Hmmmm, Esprix, after the scene you made with CelticCowboy I would certainly have assumed you had called well before now. 
Mr. “I make party plans for a living” waiting till the last minute…what is the world coming to!?!
<preparing to pummel> 
You can also read a little bit about the restaurant here.
Esprix
HA! Made the reservation. Nyeh.
Esprix
No, they’re not out of business, but they do claim to be the last Farrell’s in the country. I put down a deposit, so y’all better show up, dammit!
Esprix
Thanks for thinking of me, Ruffian. You are pretty super. And not normal, not in the least. (I wouldn’t count on a normal person to supply me with cherries at all these dopefests. :))
I won’t be able to make this trip. I am going up north for the weekend to celebrate my friend’s birthday.
It’s too bad, too. I would love to see what this Farell’s is all about. I love ice cream. Love love love it. The stories I hear about Farell’s are very good. Have a sunday or three for me.

TSK. Well, fine Pat…just go on, go see your OTHER friends. I repeat, TSK! 
Meanwhile, I appear to have an allergy to DopeFests. I had bronchitis for the Great DopeToberFest, and am currently fighting off a brutal cold. BUT, I still intend to be there–my voice will just be extra husky.
See y’all tomorrow!
Well, day after tomorrow, but whatever.
God, I went in that place and it was just like I remember it. They even have the big ol’ bass drum to beat on when it’s someone’s birthday. (It isn’t anyone’s birthday on Saturday, is it? That would be KEEN! )
Very much looking forward to this. Did anybody come up with stuff to do beforehand? Afterwards, there are places we can all head out to as an after-party, but we can discuss on-site.
Esprix
DOH!
Big, BIG doh! I can’t believe I’ve had it in my head all this time it was Friday. I so completely suck. (sometimes)
This DOES NOT mean we’re not coming!
it just means, uh…move us to the maybe list
:o
Wha-hah?!?! Hey, you leave me out of this. Next time, plan ahead!
JOhn.
PS I really gotta get around to raising your rent again…
Kathy and I have been waiting for this! We’ll be down Friday night and spend the weekend in Sandy Eggo, first time since we got married last September that we’re getting a weekend away!
Thanks Esprix, Cowboy, and Scout for making this happen! I’m bringing the digital camera, so I can send pictures of the festivities to whomever wants them.
Just look for the tall goofy looking guy with the beard with the cute short blonde
See you then!
Now now, let’s give credit where credit is due. Esprix and Scout are the brains behind this here operation. Past the fact I used to live in San Diego and that I have no filter between my brain and my mouth, I’ve had nada to do with organizing this little shindig. Nothing. Zip. And I like it that way.
I’m strictly here for the company, ice cream, yards of beer, and the Lips Gospel Sunday Brunch.
Humble apologies to all concerned. The wife has bad asthma and her pulmonary specialist wrote in capital letters on her prescription sheet Stay at home! She’s had it for several days now which is why I couldn’t commit definitively. I will not be joining you guys tomorrow, but have a good time.
scout has informed me that my proxy, the charming and shy FairyChatMoose arrived safely. Do me the honor of scribbling a greeting in her diary, so I can live vicariously thru her!!
Have a wonderful time and someone have something chocolate for me!
I don’t think having something chocolate will be a problem in this place.
Confirmed the reservations today - WOO HOO!
Way looking forward to this. See ya’ll in 24 hours!
Esprix
I’m working on getting DeathLlama to go from “maybe” to “definitely.”
For now, we’re just a very strong maybe!
(Oh, and at the last DopeFest I was told by–uh…purplebear, I think?–to not cover up as much. So all-right! Maybe I can slut it up a little…)
Ruffian’s slutting it up? I’m sure that’ll change a few minds right there.
I’m packing my bag as we type - which, incidently, is unrelated to Ruffian’s level of sluttiness. In about 8 hours, there’s this pressurized metal tube that leaves Amsterdam…
Um…maybe we’re blind here, but I can’t find a start time for tomorrow night. I’ve seen the map and the address, but not a specific time.
Help!
(BTW, we may be a bit late. We’re going to Santa Anita to watch a friend’s horse race in a $200,000 stake–post time is around 4pm, which means we’d be leaving around 5pm. That gets us in SD around 7pm.)
Starts at 6:00 p.m. We’ll do food and dessert, so it’s ok if you run a bit late.
Esprix
Aha! After many months of non-posting, my good friend Darkscyde may also be joining us! [sub](Mostly because he has nothing better to do and I twisted his arm, but hey, what are friends for?)[/sub]
Nametags are done. They look spiff.
Esprix
Soooo…
Is anyone else coming who’s in the Ventura County Area?
Can we carpool? I mean, I like to drive and all but it’s going to be a damn long and lonely drive otherwise…
(I must be insane. San Diego Saturday night, UU Sunday Morning & me prepping Easter Dinner Sunday night? :eek: Good thing I’ve got all day Monday to sober up in…)
