Houston meeting in January?

I have no problem moving to another day but I realize it might inconvenience other people, especially if it’s a weekday. So what’s the consensus?

Hello-I’m a San Antonio gal myself but I would love to make the trip up to meet some fellow dopers. I’ve never attended a Dopefest so this will be exciting. I’m not real familiar with Houston so I can’t make any suggestions for a restaurant, but I’m easy-just name the place. Looking forward to it-

So here’s our plans at the moment:

Saturday, January 31, 5:00 pm

Three Dragons, 1910 Wilcrest

In attendance: bigdfrombigd, BrassyPhrase, Dolores Reborn, lieu, Little Nemo, Tamryne, and anyone else who shows up

Cool! Looking forward to seeing everyone again, and meeting the noobs! (And getting away from cooking duties - LOL!)

I highly recommend the orange chicken or the orange beef. Have some for me. I’m sorry I’m gonna miss out. :frowning:

As an update/bump, I have arrived in Houston.

Welcome, friend. I hope you have a pleasant stay here and I know it’ll be a good dopefest. I’ve been informed we’re already comitted to joining some folks at a comedy club that evening. A Rodney Carrington (?) who’s humor will no doubt pale next to what I could have experienced with y’all. Sorry to miss!

A few days out now. Could people who are planning on attending check in so we have an idea of how many to expect?

I’ll be there! Maybe my husband, too.

I think I can find the place.

Excellent, looking forward to seeing people.

Evening before bump.

Definately going to be there. Probably just me, but the fiance might attend again too.

I’ll try to get there a few minutes early and put up a SDMB sign at a table.

Sorry I’m so late coming to the thread. I’ve got alot going on today, but maybe I can make it out for a few minutes.

I’m on my way!

It was good to see y’all. Take care 'til next time.

Pictures!

Little Nemo and Ringo.

Tamryne and Bob.

Me.

We had fun! Lots of prison stories and assorted other topics. It was good to see you guys again.

Crap! I’m in Houston! I could’ve made that… I’m a noob and all but I’d have like to meet you guys. I guess I should log in more. How was the food? I’m not a fan of Chinese but if it’s really good, I’ll try it. I’d have recommended Beck’s Prime for a burger or some Thai somewhere.

I thought I invited you! I’m sorry you missed it. The Chinese was ok - but the company was superb.

Maybe we can go a little more upscale next time. :smiley:

I agree, Great company and ok food. Maybe Becks, greek or a nice pub next year? It was great seeing Ringo and Little Nemo again, and meeting Dolores Reborn!
