The Worlds Biggest Lashbear Meet !! April 1, 2007
 

Multi-Board, Multi-Country, Multi-user, Multi-Ride, Multi-Action, Multi-Excitement !!!

Sunday April 1, 2007 (NO, it's not an April Fool Joke - I WILL be there. :p )

Itinerary still to be revealed, but there will be Breakfast somewhere, then rides and fun, then the Noon Hub Meet, then more fun, then Drinkies and Dinner somewhere... Then more rides and stuff. Then who knows what ???

Please join us !! I want this to be Bigger than Ben Him (or Ben Hur)

-Rob.

*note* ...those who do not attend will be tracked down and forced to eat Vegemite thickly spread on toast.

I'll be there with Leopard Spots and safety pins on!

I'll think about

How could anyone say no??

Isn't vegemite listed as a hazardous material?

Not any more, thank goodness !

I absolutely will be there, I'd love to meet the guy that got me hooked on Tim Tams while I was over 6,000 miles from home and ironically not anywhere near his native country.

I could always lie, it will be April Fools. :)

only to midday.....

I put it on the calendar

A kilt-optional meet! You know I'd be there if I could, baby.

Helen, it's closer than going to his house! ;)

I can't plan that far ahead the way my life is, but I'm penciling it in!

Lash, I'm not going to be there until the 4th! Will you still be in Anaheim? I will be so bummed if I don't get to meet up with you in real life, mister!!!!

I've tasted Vegemite. :eek: I'll be there!

I think this calls for being there at opening (or at whatever time Mr. Bear will be there).

Wow! The world's biggest Lashbear! I'm so there.
:D

We're in! :)

I just noticed that was the title when scrolling down the list! :D

I'm picturing a 4 story tall Lashbear holding an ax!! :eek:

wearing a kilt...:eek:

Ah !! I went to the front page and now I know what you mean.

Well, not meaning to brag, but.......


(and I AM trying to get the kilt finished by March. :evil: )

I'll be there right until the 7th (inclusive) - gotta love those 14-day Aussie park hoppers. :snap:

Is that special park media- the "Aussie Park Hopper"?

I hope to meet you to Rob!!

Yes, there's a 14 day pass available pre-purchase for Aussies (we can't get it once we're over there, however.)

Paul Lashbear Bunyan and his blue ox Toto.
:D

So, if Lashbear is four stories tall and wearing a kilt, wouldn't we be able to walk underneath to verify that he is the "biggest"?

I'm thinking we wouldn't have to walk too far before we bumped our heads on something...
:D

Lashbear: the human tripod.

"Gifted, you say?" - Madeline Kahn as Empress Nympho in History of the World, Part I

Love her.

Yaaay! I would be very sad if I missed The Bear. Seriously, I would really be unhappy, and unhappy and DL just don't go well together, you know.;):D

Unhappy and DL go together like flatulence and It's A Small World... no wait, that isn't right.

Lol!!!!

Poor kid. At least she's still at that age where she is impressed by her 'powers'.

Is that from experience, Matt? :D

I heard about the new "IASM Tunnel Of Terror" ride. :D

Painfully, it is from experience for many of us. Somewhere there is a photo.

:eek:

I wanna see the photo!!
:)

Borneio looked like he suspected Darkbeer, who was alternating between laughter and asphyxiation.

so... who dunnit ?

Tori is the suspect, but she swears now that she didn't do it, and I think she would own up to it if she did. Plus, her 'episodes' don't generally smell like dead rat, and whatever stunk the place up was really wicked.

Oh, I thought she HAD owned up to it.

And ya; that smell was nasty. It was a case of it being SO bad, the only thing one could do was laugh.

Oh, and if we are trying to set the record for the World's Biggest Lashbear Meet: what is the record we have to beat?

I think the last meet consisted of Szcerbiack (sp?) and myself

Yep - that was it ! :D ... of course, I probably wandered past the rest of you some time during that week.....

