine whine, Olent…I can’t even GO, so hush!
I bumped it Thursday night.
It was just dcnewsman, SqrlCub and myself today. We went to the Au Bon Pain at Vermont and L Street.
I showed the remaining pictures from Sweden, we talked about how quickly this week moved, and also the mysterious X-mas gift for Anniz that I can’t seem to have shipped out of the country by an on-line retailer.
I know I am a little late for lunch today - but is this an on-going thing? I could make it some time, if such is the case.
Hey, Vector, welcome to the SDMB!
Yes, it’s a regular thing. We meet at noon on Fridays at the Vermont Ave. exit of the McPhereson Sq. Metro stop.
A few of the usual suspects at the DC Lunch Bunch include myself, Olentzero, dcnewsman, SqrlCub, pldennison, and the newest member: RTFirefly.
There are pictures of some of us on the People of the Straight Dope picture pages.
Hope to see you there next Friday!
So I’d noticed; only problem is I read the SDMB during the day from work. Don’t usually read it once I’m home. I mean, I do have priorities!
Hey look, I remembered this week!
Anyone else up? I been saving my free burrito card all week for this. Vector and Bluemonchichi, if you’re still reading this, you’re welcome to join us!
Yay, Olentzero remembered!
I’ll be there…
I’m in but Sqrl has something at work and won’t be able to join us. See you at noon at the Metro station.
Regrettably, I can’t make it today. I’m swamped with work, and I’m rather underfunded, too.
Have fun without me, gang.
So is it just Olentzero and me? Are we still doing this or should we wait til next week?
Damn! Stupid LAN people worked on my comp for most of the morning and I couldn’t get in till now. I guess we’ll just call it on account of underattendance till next week; just to be safe I’m gonna see if you’re out at the Metro and talk to you there.
Guess we missed each other. I walked up but didn’t see you at the Metro so I walked up to the burrito stand. So are we all going to get together next Friday, remember it is the last work day before Christmas…I’m not sure who is working that day or not. I will be.
Dammit! Sorry I missed you - musta been by just a couple of minutes. Since the last workday of the year for me is next Friday, I’m definitely going to show up. I was also thinking - why don’t we try keeping the DCLB to every other Friday? That way people can plan for it and we won’t get so discouraged with low attendance every week. What say y’all?
The every-other-Friday idea sounds good to me, Jeff.
I can’t make it next week (I’ll be in FL), but starting two weeks from then, January 5, I ought to be able to join you guys on a fairly regular basis, if that’s the ‘every other week’ chosen. (That’s my AWS Friday. :))
Sorry I didn’t make it today - had to put my wife on a plane at BWI.
So, it’s Thursday again. In other words, time to bump this thread so DC folks (we have some newbies, right?) can see it and respond in time.
Are we a go for tomorrow? Noon at the usual spot?
I should be there.
