Ivylad is in, so move me out of Maybe into Quite Possibly category. We just need to nail down a location and a time.

I agree with the Old Towne idea. However, I most likely will not be able to make it if we are not talking about an evening thing. I don’t get out of school til after 5 most Saturdays, and by the time I get home, wash the random hairs and hair dye off me, it’s usually after 8pm. Not to mention clearing my lungs of all the bleach dust I had inhaled in that day.

Trust me - it takes a LOT of nose-blowing and really isn’t pretty.

Whatever you guys do, have fun!

I’m casting my vote on old town as well. Just out of curiosity, how much do cabs usually run in the area?

Oh my, I just remembered that I signed up for a dodgeball tournament on that day, starting at 5PM. I’ll try to make it, but I can’t promise anything =/

Depends how far you’re going. If you live within ~10 minutes, I don’t mind picking you up on my way through. It’s a 45 minute drive anyway.

Sorry I won’t be able to make it. I’ve got an out of town gig that night and will be travelling.

Have fun! I’ll miss you all. (even the ones I haven’t met yet)

If you’re out of the way for **Really Not All That Bright** , we could always pick you up.  
So, to sum up, it looks like we’re meeting at Old Town. Still haven’t decided on a time, but it looks like late afternoon and evening are winning out. What’s the earliest starting time any of you can make it, for those who have scheduling conflicts?

I could make it any time, and since it’s a Saturday, traffic would be the same at any sane hour, so no real preference for time.

I am still going to be on call, so I will drive myself there in case I have to hustle back to Palm Bay if the pager goes off.

I think we’ve decided on Old Town. Earliest I can make it is around 8PM.

Sun on the Beach bar? I was underage last time I went to Old Towne so I have no idea.

Is there A target time yet? I may need to go into work for a little bit that morning. Also thanks to those who offered rides. I may need one of those. I’ll have more info later on tonight.

How about around 7-7:30? those who are later won’t miss much, and we can still get food before heading off for drinks?

The time sounds fine to me, but what is Old Town? Is that like Winter Park Village? Where exactly are we meeting?

Can we start a little bit earlier than that? I can go all night, but I’d rather be looking for the place in not-total-darkness.