I'm having a T-shirt with "Lashbear" boldy printed on the front of it made. :cheers:

I'll be near the OTHER U.S. hub on that day. :(

Cool Picture! Now, is there one of the "ISM Tunnel of Terror"? ;)

I have decided the menu for the LashSwank party at the Hojo's on the evening of April 1 (or 31st of March... still not sure yet)

LashSwank Menu:

Beverage:
Ginger Martinis.:cheers:

Just like a Martini, only spicier.



Nibbles:


Just like a CornDog, only Chocolate Chippier.... :rolleyes:

Remind me to eat before the party :eek:

:eek:

Are those for real? Are they taking the sweet/salty to another level?

In the South {or so I've been told when I put jelly/jam on my sausage...} it is common. Or, rather, perhaps, it is not common here? Cause people give me a lot of :eek: when I do it.

I'm still thinking of the Triple Espresso show here in the gaslamp for your trip to San Diego. Anyone see it? I found it hilarious but I am a knucklehead.

That sounds like fun !

I'll have to look it up ! :D

http://www.gaslamp.org/prof-tripleespresso.php

Here is a link, with a link inside of it.

Hmm. I just went and found that this is their last season. Don't know if it will still be running....

It says there are group discounts as well as, I believe, AAA discounts.

I looked but didn't see a dinner package for San Diego.

I had a chocolate chip bagel for breakfast this morning but it seemed to be lacking in something. Was it sausage?:eek:

(Maybe it should have been deep-fried?)

In the words of the Jackson 5 (I think), I'll be there!

No, it was missing bacon ;)

No bacon. Sausage.

It turns out their last weekend is the 14/15th April, Just when our week there ends - it might be nice for all of us to go on Sat 15th for a final night swanking !! :cheers:

Bacon-pooper! ;)

So, have we ever established if he IS the World's Biggest Lashbear?

That's what is meet is for.....

Voting will take place later in the evening. :D

Boy !! That conjours up some vivid images I won't forget in a hurry...... :eek:

Let me know....it can be a fun night!

I guess no one else has seen this? I thought for sure someone must have.

I would only wonder if we might have to square it away in case the closing weekend might sell out quickly? I don't have a clue...

I've read about it but never been. Closing weekend tickets might sell out quickly.

That is what I was thinking...

I will do a bit of research and see what times are for those dates. I don't remember the place as being very big.

I know. It was like "Party-pooper", but after I wrote it I said to myself "Jeesh, that just doesn't look right!"

Like Bacon nuggets. Just not right I tell ya!

Why, are we out of trivia questions?

Well. I have put in a call to group sale tickets for Triple Espresso. I'll see what kind of info they give. One thing I did pick up, you get group rate over 12 tickets.

When I get more info {and this being for their final performance date} I will post it and see what type of interest it generates.

Okay, this is my e-mail response:

"Thank you for your phone call. Groups of 12 or more receive a $5 discount off of each ticket for all performances except Saturday at 8:00 pm. Our producers in Minneapolis haven’t announced an official closing date yet for our San Diego show. We are currently selling through April 15th but they may extend. At this point there is room for a group of 20 on Sunday April 15th at 3:00 pm. The group rate would be $29.50 per person. In order to qualify for the group rate you would need to purchase all 20 tickets with one credit card or check. We can not do multiple transactions as a group. Since we are over two months away from the performance you can put 20 tickets on hold with a $100 deposit. We would need the final count and payment of the balance by March 26th. Once the balance is paid it is a final sale, we can not take any tickets away from the group but we can add them as long as there is room at the discounted price."

Okay, great, $5. discount. But, with my AAA card I can save $7. I don't know how many tickets I can purchase but ya know, it is less?

i dont know where "there" is.. but i will be there..

20 people might be a wee bit hard to get unless we recruit off the street ;)

I'll what the stoat wants to do when he gets home :)

Well, I don't think we need to go with their deal. We get better with AAA!!!

Let me know.

I was wondering if they changed it to being assigned seating. Last time we went it wasn't. That makes a difference.

