SPX ROLL CALL!

Oct 05, 2007 01:06

*Jumps up* COLLEEN! PRESENT! or maybe it should be COLLEEN! FUTURE! or perhaps COLLEEN! SMELLS LIKE CRABS!

Who's going to be there? We shall arm-wrestle! Like friends do! I'll even bring socks for you to wear on your arms. Arms are for socks! Eerr...about the arm wrestling. It's just a fall back greeting style. I would normally offer my usual ( Read more... )

Where is this, and when? I may be taking a trip upstate later this month, but didn't want to drive alone.

It's the 12th and 13th in Maryland, but I am always up for road trips! Especially ones upstate. As much as I try to deny my roots upstate NY is pretty damn cool. Let me know when you are going to take one!

Most likely, I'm going to go Sunday, October 21, to somewhere in Dutchess County (Rhinebeck?) -- barring bad weather or car trouble. About 2 hours north of NYC. They are having a festival somewhere that involves launching pumpkins on a catapult, and I want to take a road trip and see all the foliage anyway. I need to find out the exact details.

The little I've seen of upstate, I've loved. I really want to explore that area, but it's a long way to go by myself in a 12 year old car.

I'm pretty sure I'm free then! I am all about pumpkins and catapults! If I had the two normally in my life, I think I would be a much happier person!

We're leaving Thursday morning-ish (probably 11 or noon-ish but no later than that) if you want to catch a ride with me and Zane.

colleenaf October 6 2007, 14:43:16 UTC

That would be awesome! I'd totally love to trek down there with you guys if you have the room and don't mind a tag along who tends to whistle-snore through her left nostril if she falls asleep! Thursday morn at 11 is cool with me!

Looks like Katie is offering to throw Robin in a trunk (see other comments) so if you guys decide you'd like to hear stories of what a ride to Bethesda is like in a trunk from Robin I can always steal a ride with them!

colleenaf October 6 2007, 14:45:32 UTC

Also! Since you guys are helping me out a HUGE amount I can totally meet you at your place so you won't have to worry about treking to the unknown regions of greenpoint. let me know!

lizbaillie October 6 2007, 16:06:48 UTC

No problem, come by my house around 11 or 11:30 on Thursday morning and we will drive down together! You have a place to stay on Thursday night, right?

I'll email you my address and directions.

Ooooh we can play that really fun popular kid's car game "LET'S PRETEND YOU ARE BEING KIDNAPPED!" I'm curious to see if Robin could flag down another car by breaking his hand out through the taillight and waving...

I am thinking of brining a pair of pants, a pair of socks, a pair of glasses, and other things that in pairs, perhaps even shoes and eyeballs.

I'm not brining an insane amount, but I do have a small suitcase (like carryon size) I'm planning on packing with shirts and stuff.

I think I'm gonna take Liz and Zane up on their offer for a Thursday ride since I already have a hotel room for Thursday night and Liz and Zane are cooler than sliced bread covered in Nutella.

I will be at SPX on Saturday, be-kilted and tall.

May I request a con sketch for my infamous collection of con sketches of myself by various 'artists'?

mckenzee October 6 2007, 02:42:27 UTC

I forgot! I will have a present for you also.

colleenaf October 6 2007, 14:28:30 UTC

Yay!

Though you should know that if it's anything short of a pony, I am very likely to cry.

Unless it's one of those short ponies, you know the weird mini-horses that are about four feet tall...in which case I am totally declaring you BFF for life!

colleenaf October 6 2007, 14:31:58 UTC

So awesome! Do you wear those socks with tassles? If not I'll have to bring a pair for you (I think I still have mine from girlscouts... not as cool but close!)

I promise you a sketch!

Too much...:)

Glad my beard and her butter could help make you laugh!

Getting ready for SPX made me think of all the comics I miss...your silly slice-o-life photocomic very high in the rankings.
