Wonko: it was something at the Central Park Zoo, in the Rain forest section… called a coluba or something like that 🙂 Thanks again to everyone who organized everything, and it was really nice meeting all of you! I’m still trying to figure out the whole soulsling eating glass thing… 🙂 ---

**Wonko** , turn the picture 90 degrees clockwise, and it’s the back of the monkey **pucette** mentioned, sitting on a branch. …as per the glass episode… After **SaxFace** poured/dropped her beer mug all over me, the glass that landed broken all over the place was put on the table. Someone asked if the piece of glass on the table was ice or glass, and in keeping with my spontaneous form for the evening, I took the glass and ate it, chewed it into several pieces, spit some out, swallowed the rest and smiled. 😃 Nothing happened, no scrapes, no bleeding. Note: I had less than a quarter pint of Hieneken, three cokes and a ginger ale that night. Could’ve been the ginger ale, I dunno! ---

**On Lux Fiat** : “I saw his picture and I thought he was cute and then I met him and I thought he was nice, and that’s why I sucked his face like a freak all night.” **On dry-humping Tripler’s leg** : “He started it. I was just along for the ride.” ---

So we three leave the dopefest early and we walk to the C train together. I am catching the downtown C to Brooklyn and Rosebud and Pattycake are taking the uptown train to the moon. We get to the point where we will part ways. I move towards Rosebud with one hand extended. She spreads both hands out. I have a panic attack realizing that she wants to kiss good-bye. (FYI the Sienfeld Kiss hello show is a documentry of my life) I ackwardly manage to move my head to rough proxmity to hers and thankfully do not leave an excessive ammount of saliva. I then wheel around to Pattycake. Now I am 6’1" and Pattycake is about 4’3". I start to bend over to give her the same treatment as Rosebud. After I reach the point of no return I notice that she is extending one hand. She want to shake hands! She does not want a peck on the cheek from this slightly drunk stranger but here I come. I manager to only slightly head butt her and then I fly down the stairs to my train platform and thankfully my train is arriving at that moment and I can flee to Brooklyn. And people wonder why I don’t get out more. ---

I left then with Houseman, and Biggirl. Thought we were the last. And may I say I thought it was a fine night for a brisk walk to Penn Station. Falling on the tracks?? Guess the all volunteer services don’t get the good drinkers anymore… …and congrats to SaxFace for venturing back into the fray Sunday. ---

Nacho4Sara, The Morning After, Part II: On the way into Billdo’s bathroom: “I love baring my ass to New York City.” I wish I’d recorded the part after she got OUT, when she gave us a long and involved accounting of how, where, and why she had bared her ass to the city, and the fact that she - get this - STRIPPED before taking her shower. Stripped NAKED. I think we were all aghast. I was. Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh. ---

And your hat, and your gloves (I think they are yours). Funny thing, I don’t have my free drink. Huh. Wonder what’s up with that? Finally, it was I who yakked in the bar. At some point between buying myself pitchers (hell, they were cheap) and taking the dreaded vodka shot- scratch that. It certainly was not some point between them. I was perfectly fine, if a bit chatty, up until that goddamned vodka shot. The oily taste of evil spread down my gullet, and it was round trip. Thankfully, I got it all into a big garbage can. Next thing I know it’s 6:00 am and I’m in Penn Station. jb ---

[ul] [li]Andygirl makes a good driving companion. Even in snow. Just don’t tell her to pull your hood latch.[/li][li]Do not, under any circumstances, ask Soulsling for any advice on driving or parking in New York.[/li][li]DO blame all infractions of the NYC traffic law on Soulsling. Bat eyes at the cop while doing this.[/li][li]Next Dopefest, we need one bigass table. I don’t like cliques.[/li][li]I agree, it was the boisterious cheer when we hit 42 attendants that told me this evening would be like none other.[/li][li]How the hell did you NOT have a hangover, **Nacho4Sara**? I think we should christen Sara the Partiest Doper.[/li][li]SaxFace makes an excellent Bar Dancing Instructor.[/li][li]I kept the dollar JDT had on his nose.[/li][li]Hamadryad and I were quite pleased that we didn’t mack on any of the doperfellows. I know it made it into Tripler’s notes, but I think our self-restraint is noteworthy here, also. Although Hama DID have that tickle fight…[/li][li]Soulsling really DID eat glass. I witnessed it, and am still not sure whether to be horrified or impressed.[/li][li]A big thank you goes out to Manhattan for the vodka (bottle one…good stuff…) and whoever was responcible for the tequila. I LOVE tequila. You guys just didn’t like it because you didn’t do the shots right. I think I was the only one with salt and lime. Has NO one here done body shots before?[/li][li]And most importantly…SWIDDLES DID NOT HAVE A HANGOVER. And I was really, really drunk. ::bows deeply::. And I got up at like 8:30 or something insane like that. Sorry I missed the brunch, but I had a lovely brunch with my Aunt.[/li][li] I was soooo happy to meet so many new Dopers, and attach human beings to screen names and pictures. And the vet NYC Dopers, it was a pleasure to see you all again.[/li][li]Wait a minute, no one grabbed my ass. I know I wasn’t wearing the fancy pants, but is an exposed belly button ring not enough for you people? [/ul][/li] Yea, I think that’s it. Wonko and Bill, bravos for the planning. Green Bean, you get a gold star for those name tags, as the evening got more intoxicated, I was more and more greatful for them. (what’s my name again?) In retaliation to the rumblings of Jersey Fest, I am considering a Burlingtonfest. All interested are invited. More to follow at a later date. ---

Posting this through the haze of a massive head cold to say thanks to Wonko, Billdo, Green Bean, and all who helped organized the meeting of the masses. As a long-standing member of the terminally shy, I was close to bailing when I saw how many people were coming. But my curiosity won over and I’m glad I came. I wish I could have met more of you. A big thank you for my dinner partners: Alphagene, jb\_farley, manhattan, and Ukulele Ike. A true pleasure. Before I crawl back into the box of kleenex beside me, I just want to thank SaxFace also for making a complete stranger feel so at ease.