Alcoholics Anonymous Association ? :D

LOL Might need one after a weekend at the Gaslamp...;)

Oh baby - I can't wait !!!!

(I'm busting with excitement - less than 5 weeks to go til I leave ! )

I can't even imagine how excited you are! You are going to be having a real vacation! Not just a jaunt over the pond, so to speak.

I am excited, personally, about the possibility of meeting you.

Also, I am getting excited about the fact in March {and this is February!!!} that we are going to Yosemite!!! And that is a 3 night trip. I can't imagine how excited you are about a trip your length.

Umm. Do you have a house sitter? Not that I am volunteering but I am thinking about what I have to do for our little trip.

You must have a lot to work out.

are you like..not from around here or something?

Umm..are you asking me or thecorndogwalker?

I believe he's talking to Lash, but hopefully jokingly.

A Few Good Men!!!!!!!!!

No I'm local dude !

...Im in the southern southern southern OC :D

So, is there an entire LashEntities' Stateside Itinerary somewhere that I missed? If not ... for curiosity's sake, can we get one?

I'm just working on one on Myspace now, but it'll l\]take another night to finish.

Be upsoon.

Going to tired, I'm, really bed now. Midnight here.

Oyasumi Nasai.

Um, the link does nothing.



(other than take you to a private myspace page. ahem.)

Ahem, sign up on MySpace iSm. ;)

How handy- I'll be there. :)

Airfare to be bought within the next 2 weeks Yip yip!:D

Do you think I'd let any old riff-raff read my trip calendar ? :eek:

First you need to be my fwiend. :D

Make an account (you don't have to add any content to do this) and then get me to add you as a friend.

Hugs to Mr ISM.

I'm too old for myspace. Sorry.

No, you're only to old to hit on 18 y/o on MySpace ;)

Then you are too old for the lashbear meet. :p:evil:

Helloooooo... Fourty-something here ! :blush:

...Besides, I'm sure there's an "old farts" category somewhere there.

All the cool kids have MySpace:
http://www.myspace.com/19740504

€ - You're supposed to list your religion as "Atheist..... Thank God."

:p

I just signed into MySpace for the first time in forever. I created an account and did nothing with it. It's under my old email address, and to change the email address I have to click the confirmation link...that was sent to the old email address which doesn't exist anymore :rolleyes:

Ya just gotta love logic like that, don't you ?

Well, it's not only that the target demographic at myspace is young even by my rather geppettophile standards ... but it's also that I'm a perfectionist who will want a reaaaallly cool myspace page - - that I have no time to create any time soon.

I haven't really been tempted to do the MySpace thing- I seldom update LJ, so I think it would be a waste of time. Might do it just out of curiousity to see Lash's itinerary, but I'd never use it.

That's what editors are for. Perfect page in 5 minutes or less. :evil:

The one thing I do think My Space is useful for is tracking bands/music you like. Often tour schedules, or one off appearances are announced here - also with the attached music files, it's a good way to sample some music in advance of some event like Coachella.

I suppose Lashbear used another nice feature I never use - the shared calendar.

I still prefer blogging on Live Journal though

omg, I made exactly two entries in my livejournal back in December ... and haven't updated it since.



I'm internetfully lame.

I have a MS page and I log in about once a month - mainly to visit the sites of bands I am interested in. That's about it.

Ah, your talents still remain well represented in cyberspace;)

Apparently now I have to go log in to approve some dorky friend named "Greg". Sheesh! The SLIME on this place!

iSm you finally have a livejournal ?

yeah, SuPeR K! talked me into it, but I really haven't kept up with it.




So now, of course, I'll post something tomorrow.






And then will forget about it for two more months.

Can I see ? :D

hehe

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

Eww. No thanks I've seen YOURS.

Sheesh, guys. Get a room!

Kevy never showed ME his. :(

WOW !!!! Post 1111. Hehehehehehehe

Um, you know anyone can see mine. (That was part of the problem, wasn't it?) ;)


It's zlick @ livejournal or something completely simple like that.




