If the big ole party is either of those weekends, I won’t need to burn anything while I’m there. Chanukah is the last week of December this year. ---

> [@GingerOfTheNorth](#): > > Delaware does not exist. As far as I’m concerned, you live in Elkton. 😛 Eeww, no, Elkton sucks. Delaware seems much better. And I’ve been to Delaware. As far as I can tell, it consists of a wonderful children’s hospital, one other hospital with mean nurses and a bunch of crappy psych facilities. I always get lost in Delaware. I’ve been there, but I don’t like it much. 😉 ---

I haven’t moved, so I am still officially the closest doper to Gettysdope (as far as I know). I guess that means I don’t have an excuse when I show up late. ---

I’ve lived my entire life in VA (Lynchburg–\>Yorktown–\>Williamsburg–\> Norfolk, VA currently). Thats a good 23 years right there. And now i’ve shared more personal information here than in any other thread probably. But yeah, I’ll always love the East Coast forever and ever. ---

Also … I’m a notorious Dopefest Whore, and I’ll go anywhere reasonable to have a good time. Not to mention that \*\*Gingy \*\*loves me … so I got that going for me too (as long as \*\*WeirdDave \*\*doesn’t mind). 🙂 ---
