Are we all set for OhDope, **Medea’s Child**? I’m planning on being there Friday night (in Pittsburgh, anyway).

It’s been a while since I have taken a look at these boards and despite my neglect, I still plan on coming. As I promised, I did whip up a few batches of homebrew that I will be bringing along with me.
I had planned on coming as the Turkmenbashi in his full ethnic dress, peacock-like. If that strikes anyone as in bad taste, please let me know and I will rethink my outfit. I’m sure I can put together a pirate or crusader or “split infinitive” if I have to. I was really looking forward to my Central Asian gear, though.
I still have a place for outsiders to stay, if they need.

I’m still going with my SO. Please send directions and hotel listings (preferably half way cheap)

It is available now, **sapphy** , now that I’ve backed out.
And a good thing, too. Can you imagine us showing up in the SAME COSTUME?? The HORROR!

Unfortunately, no hot chick can use me as their hot slut for the evening, as I officially will not be able to attend. Too many commitments between work and school for me to take time off and take a trip.
Sorry everyone!

Well, I’m still going to be there. Do we have anything resembling an attendance roster at this point? I’m just curious.

LADIES!
Assuming you were gonna be using **Monster** as your male-slut-of-the-evening, and you are now disappointed, take cheer.
A Mature(me) fella will be there. And I have no problem with being second choice. If you are under 22 years of age, I will pretend you are my “niece” [wink,wink]. If you are between the ages of 23-35, we can say that you are attracted to me as a “father figure.” If you’re over 35, hey! What can I say? You’re old enough to know better! 😃
Pissed that Manny can’t attend, but, even though I live in GQ, I will be there. A two hour drive is too tempting.

Please note any errors or omissions ASAP. Also, drop me an email regarding what snack or whatever you are planning on bringing. There is still room in the spare apartment, IIRC, and the hotels are listed on **[page 1](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=84668)** of this thread. Directions will be coming out in the next week or so.
We’ll need the standard things:[li]pop/soda[_]chips[_]beer[_]alcomahol[_]plastic cupsice[/li]
Sorry that this is such a mess, I can’t quite get the hang of the \ thing, but the info is fairly straighforward.

Through a terrible over-sight, I missed someone in that last missive.

I’d like to also mention that there is a WalMart right up the street, so that should help people that need last minute stuff.

Well…assuming I show up - which is looking pretty good at this point - I’ll bring…hmm…Stroh, I guess. I’m sure we’ll need some of that.
I’m thinking of coming as Cartman.
And I’m crashing in the clubhouse. Or, I could do like I usually do for Chidopes and drive home that night 😉
I just realized this sounds like a bad Clue accusation: “Cartman, in the clubhouse, with the Stroh”…

Hey, I’m bringing **Medea’s Child**. And picking up **Sophie** at the airport. _AND_ I’ll be sporting my **Superdude** costume at OhDope once we hit the festivities. Oh, and **thinksnow** , directions from the airport to your digs would be greatly appreciated.

**MissCreant** and I are roomies at the Courtyard. As for what I’m bringing, I have no clue - I will have to buy something there. Since it’s going to be mostly snack food, should we plan on ordering pizzas or something like that?

Mermaid: Thank you for the wonderful ideas! Alas, my physique is not one conducive to the wearing of leotards (unless I have a sweater to go o’er top 😉 ). What I would do in high school is a goth-y look. I think I’ll do that again, since I like being able to play with makeup. 🙂 (but I will definitely use your cream/powder idea. I hate having runny makeup) 😃

I’m depending on finding floor space and mooching a shower from somewhere at some point in time.
I could probably pick up some Coke and Sprite to attempt to help out. I’m also willing to help clean up. (I’m a college student, please be lenient…)

Well, you know, if we need to conserve hot water, you can always shower with me. 😉

**Medea,** there’s room in the apartment. The more there, the merrier, and cheaper. 😃

It’s not mentioned in the MegaCodeBlockOfDoom, but I was planning on staying in the apartment. I know I mentioned it once or twice, but these threads are loooong.
Since I’m flying in (arriving at 4 Saturday! Someone had _better_\* be there to pick me up!) I’ll buy food, booze or other…incidentals depending on what’s needed Saturday night.

I’m planning on staying in the apartment, too. Cheap is beautiful.
And thanks to **thinksnow** for including me in the festivities…what a gentleman.
I’m really just in it for the backrubs.

I forgot how this works so I’m gonna wing it
**Miss Creant/Yes/snack foods/Miss Creant**
[sub]and yes, there is a tiara involved with being **Miss Creant** [sub]
Staying at the hotel with **porcupine** , hopefully still being picked up at the airport by **Uncle Beer**
(by the way, **Porcupine, tiggeril** and I are all arriving on the same flight…I’ll email you the info)
I’d love to do cheap, but **Miss Creant** , drunk, sniffling and hurling myself around the room sneezing from cats is not a pretty sight. So just a warning: I’m going to want to play with the cats. DO NOT LET ME! YOU WILL BE SORRY! I dearly love the little boogers, but their fur is deadly to my sinuses. _sniff…snifff…wah…I wanna play with the kitties…whaaah_
Ok, shows over, move along, nothing to see here…
