Where's the NYC MegaDopefest enthusiasm thread? Oh, wait, here it is.

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

We’re three weeks away, and Billdo’s last NYC Megadopefest thread is buried…

Where’s the enthusiasm? Where’s the love? Where’s the giddy pre-Dopefest flirting? I can’t remember exactly, but last year, three weeks from the 'fest, I seem to recall a pretty active thread.

For my part, I’m driving down with my brilliant writing partner, CuriousCanuck, his non-Doper girlfriend, and LaurAnge (I think). Ask CC and I about our fantastic, offbeat musical, TRASH!. Far better than “Urinetown”. :wink:

I’ll be spending the next couple of weeks deciding what to wear, polishing my tiara, and getting rid of that bit of holiday fatness.

OK, enthuse. Flirt. Ask me about the musical. I wanna get excited! I’m looking forward to seeing a lot of you again, and meeting everyone who wasn’t there last year. :slight_smile:

I also encourage male attendees to wear kilts.

… I have no kilt, and I must scream.

However, I will be available to discuss and/or repair any computer issues anyone has.

What’re we doing again?

Hooray! I can finally make it to a NYC Mega-Dopefest! If I remember right, I’m hitching a ride with Eonwe Friday evening.

Kilt? No kilt. But I do have a fedora, and a really cool leather coat (like the one Spike wore in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.) So I’ll be wearing those, and I don’t know what else. And I’m 21 at last, so I can go to the bars.

So how you doin’?

5

Euty… may I still kiss your hand?

6

Of course. But since I’m not a mod anymore … let’s face it. The thrill is gone. :smiley:

7

Still.

scott. Bubbie.

Here I was all set to go on about how much I was looking forward to NYC (just got my plane ticket today, in fact), because I haven’t seen Euty since September and all that. Then I come in to this thread and find this? You and my SO hitting on each other?

All I can say is…sweet mother of fuck, don’t let me forget to replace the batteries in my camera. I am SO there. :smiley:

9

Love.

10

Monosyllabicism will get you nowhere.

11

Heh. I’m glad you reminded me. :slight_smile:

12

Don’t forget, Eonwe, you’re my backup in case CC bails…

13

No problem… in fact, if you need a ride, it looks like I’ll be driving through Montreal to get there anyway.

14

That’s a tad out of the way, Eonwe… to pick up people? Anyway, I put CC through the wringer on Boxing Day about not bailing. :wink:

Euty: Love me.

15

I think things will pick up, once the holidays are past.

16

Yeah yeah, I’m not bailing.

Eonwe: we could go caravan style. Two cars travelling together might be more fun. As long as your car doesnt have people that like to stop every 30 minutes :slight_smile:

17

We’ve been talking about it quite a bit, actually. We were lucky to meet with some folks last week in the city for dinner so we could really start geekin’ out.

Once again we’ve been fortunate in finding a place to stay for the weekend, and I can’t wait to see y’all again.

Especially slackers like Persephone who can’t take the time to visit more often.

:wink:

Just to double check, this thing is the 9th through the 12th of January? I could go look for that other thread, but I try not to tax the server too much.

19

And by 9th through the 12th, I mean the 16th through 19th…I got Martin Luther King, Jr. day mixed up with my first day of classes.

Thanks for the enthusiasm, scott and the gang. I’m looking forward to a build-up as we get closer to this thing.

In the meantime, I’ve started a post when and if you’re coming thread. I’d appreciate it all of you could check in there so we can keep track of the details in one place. Thanks.

See you in a few weeks.
