Ok - here’s the deal. I have missed every single frickin’ one of these things and I want to do it, baby! Birmingham seems to be a pretty central place for people in the area. I don’t want fancy dinner or expensive stuff, just going out to the clubs or a bar would be fine.
Who’s with me?
I can’t hear you!! Who’s with me???
I get on the boards at work and don’t always have access over the weekend so take the weekend to think it over and maybe we can cook something up. If this thread drops we can all switch to email - send to bean@imabadlittlegirl.com
Let’s plan for the end of March/beginning of April.
Yay!

I’m game. I somehow manage to miss them every single time, too. May I suggest the weekend of April 3-4? It’s around the suggested time frame and well after Nocturne’s birthday.
Alrighty then! I’ve voting for Saturday April 3rd. Anyone with any ideas please contribute - otherwise we’ll end up in Southside drinking at somewhere like Dave’s until we decide what to do.
So, do we call each other by our screen names or what? That’s how I know you guys.
Aries28, if another weekend would be better due to child restraints. I understand those. I have an available sitter for weekends so it wouldn’t be a problem for me.
Why not meet somewhere for dinner first, so that any under 21 Dopers are able to join us? We could eat together, then anyone who wants to go clubbing could do so. There are plenty of good restaurants in Bham, and I’m sure Tuscaloosa has them as well. And I think it’s an established fact that we Dopers love to eat (probably almost as much as we love to drink!).
Sounds good - April 3 it is. Let’s eat in Southside and then we can go out. Any suggestions? The Mill, Surin West, 11th Ave. (not so keen on this one but it does have a back room) or Mellow Mushroom for really casual. Ther are nicer ones but I’m guessing we’re not a group of Rockerfellers so I’m not even suggesting Bottega.
Sounds great. Did I hear a few months ago that The Mill was closing, though? Maybe I dreamed it, but we might want to check. I like Surin West (that’s Thai food, for those who don’t know) but if ya’ll think of someplace better I’m all for it. Mellow Mushroom is good too, but might be a little crowded for a Dopefest.
