Linds if I had a fedora I would do gangster* with you.

The mock zombie outbreak idea pretty much made up my mind. I'm going to try and see if I can make it up to tronnocon. Booze, fancy dresses, and zombies makes a nice vacation for me!

Something Witty · « **Reply #355 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 11:01 »

If we're going to have a dress up night, it needs to be fucking super fancy because I own a Tux but not a suit, and I don't want to be over dressed.

Lines · « **Reply #356 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 11:45 »

I will not be carting up one of my super fancy dresses. I think I may do the gangster/mobster thing. I just have to go find a fedora. Drat. (Unless I find a not shady one from the thrift store, then not so drat.)

Emaline · « **Reply #357 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 12:43 »

Right now, I am sure I am traveling somewhere this June. However, I'm not sure if it will be for this/camping in Toronto, or shopping in Chicago.

Boro_Bandito · « **Reply #358 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 13:36 »

I don't have a tux, I just have an all black suit. But as long as the place only requires jacket/tie, I think I'll be good.

0bsessions · « **Reply #359 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 13:47 »

Who needs a place? I say we all just sit around the hostel in our fancy outfits drinking Brandy and talking about international affairs.

And by international affairs, I mean women Tommy has slept with.

And by slept with, I mean left unsatisfied.

Lines · « **Reply #360 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 13:55 »

He won't be there, so it won't be as interesting. And what if I have questions?! Calling long distance would be too expensive.

0bsessions · « **Reply #361 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 13:59 »

The hostel has free Wi-Fi. We can just IM him from Shane's lap top!

...why do I have the sudden sinking feeling that a bunch of us are going to end up in Gabbly at some point in the weekend...talking to each other?

Liz · « **Reply #362 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 14:12 »

Because that would be awesome.

Please take everything with a pinch of salt, a slice of lime and a shot of old Cuervo.

Man I am not bringing that poor sheep all the way to Toronto.

supersheep · « **Reply #366 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 15:43 »

According to a somewhat inebriated conversation in the pub today, I am living in Chicago for the summer, which means I should be able to pop up for a while. I am a happy bunny.

Liz · « **Reply #367 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 15:46 »

Hmm, we could possibly arrange another carpool, since the first is full. Things are looking promising.

Something Witty · « **Reply #368 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 15:49 »

Another carpool going through chicago? do I sense car-to-car DS fights?

Liz · « **Reply #369 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 15:49 »

That would be sweet. There could be a caravan!

KTkat · « **Reply #370 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 15:57 »

Yay caravans! If there would be another car through Chicago, I could definitely come. And I'd be willing to share a hostel room.

Slick · « **Reply #371 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 16:00 »

This seems very much like an XKCD thing to do, but on one family road-trip when I was younger, I sat for hours on my laptop in the car while my parents were driving, in the hopes that someone would see my wireless network and join and chat.
No one ever did.

tommydski · « **Reply #372 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 16:06 »

That short story is a microcosm of Slick's entire life.

yelley · « **Reply #373 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 21:27 »

1. i am not bringing fancy clothes to this. you kids can wear what you want, i am wearing jeans and tshirts.

2. if any of you end up talking to each other on gabbly, i will kill you. don't be lame, guys.

3. chicago carpoolers... are you guys going to drive through michigan? can i caravan with you guys? hells year multiple car ds fights.

Something Witty · « **Reply #374 on:** 22 Jan 2008, 22:04 »

The car I'm driving is, I'm not sure where we want to cross the border though, so our routes might drop us off at the same place.

Worth mentioning, Katie and Mai are leaving atlanta on the morning of the 18th(?) at around 10AM, last I heard. That puts them on my doorstep at 8-9PM(timezone switch), This puts us in chicago at 7-8AM. This puts us at the hostel at ~5PM(Timezone switch back) on the 19th. This timetable does not include any stops, such as food/stretching/hot hot makeouts between katie and mai/anything else we stop for. It is also subject to change based on the whims of the people who will be in the car.

That's my plan, I have every intention of totally ruining my sleep schedule like so: stay up all night the night/morning of the 16/17th, sleeping all day on the 17th and 18th, driving all night on the 18/19th, then rocking all day on the 19th with no sleep, putting me back on schedule for the rest of the weekend.

This all depends on whether or not everyone else is sleeping in the car and should at no point be considered a smart/safe thing to do.

Odi, you're gonna be there? (I think you owe me a beer or the other way around)

supersheep · « **Reply #377 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 08:43 »

Looks quite likely - I'll know within a week or two for definite. And I think it was that I would buy you a Guinness if you ever came to Ireland, but fuck it. Let's get pissed.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #380 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:32 »

BAD NEWS GUYS!

I was trying to organise this so I could be at the Tronno meet and then catch a domestic to Vancouver to visit my best friend for her wedding. HOWEVER.
The way my boyfriend's exams are now scheduled mean that we would actually be arriving in Canada on the 23rd or 24th at the very earliest, and even then we are being sent tickets to Vancouver rather than Tronno.
Maybe... uh. Next time?

tommydski · « **Reply #381 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:36 »

I am sure nobody will hold it against you that you are going to Peta's wedding.

She is one of us after all.

Slick · « **Reply #382 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:37 »

Nooooooo Lunchboxxxx! You should just come to Toronto sans The Boy and meet him in Vancouver. This would make much more sense.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #383 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:38 »

See the problem with this is that my tickets are being paid for by Peta's parents-in-law as a present to her.
Also the dates aren't set yet because they are waiting for us to confirm, and there is another wedding in the family in August, so they don't want to hold it in late June/July which means that even if we do come we will probably have missed the actual wedding anyway! We need to come in those times though because it is my boy's final year at Uni and these are the only two weeks he can get off.
Also I have never travelled by myself before, let alone on a plane or out of the country or having to use multiple forms of transport! Argh! I would probably get lost at Sydney airport and nobody would ever see me again.

tommydski · « **Reply #384 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:48 »

Lunchy, you really don't have to explain.

It is of paramount importance that you are at your best friends' wedding! That is a complete no brainer.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #385 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:54 »

But the thing is I probably won't be there anyway! I am just coming to Canada for the sake of coming to Canada really.

Slick · « **Reply #386 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:55 »

It's cool. We'll all road trip out to Australia someday.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #387 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 16:56 »

So um anyone up for a QC Vancouverish Meet on the 30th of June?

Boro_Bandito · « **Reply #388 on:** 23 Jan 2008, 20:11 »

That's easy enough. After getting to Toronto and partying it up for the weekend, we saddle up the remaining cars (with extra Red Rider wagons for those of us that don't fit/strapped to the hoods and stuffed in trunks of said vehicles) and we make our way cross-country utilizing our inherent musical and theatrical talents to secure meals and lodging for nights as well as gas money.

I think I am going to refrain from posting in this thread anymore until more details are ironed out because you shitdicks and your waffling and your not knowing for sure about things is just stressing me out. So just know that I am going and I am bringing people and our plans have not and will not change.
