Any DU meetups in early August in CT, Mass or NYC?

[NewJeffCT]

I may have a couple of free weekends coming up in early August and was wondering... I've never met a DUer in person before.

1. nyc

[NewJeffCT]

2. thanks

any date/time? are kids welcome to come along?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. the weekend of the 10th? maybe a brunch wiht kids?

[NewJeffCT]

6. as long

as you don't try to steal my daughter!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

7. i will. lisa will prevent me though. i have been trying to steal the cat in the deli

for months now. lisa wont let me.

[NewJeffCT]

8. anybody else going to be there?

ThomCat or any others from NYC?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

9. if we fix a date we can start pm ing peeps

[NewJeffCT]

10. OK then, August 10

is the date.

Just need to know where and then figure out how to get there.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

27. so are we doing brunch? if so, what kind? dim sum, american, somethign else?

[NewJeffCT]

28. Brunch or lunch is fine with me

some place where they have a decent amount of choices for a somewhat picky 5 year old...

[ThomCat]

17. I'll definitely be there. I wouldn't miss it.

:)

[NewJeffCT]

19. at the local Olive Garden right?

just kidding.

No idea where a good place would be - hopefully, people's eyes won't gloss over if we talk a bit of D&D.

[ThomCat]

21. My ranting and complaining about 4.0 will get their attention.

:P

I'll keep that to a minimum. :)

[NewJeffCT]

22. I have the books

but have barely looked at them. My ongoing 3.5 campaign occupies my free time since I'm the DM.

[ThomCat]

24. 3.5, modified with a few house rules is FAR better than 4.0

If I start a campaign down here I'm definitely sticking to 3.5.

3. Come have drinks with us.

Either after 5:00 on Sat. the 2nd or anytime on the 3rd. We could get a whole little group going (or you could hang with the Finns).

[NewJeffCT]

5. sounds like a good idea

The 2nd might be better because the 3rd is my father's birthday.

[SarahB]

11. Drop either of us a PM if interested.

We're fairly social people and like getting out (and we could probably get more people to come). We'll be on vacation the following week with the kids, so NYC is out, but this might be fun.

12. I would love to do a CT meetup

I have always wanted to go to one but always seem to be busy with work.
I do have off the week of August 10.

I may be going into NYC that week but it may be with my mom so not sure how much time I would be able to hang out with DUers.

Let me know NewJeff if you plan anything.

[NewJeffCT]

13. I will do that

thanks for the response.

[NewEnglandGirl]

34. If it is after mid August

and in CT please let me know too. If I could make it I would. That is if it would be ok for a newbie to attend. :)

[ThomCat]

18. Bring your mom!

It'll be a family friendsly meetup. :)

I think LionessPriyanka will agree that one way or another we need to drag your ass to a meetup and give you some hugs. :P

[bigwillq]

25. My mom probably wouldn't mind

if we stopped by the meet-up for a bit. She's a very cool, and very nice mommy! :)

:hug:

[MissMillie]

26. I could be in on that,

but I'm out of town 7/30 through 8/5

I'm only a few miles from the CT border, and I'd love to meet you folks.

[NewJeffCT]

30. Sorry

Looks like that first weekend is pretty much set - SarahBelle & I have had several near-misses over the years.

[SarahB]

33. And yet another near miss...

:(

[NewJeffCT]

35. hopefully

we can celebrate a Democratic sweep in November

[sniffa]

14. Haven't had a big one here in forever

:bounce:

[NewJeffCT]

20. I think my schedule is now full those weekends

maybe we can have one to celebrate Obama's win in November?

[Chan790]

15. I'm game...

I don't drive though. I might be able to do NYC on the 10th...I can take the train down. yay! :party:

Now watch, I'll get scheduled a double (8 hours) for that very day after having 13 hours this week and 12 next week.

[NewJeffCT]

16. well, hopefully not

about getting scheduled for a double I mean.

[ThomCat]

23. I hope you can make it.

:)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. My dear NewJeffCT!

I've been thinking of a trip east, and I'd love to be in on yours!

Keep me informed, OK?

I would love to be there too!

:hi:

[NewJeffCT]

31. wow, if CaliforniaPeggy is going to be there

it'll really be a big party.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

32. Awwwwww...

Thank you, sweetie...

:hug:

[NewJeffCT]

36. you're welcome

It looks like August 10 is probably the date.
