Ok, I think the thread title is self-explanitary. Who’s up for a DopeFest in St. Louis at the end of the month? I’m off work Oct 26-28. Maybe a Halloween party or something?

I can put up one, maybe two people at my place if you come in from out of town and need a place to stay. Three people if someone brings an air matress.

Email me or respond to the thread so we can make some plans.

I’m in.

Can I crash at your place?

Ya know, I am starting to feel major amounts of jealousy. First, **hardygrrl** gets to meet **UncleBill** (and the other way around). Now she gets to meet **Crunchy**.

What does it take for a girl (a _broke_ girl) to meet you people??!!! 😃  
_sigh_ One of these days. One of these days…  
On to the OP…

Ron, you know I’ll be there in spirit, since I don’t have the cash to be there in person. So have lots of spirits for me?

And now that someone’s taken up my offer of crashing at my place, I’ll have to do some cleaning.

Anyone have a vacuum I can borrow?

☹

**Spiny Norman** and I won’t be there until the end of _next_ month. Oh well. Have fun without us!

I really appreciate your consideration in avoiding stepping on my penis - **Spiny Norman**

Hmmm… I don’t know what my work schedule will be next month, but I’m up for 2 DopeFests in 2 months. Maybe if people can’t make the October one, we can entice them to make the November one with the added lure of meeting you and **Norman**. 🙂

**Pisces,** my pet…how soon you forget.

You also met **UnclceBill** as well as **KatieKilldare**. I’m just evening the score 🙂

My dance card is full of OhDope goodness that weekend, but you can probably count me in for the next one. Have fun!

:muttergrumbleetceteraetcetera:

Dammit, **Crunchy**. Had to pick OhDope weekend, eh?

Ah well, if I decide that I can’t spend the money to head out there, I’ll drop by St. Louis.

Yeah, but **katiekilldare** was just the added bonus when we had Sara-Dope! It wasn’t an intentional “Wow, I get to meet **katiekilldare**!” as much it was a “Wow, I just met **katiekilldare**! And I’m leaving Florida _why_???”

**UncleBill** was intentional… on both of our parts. So he cancels himself out. Now, **Crunchy** , on the other hand… **Crunchy** I’ve been trying to get to come meet me for months and months and months, to no avail. (Well, maybe to _some_ avail, if he makes it to [the Mega-Dopefest](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=88676)) But it still means that you’ve gotten to meet him first!

So, damn it, I’ve got a _right_ to be jealous! 😛

I didn’t realize it was the same time as OhDope. How about we just put it off until November then, when **Shayna** and **Spiny Norman** will be in town?

Well, don’t do it on my account, certainly. I’m not one to delay a party, I’m just one to bitch about missing it 😉

We’re also losing **Juniper** to OhDope also. Maybe we can get more at LouDope if some of the people going to OhDope can make it here. Since the OhDope’s been in planning longer, I’d think that has dibs.

Let’s push this one off to November, since we already know **Shayna** and **Spiny Norman** we’ll be in town then and maybe they could stop by for a bit.

I’ll check into when people will be available and talk to my supervisor to make sure I get the necessary days off. I’ll open a new thread when I get more info. In the meantime, I’ll ask a mod to close this off so as not to cause confusion.

I just wanna say that I didn’t mean for you guys to postpone your gathering on our account. However, we’d love to meet the St. Louis Dopers if you decide to have a Dopefest over the Thanksgiving weekend, which is when we’ll be in town.