.

I made a MS page to keep in touch with my cousins in Florida, because it's what they use. And to keep up with a classmate's baby news. There's no real content on my page. My LJ page has gobs of content, but nothing particularly useful or interesting. Which is fine, since I have few "friends" on either account.

Heheh, I don't have any "friends" on my live journal account. I was going to wait till I had accumulated at least a handful of entries before I formally invited anyone to "be my friend."

But I was talked into doing it because, as an adjunct to this right here at the LoT, it's a way to communicate deeper or at least more intricate things to your friends, things not likely to come up in casual conversation, so that they can have more of a peak into your life ... and, if they've got an LJ, a peak for you into theirs.

I rather like the idea, and I like writing. But, as I expected, I'm lazy about it.

Don't worry, most of us are equally lazy about it.

All this has prompted me to go and add friends on my MySpace account. Maybe I'll even add some, gasp, profile info.

Not anymore.....;)

I wanna go to Midnight Insanity!! :(

:p

Soo.... who haven't I "friended" on MySpace yet? Tell me your account names !! Pleeease ? :cheers:

um, link to mine in a post above. Ooooh, I made two friends already!


And all the profile information I originally wrote got lost when I tried to post it. It'll be a loooong time before I get back around to that, or to making the page look cool and what not. As you can tell from how often I change my avatar ... I'm all about content - - and while I love aesthetics, it's much lower on my priority list.

YEAST extract? I somehow thought vegetables were involved somehow.

Maybe they meant that vegetables might be involved.

Voluptuously Extremely Good, Excellent Meaty Individually Tasty Extract

Folks, a word of advice. Just smile and take the vegemite. It could be worse...he could bring....

So? How'd the meet go? Did you close the park?

Ugh, yes (typed, for some ungodly reason, at 7:45 the next morning. Frellling job. Grrrrrr.)

Peet's Coffee, then?

:) Lemme just say it was one of the finest meets (er, meats) ever. You never know when one of these is going to be merely loads of fun, or an event for ages ... and of course, I wanted the Lashmeet to be one for the ages (as I'm sure the Lashmeat is).

This exceeded all my expectations. The kind folks at Mice Chat always provide a fun crowd for the noon meet. And when you start with 60 people ... even the constant fall-off which happens from that moment on - - leaves 20 people to close the park 12 hours later!

The Lashes were made Honorary Citizens of Disneyland in a neat ceremony at Walt's statue, followed by a huge group photo in front of the Castle (see if you can find Lashbear hidden demurrerly in the crowd).

:cheers: A massive lunch at Plaza Inn followed, and a record-breaking fast pass run by Cadaverous Pallor and me (33 fastpasses for Indy).

Another record was shattered when 41 of us raided Pirates of the Caribbean ... with enough "front-loaders" to sink two boats. (Actually, we didn't e-stop the ride ... but tsunami-waves, wench-drenchings, bottoming-out flume drops, and walls of water were the order of the day .... was that Not Afraid singing "The Morning After" in the second row??)


The group then circumnavigated the Park aboard the recently-reopened Disneyland Railroad ... the Lashes in high style, esconsced inside the Lilly Belle for the journey. Left-over 50th Celebrations Parade of Dreams and the Steve Martin movie were next, followed by an odd flag-retreat ceremony at 4pm while the sun was near its apex in the sky.


We did manage to sink a boat on small world ... heheh, the craft crammed with 15 barely made it into the buliding before grinding to a halt ... and castmembers didn't notice until boats had backed up all the way to the loading dock! Five members were selected "at random" to disembark and take the Walk of Shame past all the stranded guests, who undoubtedly were muttering, "so those are the fat people who got us stuck here in the hot sun for 10 minutes!"


