If we’re at the Dagos, and if we have the big party table in the back, and if you tell the hostess you’re there for the Dopefest, I don’t imagine it’ll be a problem.
In Los Hideous, we’re usually the “Cecil Adams party”.
Hey, can anyone come?
I’m in Seattle, with a car.
Sure, lissener, just let katrina know that you plan to attend, so she knows how many to make arrangements for. Or-are we supposed to be telling Pluto these details?
katrina and I will be calling to make the reservation. The Dagos owners are friends of ours, so we might be able to swing an extra favor or two. As it stands right now, it looks like we’ve got about ten people who are solid, five possibles, and maybe a couple more long shots.
Date: October 6
Time: 7:00
Place: Two Dagos from Texas
Sound good?
Oh my, that’s like three blocks from me, but I already bought movie tickets for that night (note to self: duh). But maybe I’ll show up anyway. After all, that’s a payday!
By all means coordinate with katrina and Cervaise.
I apologize if it has seemed like I’m trying to take over planning and coordination of this event. It’s just my enthusiasm (and my control-freak personality) showing through.
Now, I have prepared a seating chart, and each of you should have received a list of gift suggestions by now. Please R.S.V.P no later than Sunday … (Just Kidding!!!)
k and C, put me in with the definites. I’ll surely be there.
lissener, what’s the movie? Maybe we could all go and pick apart the plot and special effects.
I would like to try to come (though I have a very early appointment the next morning.) Can I please be included in any group emails about this event?
See my profile for my email address.
Thanks,
Leslie
Hey, Leslie-
No one is ignoring you, here. Just email katrina with your intention to be there, so she knows how many people to add to the reservation count. We (well, I anyway,) am looking forward to meeting you and the BoyNextDoor!
Come on now, honey, you know that us PNW Dopers are a laid back group, and not given to outbursts of emotion and PRESSURE to join. If you wanna come, we’ll (or at least I) will be so THRILLED to meet you!
(Okay, well maybe I am prone to outbursts of emotion, but you are just going to have to accept me as I am or toss me into the street. I yam what I yam, ya’ know?)
AND I LOVE YOU GUYS!
Scotti
Hey, can I have an update? I am planning on coming down, and want to confirm that this is really going to happen.
RJK, do you know what your plans are yet?
Scotti
Hi there…
I saw this thread late… hopefully there’s still time to join in. I’m in vancouver and wouldn’t mind attending. I just happen to have a couple days off on the 5th and 6th… funny that. Need a ride, RJK? If anyone needs to get in touch with me – ndentonhowes@radical.ca
-nigel
oh, and can anyone give me directions once I get into town? I’m going to assume there’s only one freeway I would be on… anyone know the way from it?
-nigel
So, Niggle-
RJK talked about catching a bus to Bellingham, and riding down with me. I don’t know if he was able to arrange the evening off of work.
Email katrina with your plans to be there, she is handling the reservations. Assuming this is a go, of course.
So, once we hear from RJK, maybe we can arrange to “car pool” or something. katrina also said she would email directions, but I haven’t heard back from her.
<ahem> Sounds good, 'cept one small problem. I’ve only got a two-seater. =( I swear every time I do something social I curse buying a sportscar. If RJK has an alternate way to get all the way to seattle we could arrange something, though. I guess you don’t like driving, huh?
-nigel
No, I’m okay with driving. It is not my FAVORITE thing to do in Seattle, but I don’t think it would be a problem. The restaurant appears to be fairly close the the Seattle Center, and I can get THERE, no prob. Let’s wait to hear from RJK, and then decide what to do. Maybe the two of you could come to B’ham, and I can drive from there.
Sorry to say, but I gotta cancel. I’m going out to the beach to visit with my mom. She’s about to leave on a cross-country RV trip, and this’ll be my last chance to see her this year.
I really hate missing this. Sorry.
After all my bitching and whining, it turns out I gotta be at a Girl Scout function that night. (I’m the Troop Leader.)
I am so lame.
OK everyone-
This Friday is a go. I’m sorry I’ve been delinquent about directions, but they’re coming in the next 24 hours. Please do RSVP, either on the board or to me via email if you’re coming, or if you might be coming.
This is gonna be fun!
