DFW Dopers: Hawkwood?

Aawwwww… Pete… I feel so loved.
Of course I’m coming [especially when I’ve missed the last few].

[aside]
I’ve been having the absolute worst week of my life [on many levels] and haven’t had the chance to post often. Most of it’s really petty stuff in light of Tuesday, but the whole thing all rolled together has ben occupying my time and draining my emotional and mental energy. Plus, I’m a bit sick right now.

Big things like Tuesday always make the little things worse.

::whispers to Z::
Thanks for the hugs. I’m gonna get some more from my guy later, but he needs help more than me right now…

::back in normal voice::
So, Hackwood is way out in BFE… anyone wanna supply directions?

Well, here’s their map, but I don’t know how helpful that will be. My directions won’t be much better:

From N. Dallas, take take 635 west to 121, 121 to 114 and follow 114 West. Hopefully, right before 35W there will be a sign directing you to turn left, and more signs to guide you to their parking lot.

I’m sure JimB wouldn’t mind if you wanted to meet up with him in Grapevine.

Sure, Zy, I’ll be glad to meet anyone in Grapevine that might have trouble getting there.

Looking forward to it.

Jim

Actually, that sounds like a good idea. Last year we went to supper at Bennigan’s after spending the afternoon at Hawkwood. We could meet at Bennigan’s at Grapevine Mills and carpool to Hawkwood, then eat there afterwards. How does that sound to y’all? We don’t have to choose Bennigan’s either, if the thought of that makes someone barf. Lot’s of restaurants in that general area.

And how about meeting at 2:00 at the chosen restaurant and going from there.
BTW, Grace, you and I should try to be there at 1:30. Not because we need to do something before anyone else gets there, but that will ensure that we get there about the same time as everyone else. :stuck_out_tongue:

I really do try to get there on time. Really! Honest! You’re probably right though. I’ll aim for 1:30 instead of 2:00.

Oops! I forgot to mention that I talked to Aglarond and he said he’d go too. He did ask that we send out an email to give him the information. He’s still not able to access the board from work. Sending an email is probably a good idea just in case some other DFW Dopers have missed this thread.

Any volunteers?

[hopping in Lionors’ lap and wiggling hopefully.]

So, Lionors, how you doing?

I’ve sent out an email to everyone on the email list. If you would like to be on the list, email me with your screen id and whether you would like to be on the DFW Adams family list, or the extended family list :slight_smile:

Phouka, if you’d come visit your brother we could have a dopefest in your honor and then you could flirt with all these cute guys in person.

If any of you ladies are looking for a cute guy to flirt with, I’m declaring myself available! :wink:

Speaking of which, was there ever a concensus taken about when we’re going to do this?

–==the sax man==–

Oops.

Sunday, October 7th, meeting at Bennigan’s in Grapevine at 2:00 unless someone objects.

Tentative attendee list:

Zyada
JimB
Balance
Grace
Hootee
Palmyra
Psieker
Kookalouris

It looks like Lionors and SMUsax may be going as well. Could y’all confirm?

Have I missed anyone?

Grace said Aglarond’s coming, too.

Lightnin’, bdgr and Adam Yax are still in the maybe column, aren’t they?

Arg. I hate to do this, especially since it was originally my schedule that conflicted with a Saturday outing. My IFGS game has been moved to Sunday, so I won’t be able to make it after all. Somebody drink some mead for me, OK?

:frowning:

Would it help if we moved it to saturday? Would anyone but SMUsax have a problem with that?

Don’t miss a chance to hook new people on my account–you know I’ll keep showing up. I could make Saturday, but if SMUsax is looking for an excuse not to show up, you’d better have it on Sunday. :wink:

I can always make the next one. I think we said we were all going to get together to play pool at some point, and Cheffie mentioned a Halloween party…

I work Saturdays. If it has to be a saturday, could it be an evening thing? [I don’t know how Hawkwood operates…]

Since I’ve been fired as of last Tuesday (talk about timing!) and am back home in beautiful post-industrial Garland, I’m down as a tentative.

The only possible conflict is if I find gainful employment in the meantime and my new job schedule conflicts with my being abe to go.

If I come, I’ll be in costume as well (hmmm…kilt or tights?).