OMG, SCREAMING rides on Indy, the Matterhorn (you could hear CoasterMatt banshee-wailing throughout the entire mountain) and two on Big Thunder ... where the Lashes were introduced to The Goat Trick, and I found out other people besides me were really terrororized in the Longjohns Tunnel of Death. TeeHee, I'm still laughing at Gemini Cricket's Indian yell at the end of Ride 1.


A lovely dinner at Cafe Orleans (much vegemite was consumed, to Lashbear's delight). A pleasant Haunted Mansion ride, a trip to Hell with Mr. Toad, Remember fireworks in sensurround near Dumbo, and a rare and moody cruise aboard the Columbia to inspect all the Pirates Lair construction by the full moon light.

A post-pyro Peter Pan flight brought our silly switchback tradition of high-fives to a stunning level of hilarity and madcap fun that likely will never be topped. Being among the first dozen people on a re-opened Pan meant dashing through the switchbacks at high speed ... the queue turns so tight at points that everyone was High-Fiving on both sides at once! Even the CMs got into the act, as the operator High-Fived the inboard passenger on every departing Pirate Ship. Sailing into the Darling's bedroom, I HighFived a random stranger in the queue ... and Nephy & €uro topped it all by HighFiving each other from crossing Pirate Ships high above Neverland!

:snap: :snap: :snap:


Those are some of the highlights I can remember. It was great to have so many Disney friends come out of the woodwork for this one. A wonderful time was had by all, and I believe it will live for the Lash Pair as the great day that fulfilled its promise.



My thanks to everyone who attended, and to all those folks who've put out the welcome wagon for the Lashes ever since they arrived in California. Hahaha, I don't think they've spent a day without guests until today ... which I understand they will be spending around the pool with their feet up.



BTW, they're in town for the rest of the week, folks. More fun is in store! :D





.

That is the best report EVAH!!!!!!!! Seriously Steve, I'm soooo thrilled that the boys had such a wonderful turn out for the meet/meat! They are both such sweethearts ...I'm glad that we got to be a part of their holiday earlier in the week :D!

:iSm:
Thanks for the great report!

Ok now I'm really bummed that I could only stop and say hi for a short while in the hub :(

Oh well sounds like everyone had an amazing time.

Wow! Great report iSm, as always! Great picture as well, Katiesue!:snap:

Oh look he got his CROC's!!!!!! I'm so happy for him!

Where's Lashbear? I can't find him in that photo :D

We showed up right after the photo, had to depart at 4pm, drove up to LA for a family Passover Seder, then drove back down to catch the revelers as they jumped breathlessly off of Peter Pan. Closed the park. We'll have to drive back up to LA tonight for more family stuff (and back again), but it was so worth it to make that drive back down.

:iSm: hit many highlights. There were far too many to list. Jungle Cruise with a skipper with impeccable timing. A beekeeper climbing the mast on the Columbia. A fastpass run involving 33 passes. After the fireworks, the park cleared out and we had the place to ourselves. Don't you just love when there's zero line for the Mansion and you can see the exterior without the clutter of crowding?

We did miss a bunch of the fun but the fun we did have was spectacular indeed. I always know it's been a good day when I feel like singing "Second Star to the Right" as we move towards the exit. I feel so lucky to have each and every one of my wonderful friends in my life.

:tiki:

Truly one of the best times at Disneyland ever. I laughed more this weekend that in the whole last year. It was a grand pleasure meating the Lash'es and wish I lived a bit closer in order to hang out this week. :( Oh well. Thanks to MickeyLumbo for the "Ariel" meet. Sadly I didn't get her number... But the "try" was too fun.

None stop amazing fun from the first second to the last!

Thanks everyone!!!!!

I saw some familiar faces in this thread on MC, especially this one.

I saw many familiar faces, as well. It's weird because so many of them I've not met yet IRL. Looks like a great time was had by all and Lash would appear to have been right, biggest meet ever!

Heh, can't help but crosspost this image.

Hmmm You say you're crossposting an image and all I see is a little white dot.

???

Now I'm really beginning to wonder about all the other little white dots.

