Looks like I’ll be able to make it. So what goes on at these DopeFests? Do we sit around sedately eating watercress sandwiches and discuss World Politics or do we all get drunk and play Naked Twister? Or is it something between those two? 😉 ---

There’s generally a lot of eating, and drinking if you’re so inclined. Our party is family-friendly so there generally isn’t the debauchery you’ll find at a mega-dopefest. This’ll wean you into them niiice and easy. MWAAAAAH ( **moi** ): did you get the email I sent you the other day? I need to know if that’s the correct address. Same with **Asylum**. ---

Is it too late for last-minute additions? If not, I’m in. I suppose directions would be nice also. ---

I would like everyone to look very closely at what I am about to write: SNOW DOES NOT STOP A CANADIAN FROM THROWING A PARTY. Everyone got that? Now, show up or I’ll come to your house and poke you a lot. ---

But this is Baltimore, and we’re Baltimorons. THIS IS A BLIZZARD!!! I mean, c’mon!! It’s four freaking inches! I need to run to the grocery store and buy toilet paper and milk! AGGGGGGHHHHHHH! Disclaimer: I really do need toilet paper. I’m such an idiot. ---

We got a good six inches up in Germantown. I don’t know about you but I have a problem getting out of my section when they don’t plow and all I have is an Escort. ---

I had to buy toilet paper yesterday, so after choir last night I hit the Safeway in Canton and bought it, along with some other stuff I need for the weekend. The looks I got! Shit, this _always_ happens. Every time there’s snow, we’re low on TP. Every damned time. Makes me look like a Baltimoron. **Anita** : Stop being a dirty birdie. ---

Well, my chances of coming are lower now - I have an SUV, and I drive for the hospitals (actually a non-profit health care thingy) when complete idiot doctors can’t get their Jaguars out of the garage, and need a Vermont girl to drive them though the three inch snowfall so they can go save lives. I swear, if it weren’t for the sick people who NEED them…but I digress… I’ve already had one call to ask me to drive tomorrow, at least in the morning…so we shall see. Gingy, could I get some directions in my inbox just in case? And if I don’t see y’all, have FUN for me! AL ---

You guys got four to six up north? Wow, all we got was rain. A little snow, but it didn’t stick. ---
