Who is in L.A.?
« on: January 13, 2009, 12:58:26 PM »
I'll be in Los Angeles in mid-April.  Anyone up for a lunchtime field trip and a meat-space meeting?

I'll see what I can do, Vespertine. Not only is OC another world, it can also be a 3 hour drive. That's how long it took us to get there the last time we visited. I can actually get to San Francisco in less time.

That means if anything goes wrong, ivan will be stuck on an island somewhere in the middle of nowhere with xolik and Vespertine.

Oh well.  There could be worse ways to spend a few years in isolation...

If that's not a premise for a new sit-com, I don't know what is.

Now I think we need to have a discussion about which one of them gets to be "Little Buddy".

I thought the better debate would be Vespertine = Ginger OR MaryAnn?

Vespertine is probably closer to a bizarre combination of Ginger, MaryAnn AND the Professor.

Red hair and lip gloss - check
Kind of girl next doorish at the same time - check
Full to the brim with useless facts/factoids/trivia - check

EDIT: Also, I own, like, three Gilligan hats.

I'll be in LA because I have a wedding to attend.  The wedding is Saturday, April 11.  I'll definitely stick around through Sunday the 12th and probably head home Monday the 13th.  I'll probably come into town on Thursday, April 9, and have no plans until the wedding...so I could come to you guys if it's more convenient.

What about it?  Am I tentatively penciled in with you for any of that time, ivan and xolik?
