    [QUOTE]NUGGET THAT IS A BUNCH OF BULLSHIT. It's because Noodle thinks I'm going to make you into a human skin suit. And I'm not interested in stuff that goes on on my local. If there was a massive E get together in town, I'd for sure go.
    Posted by crfische[/QUOTE]

    This is true.  But now I don't care what Noodle says, I would totally go to a GTG.  SO START INVITING ME OTHERWISE I WILL THINK YOU'RE RACIST.

    [QUOTE]If the PHX one happens, I'll likely say I can't make it due to logistical things with our car/driving issues at the moment, but in reality it would be because I figure it would probably be a girl thing and I usually need to have Buddy with me for unfamiliar outings.
    Posted by temerityjane[/QUOTE]

    I'll be in AZ in August with FI if you care to have a co-ed GTG. FI would do it if I told him to. Plus, he'll be with me anyway since we're traveling for a wedding.

    I'd go if anyone was ever in my area.  My local is pretty dead, but I might go to a Colorado Nesties one at some point (although they seem like a fairly tight-knit group).

    East lives near me, but she's too good for a GTG, so...

    FB message me before you go with your cell, because I'm totally blowing your sh*t up until you agree to meet me someplace.  Unless you do, in fact, want to make a lampshade out of me, in which case I will not be blowing your sh*t up and will instead be filing a restraining order.

    Also, this is my jealous face that you get to go to a Twins game AND a Vikings game in the same week.  <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-yell.gif" border="0" alt="Yell" title="Yell" />

    [QUOTE]I planned to go to the Chicago one, but couldn't afford it.  If it were held in the fall or later, I'd definitely go.  And quotequeen, I wasn't exactly invited, but there was a general "chicago gtg" post and I asked for more information, which poli provided in a pm.

    I did actually post on a thread about it and nobody responded or PMed me.  S'ok, I would probably have felt out of place anyway.  Maybe next time.  <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" />

    For some weird reason, TK thinks I live in Tucson, and no one in their right mind would have a GTG in Tucson.

    I'm actually in Phoenix. 

    ... Of course, I'm also scared of people IRL, so I don't know if Phoenix vs. Tucson would make a difference.

    Celles - I might Buddy in Tucson. It was pretty armpitty.

    jasmineh - No, he's not. I've never had a companion animal. The idea has been entertained at times, but mostly, I do okay.

    Can we at least start calling the "Canadian" GTG the Niagara or Ontario one?  Because, you know, Canada is big and all.
