And yes, I know that is the same weekend as OhDope. 🙂

Want to meet **Crunchy Frog, Tequila Mockingbird, Turbo Dog,** even **hardygrrl**?

The tentative plans are meeting at Dave and Buster’s on the 26th. I fly down from Chicago the 25th, and after I take a nap at Crunchy’s, (yes, an actual nap. I’ll have to get up at five a.m. to make my flight. Sue me, I’m old and need my sleep) I’m sure Crunchy wouldn’t mind meeting up with any interested parties. I’m all for meeting new people. Going to DopeFests is apparently addictive. 🙂

[sub]I hope I don’t get lost at the airport. Since I’ll have to meet Crunchy at the baggage claim instead of the gate, and I’m not even checking my bag if I don’t have to…Crunchy, look for the short redhead, wearing all black and impossibly tall shoes. I’ll look for the tall guy, leather jacket, goatee and blond streak over his left eye.[/sub]

**Miss B Haven** will most likely be there also. Couple maybes from others.

It is Dave and Buster’s on the 26th at 7pm. Email me for directions if anyone needs them.

You can sleep on the airplane! I work nights and don’t wake up till 2pm, so having to wake up at 10am to go you would be like me waking up at 4am if I worked days. I’ve got first dibs on naps. You can hang out in the recliner and watch the Dogma DVD and I’ll try not to snore too loudly.

If you stick by the baggage claim area you won’t get lost. Take my home number with you just in case. So you’ll be wearing the standard urban uniform of all black huh? Oh yeah, I’ll spot you no problem, that’ll make you stand out. :rolleyes:  
And just so you know, I’m not going to be much taller than anyone else there - I’m only 5’10" or so - and if it’s raining that day, I won’t be wearing the leather jacket.

Geez, **Crunchy** I can’t nap too?

Ok, to be more specific…you saw the superhero pic, look for that hair color. Black velvet jeans, black sweater and short black vinyl coat.

And I’m five feet tall barefooted, EVERYONE’S tall to me. 🙂

I thought jeans were made of denim…  
Regardless, this should make for some interesting times at the airport as I feel up short girls’ legs.

“No, really lady, I was just seeing if it’s velvet. I meeting someone who’s wearing velvet pants!”

Sure, **Crunchy** , any excuse…

I’ll be the woman who doesn’t hit you with my purse. 🙂

I’m at **Crunchy’s** now. The flight wasn’t too bad, except for having my carry on searched. Good thing I didn’t bring the vibrator. 🙂  
Seriously, **Crunchy** is just as funny IRL as he is here, and on the phone.

If only he’d stop rubbing vaseline all over himself and looking at me funny…

Back home…  
Had a blast. Thursday me and **Crunchy** hung out. We had a MST3K marathon, ate Chinese and played a fiercely competetive game of Trivial Pursuit. [sub]He won, but it was very close.[/sub]

Friday, more MST3K and then we met **Tequila** and **Turbo**. Tequila is beautiful, and I covet her leather jacket. Turbo is not the asshole he claims to be, but A very funny guy. We had fun at Dave and Busters, then had dinner at a restaurant whose name escapes me at the moment, where we talked movies.

Crunchy kept a quote book. The only quote I can clearly remember is one of mine…said during the Trivial Pursuit game, mind you…

“Don’t get cocky with the pie.”

Shit, almost forget to mention it, as if his ego needs the boost…

**Crunchy** is hot, even for a Cardinals fan. 🙂
