HOW MANY OF US WILL BE AT FAP I MUST KNOW.

― quincie, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:03 (eighteen years ago) link

ALSO WHAT TIME IS IT

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:12 (eighteen years ago) link

IT IS 4:13 PM WHAT DID THEY NOT TEACH YOU TO TELL TIME AT DUCK???

― quincie, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:13 (eighteen years ago) link

I can't. I was going to make the 2.5 hour drive to DC yet again to go to some open houses and visit some other places & then stop by the FAP, but I'm just not up to it. I'm so tired. I'm sick of driving. Have to wait for the next one. I slept for like ten hours and I'm still exhausted.

― dar1a g (daria g), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:15 (eighteen years ago) link

7:30! 7:30!

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Tomorrow! Tomorrow! wait. is this tonight?!?

― TOMBOT, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:19 (eighteen years ago) link

Shut up, you already know it's tomorrow.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:19 (eighteen years ago) link

ha ha I just printed out a bunch of schedules (between date and FAP I will get to take three! bus lines tomorrow) and yeah I didn't note that each of the pdfs are about twenty pages long and my coworkers are all like "bus dork WTF?" as they wait for their print jobs to come off the shared printer.

― quincie, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:29 (eighteen years ago) link

BUS schedules, that is. Also forgive lack of subject-verb agreement. I R an editor, you know.

― quincie, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:30 (eighteen years ago) link

Wait, seriously, what day is it?

― dar1a g (daria g), Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:33 (eighteen years ago) link

Tomorrow (Thursday).

― quincie, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:37 (eighteen years ago) link

THURSDAY 7:30

― TOMBOT, Wednesday, 26 October 2005 19:37 (eighteen years ago) link

WAIT IT'S NOT STANDARD TIME YET IS IT?

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Thursday, 27 October 2005 01:46 (eighteen years ago) link

Actually, I asked myself that question for most of Sunday. And probably will again.

I'll be at the FAP, but don't let that stop you.

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Thursday, 27 October 2005 01:48 (eighteen years ago) link

How will I recognize everyone?

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 October 2005 02:43 (eighteen years ago) link

Cherchez les dorks!

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Thursday, 27 October 2005 02:55 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh, well then. I knew there was a reason I couldn't get my shit together to head to DC today.

Wait, what's that in military time plz?

― dar1a g (daria g), Thursday, 27 October 2005 03:08 (eighteen years ago) link

What are the cross-streets?

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 October 2005 03:55 (eighteen years ago) link

I think my date will wrap up around 8:30 or so (alas, my hott geophysicist has to return to his stunning wife and gorgeous children), after which I'll hop the 42 bus and join you all. Keep an eye out for an unusually tall brunette carrying a red bag filled with PRESENTS!

― quincie, Thursday, 27 October 2005 12:10 (eighteen years ago) link

Stephen, if you weren't at the FAP I actually think I'd be pretty sad.

Mary I'm not sure what the cross streets are but it's smack in the middle of the 18th St drag in dreaded Adam's Morgan (that's like what Columbia & 18th?). On the same side of the street as Heaven & Hell, a few doors down from it IIRC. You will recognize me as Girl #3 from The Magician.

In military time, that is 1930.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Thursday, 27 October 2005 12:58 (eighteen years ago) link

18th & belmont. oooh, presents!

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Thursday, 27 October 2005 13:04 (eighteen years ago) link

I am wearing black pinstripe pants from H&M, black doc marten square-toed loafers and a grey ribbed zip mock sweater. I'm Hi, Dude Generic.

― TOMBOT, Thursday, 27 October 2005 13:10 (eighteen years ago) link

Aw, Ally.

I look like one of the guys they bring in to fill out police lineups.

― Stephen X (Stephen X), Thursday, 27 October 2005 13:30 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh god, I will never find parking. I didn't realize it was in the smouldering heart of Adams Morgan. I am wearing: black sweater, jean skirt, brown boots, black tights, brown plaid blazer. Will be reading: The Princess Cassamassa if arrive before everyone else.

― WORKER, Thursday, 27 October 2005 13:43 (eighteen years ago) link

Is j.lu here posting under a different name? If not, where is she??? Tis the season to be KNITTING.

― quincie, Thursday, 27 October 2005 13:56 (eighteen years ago) link

there is usually (or at least there was when i lived there three years ago) parking available on florida around v st/ontario. walk up 18th, though, rather than cutting through the marie reed center.

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Thursday, 27 October 2005 14:26 (eighteen years ago) link

Sorry to distress anyone, I just haven't been posting as much on ILE these days. Although I have been following this thread. Pharmacy Bar tonight after 7:30? See you there.

― j.lu (j.lu), Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:11 (eighteen years ago) link

this is zack and me - we'll be there at 730 or so...

― petesmith (plsmith), Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:14 (eighteen years ago) link

I might try and show up to this.

― adam (adam), Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:54 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm tall and look like a hurricane refugee. J-Lu might remember our encounter at the Unrest show earlier this year.

― adam (adam), Thursday, 27 October 2005 15:58 (eighteen years ago) link

that was a pretty great show. if only they'd played a bit longer.

― Zack Richardson (teenagequiet), Thursday, 27 October 2005 16:11 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm headed out of the office early to maximize pre-lecture beer consumption. See you all tonight. If you ditch Pharmacy for elsewhere before I arrive, maybe leave a note with the bartender or something.

Also: I have just received a flu shot, so if I look a little peaked just get another drink in me and I will be fine.

― quincie, Thursday, 27 October 2005 18:42 (eighteen years ago) link

did dc really wait for me to leave to start being fun?
that is so lame of dc!

― carly (carly), Thursday, 27 October 2005 18:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Where is Flordia,I am coming over the 14th street bridge. Should I just go to V and then turn (left?)?

― posting from work, Thursday, 27 October 2005 20:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Florida is between Georgia and Cuba!

I apologize, Mary, for doing that just there.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Thursday, 27 October 2005 20:20 (eighteen years ago) link

sure

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Thursday, 27 October 2005 20:22 (eighteen years ago) link

Heh, I thought that might happen. Actually, I think I turn right on V?

― posting from work, Thursday, 27 October 2005 20:23 (eighteen years ago) link

nah, turn left on V

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Thursday, 27 October 2005 20:24 (eighteen years ago) link

Okay, thanks. I will probably be there early (leaving work soon) unless I have parallel parking panic attack and end up endless circling the joint.

― WORKER, Thursday, 27 October 2005 20:41 (eighteen years ago) link

Didya have fun?

― curmudgeon (Steve K), Friday, 28 October 2005 03:51 (eighteen years ago) link

also i swear to the sweet lord jesus marimba this was the first time in my entire life that i've ever dropped a drink and i could just die of the shame.

― Zack Richardson (teenagequiet), Friday, 28 October 2005 05:08 (eighteen years ago) link

pete knows so much more than we can imagine
i should have been there
we should all have our dream job
the metro should run later
noone should be puked on "a lot"
pythagorean records should be called upon a lot more

― carly (carly), Friday, 28 October 2005 05:32 (eighteen years ago) link

After you drink Baron Von Munchausen's beer he waits until you go to sleep and then fires 100mph bean bags at your head for 6 hours. The more you know.

― TOMBOT, Friday, 28 October 2005 11:14 (eighteen years ago) link

they should have put that part in the movie

― Zack Richardson (teenagequiet), Friday, 28 October 2005 12:32 (eighteen years ago) link

To the last leavers, I'm sorry I ducked out kind of suddenly and didn't get much chance to say goodbye!