Sounds like your images are being blocked somehow. Try quoting the message, copy the URL for the picture and posting into the address bar of your browser (if you want to see the pictures).

Although I am sure that smarter people than me (which is most everyone) will tell you the browser setting you need to adjust to get pictures.

Yep, that's what I thought. Damn DOD servers blocking me from viewing pics when I should be working. How dare they?

I'll check em out at home.

Sounds like it was a blast. I'm really sorry now that I couldn't make it. :(

We could have used your help when we were on board the Columbia singing "Blow the man........down" :D

I managed to take a few pics yesterday:

Here's the Lash Pair preparing for their new career as the Australian spokes models for Poky's latest flavor - Vegemite!


Coaster Matt Denying all responsibility


ISM shocked to hear the truth about Nephy's involvement with the Clinton Administration


Could a face like this really be all that evil?


Kevy Baby excited to be on the queue for Pirates


The Happy Haunts, less excited to be on the queue for Pirates


Coaster Matt excited to be sinking some boats


With the help of his friends - Ariel Notices Borneo


And she offers him her Dinglehopper


A triumphant Borneo!


The Incredible Mr. Cricket about to take on the icy slopes of the Matterhorn


And Not Afraid - very happy to be riding behind Coaster Matt

Dinglehopper, not Doodlehopper. ;)

Fixed

That's the biggest box of Pocky I've ever seen!

It looks like a great time was had by all, sorry I don't live closer.

Wish I would have made it. Thanks for sharing the photos :)

You know, I'm so friggin exhausted today I'm more zombi that human - but I'm a zombie with a big smile on my face. I'm going to try to get some rest because, WB and crew arrive tomorrow and there be more fun in the works.

BONUS PIC
 

ISM & NA Conspire once again to lead the trrops to Pirates

OK. This is funny. Please view as a slide show (click on the work "other" - my title is too big and I'm too lazy to change it.


THE TALE OF LASHBEAR AND THE CORNDOG.

Should I be considering botox? ;)

NO!! Your boobs are just fine !

I swore she was asking me... is it this big?
:blush:

I'm so bummed I missed it. I was planning to make it, but had car trouble. My radiator fan quit and the car overheated. :evil:

I can't go on most rides due to my surgery, but I would have hung out......

for a while. :D

At least I got to meat the Lashes breifly at DtD! Thanks for the Vegimite again Rob! I will be trying it in the morning on toast with avacado! :snap:

It was a great honor to meet you Lashbear....have a great time here in the US and have a safe trip home!

There's always our last day in LA - Next Saturday.... :D

am i the only one that was back this morning for rope drop?


or was that drop the soap:confused: mornings are fuzzy.

I was at my place of employment for park opening this morning.

I had SO much fun yesterday; and amazingly my voice is entirely intact today! Not a bit of scratchiness or squeakiness. I wish I had an audio recording of the Matterhorn ride to end the night...

you so totally rock!:snap:

I have it permanently etched on my brain. ;) THANK GOD I was sitting behind you.

Well, for such a short visit, I had a blast. :) Sorry to those that I missed seeing some of you. Crazy day.

Strike your colors you brazen wench! No need to expose your superstructure!

Scrooge, you're not alone. I see my pic but I don't see Mr. Meinke's. I'll hunt down the album later.

I miss the Lash's already...you guys really are one of us. :)

NA: "Wait, you're too short. I'll translate."

Visible GD mojo

Um, no, that was not a Ghoulish caption .... that is actually what she said.

You all have a great sense of humor.

No, seriously, that is what she said. And they worked well together at it. :snap:

This was my first official 'meet at the hub @ noon' meet and it was quite a doozy! I think we took over the hub, much to the photographers placed theres' dismay. It was cool that they helped to arrange the big photo. {did anyone look at the official one?}

I didn't close down the park {almost returned after dinner but hadn't stamped my hand} but I had so much fun the time I did spend with everyone.

I tell ya, everyone is nice. It was nice to meet so many people and to re-meet so many others.

I really did trip out when sitting there at lunch and heard Cadaverous Pallor talking. Hey, her voice! {I know, little things trip me out}.

And, to hear people say my name! It was really cool.

I am really glad people have posted pictures {and links} because my memory isn't so hot on names and it is nice to see some names reconnected to faces.

I can't wait to attend another meat and I can't wait until the Lashes' come down for some local meat. :D

Don't worry yourself about it. It was as I expected... DOD's blocking me from pic sites. When I got home, I found the pic and the album it came from.

Thanks for thinking of me, though :)

It was def a good time.

Best. Meat. Ever.

And NirvanaMan knows - he's had lots of meat!

Sounds like an amazing time was had by all. Sorry I missed it but I completely forgot that I had promised I would help a friend move. After leaving NA's we had another thing to go to. Got home super late and then spent the day moving. I was contemplating going to close the park but my mind was set on sleep. Moving people on 4 hours of sleep is not fun.

I was sorry not to have seen you myself but totally understand.

What a friend you are to help someone move! :snap:

I am so happy that I got to meet the LashPair over the weekend. Y'all are just too too adorable.... so warm and so much fun to hang out with.

My sleep schedule is still recovering from staying out so late on Sunday but holy lord it was all worth it!!!

Did we ever establish if he was indeed the World's Biggest Lashbear®?

I think it is a tough call. I mean, remember NA's comment about the last guy in line...'Not the first tall guy, not the second tall buy, but the third one...he's the last one of the group'.

So....maybe there should be some height posting?

Me, I am a puney 5'6...and a half. Gotta count that half!

But, I think he is the biggest Lashbear. That is for sure. ;0)

Is that in length AND girth?

It was a great day! And it was great to finally meet the Lashes!

:) :cool: :) :cool:

LOL Oh, I knew the fellas would want to go that way but I highly doubt the women would like to....so don't ask....

And it was quite nice to meet the Lindyhop!!

Boy was it a blast !!

We're still recovering from the April 1st meet and this evenings meet with the ISM/Zappp/Cricket brigade !! Those boys have a lot of get up and go !

We can't seem to break the cycle of Wake late, Go to park late, Stay till closing, get to sleep late.

Therefore, we might be a little late getting to the park tomorrow (and we have to pick up a car in the afternoon...)

We will probably make it for afternoon meet / drinkies but we have to turn into Pumpkins by 9:00pm.

Hoping to see Wenchybeth and others tomorrow evening.

Hugs
-The LashPair.

And after the "crazy balloon" fireworks failure this evening, I've half a very sleepy mind to try a last ditch Structure Roof effort on Thursday.


But only half a mind.

We'll be there !! :D

...but you're not to keep us out too late after the fireworks this time, OK ? :p

It was good to see you again. I hope to see you soon. Hugs

At least Saturday if not before !! :D

Well, Bears, I was downtown San Diego today and wondering what you guys are planning. I do love to see the tourists wandering about. I've lived here so long it is nice to see what they find interesting.

I am going to go to work and see if they've put me on the schedule for next week...maybe I'll be lucky and they won't have....:evil: Last time I took a LOA they didn't get me back up to speed for a couple of weeks. Nice way to get back in to the swing of things.

Inywho, moreso, it will give me a chance to maybe meet up with you guys at some of the things you do. Maybe. I'm hoping.

I just remember Stoat's line at dinner and now I'm all alone at home laughing very hard.

Somehow, we got on the subject of fishnets (I wonder if NirvanaMan had anything to do with it?). Anyways, LashBear was talking about wearing fishnets when Stoat piped up and said "You'd look just like a Christmas Ham!".

Are we allowed to quote somebody who doesn't post on the LoT?

Too late... already did.

Yes. Such as this gem from yesterday's LashMeet...

:cool:

We didn't get many pictures, not because we didn't have fun, but because we were too busy having fun to remember to bring out the camera.

However, we did get a few ones worth sharing.



Few pics here

Great pictures!!
