aberkok in NY 11/14 - 11/17
 

Hi New Yorkers. I'm visiting some friends in a few weeks and it'd be great to meet any TFP New Yorkers I could. I'll be arriving sometime on Tuesday Nov.14 and leaving later on Friday Nov.17, so a lunch date or an evening would be fun. Let's make it happen!! I can teach you about living in log cabins and fighting bears!!

How late are you in town on Friday 11/17? Otherwise, I have to make it a lunch thing... But I totally want to meet you!!

How tempting it is to call in sick and come meet you for lunch. I would love to see you again. I will have think about this.

And then I could meet YOU too! Muahahahahaa...

I'll be leaving not too late on the Friday. Definitely by around 8p.m.

So far it's looking like a lunch thing... :)

Ok, how about you all plan the day and the time and then I can see if it is possible for me to join you. I have some ideas in my head, depending on the day and time. and JustJess, I'd love to meet you too!

I have lots of questions, as I am not a city girl at all. I'd have to take the train into Penn Station. That would be when the panic sets in and I have to find where you are meeting.

I'd much rather learn about moose.

Can you teach me about moose?

Aw man, leaving Friday night? I believe ktspktsp and I will be in NYC that weekend, since a cousin of his is in town... but I have no idea when we'll be there, or where we're staying, etc etc... most likely arrive late on Friday night or early Saturday morning. :( I don't suppose you're going through Pennsylvania on your way, are ya? :) We had so much fun meeting you at Tec's place...

When you say New York .. don't get me all excited until I see you meant New York, The City. Boo. I'm gonna be out on this one, gotta save my money :(

I'll be there, wherever there is. Can we eat ribs?

Ribs sounds good. I've been exercising so I can afford the extra input. So why don't we say Friday lunch?

I know next to nothing about New York except that I'm staying in Brooklyn with my friend. Is there somewhere around there we can go to eat ribs?

Hey, definately post where and when you're going to be going out. I'd love to meet some fellow TFPers especially in the NYC area.

I have school on Friday during lunch time. In fact, Wednesday is the only weekday I am available before 5:30pm (6:30 if its in brooklyn)

How does Wednesday sound to people? So far we have potential interest from:

JustJess
Ubertuber
MuadDib

and maybe:

Sportswidow
Halx

How is Wednesday as opposed to Friday?

Wednesday I am open all day, so I'm a definite if thats the case.

I've got a training that day. If I can make it, I will. If not, maybe we can get a drink later in the week.

I just bought my plane ticket and it looks like I'll be around Friday evening as well, and leaving before sunrise Saturday morning.

if we could do this Friday night, it would be cool

I am available Wednesday for lunchin', but I can't go too far from work. :( Friday, Friday.... lemme do some checkin' around. I might be, I might not be. Depends on OTHER out of town guests!

Okay, I'm clear for Friday, after 10p! (I volunteer at the ER on Fridays). Why don't we meet up near Union Square, since it's easy to get to from Brooklyn? I'll PM you my phone number etc... you are checking on this thread, ain'tcha?
:)

I am still undecided and unsure if I can come. Once you have the date, time and place finalized, let me know and then I can take it from there.

I'll be checkin' this thread up 'til I see you guys...as long as they have internet in N.Y.... they do have it, right? :D

So yeah... let's do it Friday night. So far it's leaning towards that it seems. And as for Union Square...I'll just have to take your word for it Jess, since I don't know anything.

So the latest narrowing down of this meet-up:

Friday, November 17th, 10:00p.m. - Union Square

I am afraid I will have to decline this one. That is too late for me to be traveling into the city, probably alone. :( I am sure we will meet again soon.

Sorry Sportswidow :( I want to see you too. Things are different in my life now so I plan on making at least 2 trips south of the border in 2007. We will make it happen then.

Sportswidow - you can come earlier if you want! I just can't do much before 10p, because I'm laaaaaame.

Ubertuber suggested a BBQ place at 23rd St/10th Ave.

So on the list to come:
Halx
JustJess
Ubertuber
Cynthetiq
? Sportswidow ?

Anyone else??? Come and enjoy our mini-meet! Wheeee!

RUB - 23rd and 7th

RUB? That sounds more than a little sexual...

You guys must really like your ribs.

You clearly haven't met ubertuber yet. The man is passionate about his BBQ.

I forgot to write down MuadDib too! I hope you'll make it as well!

Will anyone be there before 10pm? I don't know. As much as I want/need to get out...... I am still up in the air.

I can't make it much sooner than 10p.m. ...sorry Sportswidow. I ended up making some other plans in the time leading up to it.

I will see everyone else there tonight!!

I will be there tonight! 10pm. And if you guys want, you can come with me to a really bad concert afterwards.

Maybe next time then. I hope you all have a great time. At least the rain and the wind have stopped. Have a beer for me!
