Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

What a crazy few days! For me, though, it’s been an insane week, because I spent my evenings after work doing marathon cleaning sessions in preparation for my guests.

Best. Montreal. DopeFest. To date.

Many thanks to all that participated:

I think that’s everyone… if I’ve forgotten you, forgive me, but I’ve been strung out for the past few days, and it’s early in the morning.

Special thanks to our out-of-town Dopers, lno, Elenfair, and Maeglin. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you’ll always be welcome at the Evil Pad®, threadbare as it may be.

Kudos to Bunny for thriving on my balcony while Zap the Wonder Pup was here. :smiley: OK, it’s because she peed on lno He had it coming ;).

Daerlyn, I have one word for you:
OOPS!

The whole weekend was amazing. It got off to a bad start with lno’s car being rifled through, but things picked up. Drinks at Drugstore, running into my former boyband :confused: , drinks at Grumpy’s… Biodôme, La Belle Province, waiting for our table at Moe’s Deli & Bar even though I made reservations last week… A very, very late night at LaurAnge’s place. Lunch in Chinatown, dinner on the Plateau, makeshift karaoke at my place with matt_mcl and detop.

Fun, fun, fun.

Do come again.

Had a good time for the little bit of the Dopefest I could attend. Can’t wait until I’m up in the area more. I’ll be at the next one.

First of all, a huge THANK YOU to scott_evil for undertaking all the logistics of this event. What a weekend ! It’s all a blur of food and beer so far, but I wouldn’t have missed it for anything in the world. It was so pleasant to associate faces with some posters.

Also I would like to take advantage of the occasion to announce another Montréal Dopefest, tentatively fixed between end of February to mid-March : SUGARDOPE !, a traditional Québec sugaring party, stay tuned in the following days for more details !

I would like to report that lno arrived relatively unscathed in RI around 7ish PM this evening and is now fast asleep in my spare room. It took him a few hours longer than expected due to unfortunate directions from a yokel in upstate NY, but all was well and he made it here.

He sends his love. Or, he would if he wasn’t zonked out.

I think eating the beaver is an excellent idea.

Glad to hear that lno made it safely. And Maegs, you weren’t supposed to eat the whole beaver, only its tail :smiley:

Daerlyn, how many slapsie fights did I get into with matt? :smiley:

10

Last count, that I was aware of, was twelve . . . plus whatever you guys did on Sunday night while I was asleep and noone called me to wake me up. You all suck. L :stuck_out_tongue:

11

I think they were too busy serenading each other with the theme from Shaft to get into any more slapfights.

12

Maeg, I almost choked when I read that! I had almost forgotten :smiley:

You guys were lots and lots of fun. You rock.

13

Actually, Daer, I think we were at 18 with the slapfights. :smiley:
