Revised Plan for MI/OH Dopers to get together

It’s times like these when I wish I could fork over the money for a car instead of classes and books and a roof over my head and all.

Have fun, guys! :slight_smile:

That post above by pucette was not by pucette, it was by me. Ender. I showed it to her and she was so repulsed by the sheer stupidity of the comment that she refused to allow me to besmirch her good name.
I am unbesmirching it now. In fact, I’m resmirching it.

I don’t know if I can go…yet. I think my husband has a gig that afternoon. BUT, if I can get him to ride with someone else, and find a sitter for my kids, I’m there.

Unless mrblue wants to drive me there…again…no wait, I drove last time…yeah, it’s his turn…:smiley:

So, is this still a go for this Saturday?

Well, I’m going to be there. And I’m forcing quixotic78 to go, too. He’ll be the lone Ohio representative, I think.

I keep seeing all these signs saying “Shuttle for Art Fair.” I haven’t ventured downtown since the fair started, but the signs make me think that traffic will be a nightmare, and shuttles are a Good Idea. Cranky, do you have an idea for meeting at a shuttle stop, or at a cafe or something? Anyone have a time in mind?

Crap, this won’t happen for me because:

  1. I’m too wiped out from work and a horde of other activities to make a 16 hour drive this weekend. Is my age showing yet?

  2. I have a date Friday night. Crankster, babe, I love ya, but you’re married and she’s not. :smiley: (Also, I made the date after I decided I wasn’t going…don’t feel bad.)

Oh well…I’ll be back in MI in a month anyway. Here’s hoping we can do an MI Renaissance Dope this fall!

I suppose I could drop by Persephone’s place, assuming she can keep the three-headed dog at bay this time.

Of course, a specific time for this whole deal would be nice. cough

OKAY.

We will meet at 1 pm Saturday at the center court of the Briarwood Mall. Once we are all assembled, we will proceed to the Shuttle Bus departure area and head to the Art Fair.

I will be looking for Ender (he’ll probably be beside me), Kyla & quix, Shadowfox, Persephone, and MrBlue92. Others are welcome, but you better either get there early or tell me you’re coming, because otherwise I’ll think everyone is accounted for and we’ll leave when the aforementioned list of people gathers.

AFTER Art Fair, we will go back to the mall and our cars and then we can go to The Cranky Manor and figure out what we’re doing for dinner. If anyone wants to do dinner but ain’t meeting us for the art fair, this would also be a good time to let me know. Hint, hint. Anyone who needs to get home and can’t stay for dinner, that’s fine too.

Bring a hat or sunglasses (perhaps both) and wear good walking shoes.

Yes, in fact, I am bumping my own thread again.

Am I loser? Yeah, pretty much.

Oh yeah. I have a positive confirmation. I’m gonna be there. Sorry about that. :smiley:

Oh, and mrblue? Sorry about the dog thing. he didn’t mean to do…that…in your truck bed last time. He just gets a little excited. I’ll make sure he’s in the basement tomorrow, I promise.
