Antigen has joined us from Canada (who on earth moves here from Canada, anyway?) and we’re going to properly welcome her with a Dopefest on April 14.
It will be at our place in Parkville (Baltimore County) and begin at around 2:00, going until whenever we kick Paul out.
If you’ve been here before, you know the drill; if you’re new:
Email for address and directions. I send out a group e-mail with detailed directions prior to the date of the party.
Bring something (food, drink, paper plates, etc) to share. Please let me know what you’re bringing. This time of year we might do burgers and hot dogs (and I’ll always have something vegetarian friendly as well, because I’m awesome).
Paul and Walter will get lost at some point. This is normal.
Jim and Dwight will end up in Delaware. This is also normal.
We’re kid-friendly and smoking-hostile. Smoking is okay if it’s outside and you don’t throw your butts on my lawn or in my neighbour’s yard.
There is absolutely no actual Dope at my dopefests.
My house will not be tidy. Oh, it’ll be clean, but it will probably be in some state of disarray. Come prepared.
It appears that my sister will be here from the Arctic at that time, so you’ll be allowed to frighten her by being creepy internet people at her. This is always a good time, as some of you may remember from our wedding.
I have never brought either of those things, and I’m offended that you’d suggest as much!
Ovaries belong in the lab, and jalapeño peppers belong somewhere else. Preferably nowhere near the ovaries…
Liar liar, pants on fire! You brought me 6 pounds of yummy frozen jalapeño peppers right before Christmas! Granted, they were from moi but you did bring them.
I’m in, along with mudgirl and EtheralFreakOfPinkness. Don’t know about the hubby yet. I called him at work, but he pretended he was too busy to talk about it (c’mon, he’s a federal employee, and he’s had the job for over a year. You can’t tell me he wasn’t just fakin’ this “busy” thing).
Subject to my travel schedule (or having a schedule), I’ll be there.
(This week’s twist is that sending us software engineers to install the software we engineered may blow out the program budget. I think we’ll have to demand more money for the follow-on installations.)
I’ll think of some food stuff to bring (right now I’m in NO GRAIN mode). I may bring Cuba Libres and travel photos.
