Maybe. Depends on if my #!@!@ house sells and I move before then. 'course, Monroe looks to be GOOD LORD! I just looked it up on the map. Isn’t that OHIO?!? Can you GET any farther south?!?
Guess I won’t be going to that one.
When’s the Mackinaw City dopefest? I’ll drive to that one.
Newbster, heh first time I’ve heard that one! This post is just full of strange occurances for me, first meeting my next door neighbor, and now Juniper mentions ether. My friends and I created an alcoholic drink and called it Ether, because of the absolutely horrible taste. Maybe I’ll bring some along…
Well, I think that on December 29th I’ll still be hosting my family from Nebraska, and it might be bad form to just abandon them. But I’ll see. Maybe I can send the menfolk off to “College Hockey At The Joe” or something and leave Cranky Jr with the wimmins and sneak off.
You think it’s freaking you out Persephone?!?! I’ve been livin next to this guy for a while now, and I never had talked to him before. Now, by some freak coincidence we meet on an internet message board? That’s some pretty scary stuff, cool at the same time. Maybe we’ll actually talk to each other now lol.
Sorry, Cristi. But imagine how I felt to discover it! You don’t suppose the elderly lady who lives next to you is a Doper, do you? Hopefully the “freakiness” will wear down enough by December–I don’t want to prevent whatever magik you’ve got planned.
Newbie: I did talk to your dad (or not; I guess one shouldn’t make assumptions, especially on this board) briefly once or twice before I moved in two years ago. But I’m not a social butterfly, and I’d feel pretty strange actively walking up to random people around town to make conversation.
Not sure how familiar you are with everyone on the boards, but it’s technically possible you may have even seen Medea’s Child, as she came by to visit one Saturday. (She was one of the tall blondes. ;))
I dunno about Mackinaw, but how 'bout the Charlevoix area? Milossarian is nearby as is my brother, who’s now a Doper. And his wife is threatening to register, too. Maybe next spring would be a good time to bring this up again.
If we do one in Charlevoix in the spring (My Spring Break is the third week of March…is it spring yet up there in the third week of March?) can we go to Tapawingo? It’s nearby(ish), and I’ve wanted to eat there since…since always, I think. It costs a bit, but I’ve been saving anyway.
Alas, I won’t be able to attend this one. I’ve already committed to BamaDope on the same day. Even though Flint’s closer, I hate winter. thinksnow, it’s time for me to drop my training wheels. I’ve accompanied you to every DopeFest I’ve been to. I must go one alone.
TheNewbie here…just giving this post a well deserved bump Maybe we’ll be able to recuit some more dopers to come to the party…er, I mean dopefest…er, that sounds bad too doesn’t it? Oh well, it’s not my house! smiles at Juniper200
Hell, it’s not techincally my house, either. Not like I even live there most of the time anymore. Indeed, I move away for good to parts unknown in May. So I say let’s trash the place.
Well, as a rule, I don’t usually venture below the bridge. Troll country, y’know. But maaaaybe, just maybe, I can make an exception for ya dopers. I like the Tapawingo idea. I’ve been wanting to go there for a while, too.
This is just a little bump to see if anyone is still interested in this. The first response wasn’t entirely overwhelming, so I’m open to suggestions for other locations, times, etc. I’d hate to have people come all the way to Monroe only to hang out with boring old me and three other people for a few hours.
Yeah, well. I insist Thinksnow wears his goddamned underwear to this one. I’m getting tired of those pictures of his hairy ass. The people here at work are startin’ to wonder.
