I realize this could be a really ugly drive from up this way. I suppose we could have something up here, too, if anyone is free. I'm behind on meeting all of you.
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
I'd love to meet you, but I can't drive that far on a weeknight. Maybe next time! If you do meet in LA, I'm definitely down.
- Anika
Well, like I said, we could have something up here, too. I want to meet all of you. The rest is details.
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
3, when you say "up here", where is that?
- Corinne L
My hotel's in Culver City, but I have a rental car and I'm not afraid to use it.
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
Would definitely love to meet you. Logistically, here is what I'm working with: I live in Pomona, work in Irvine from 9-6, pick up by daughter in Pomona by 7. I could work from home Wednesday. That would open things up quite a bit.
- chrisofspades
So Wednesday works for you? That would be great for me. Honestly, I don't even care what we do.
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
What's your schedule like with work?
- chrisofspades
Pretty much 8-5. I may have to stay a little late Wednesday since I have have early flight Thursday, but I can probably go in early.
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
Actually, I might stay a little late tomorrow just for insurance. I don't want to miss this possible meetup.
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
Okay we should be able to make something happen. I'm looking at a map trying to see what would make the best sense haha.
- chrisofspades
Dang, Chris, your commute is not the business. :(
- Derrick
Yeah, D, it's far. But I take the toll roads so I don't hit too much traffic.
- chrisofspades
Lnor suggested Long Beach as a middle point. Anaheim might be better. Well, for me anyway.
- chrisofspades
I've got transpo and stamina issues so I can't easily get beyond the Pasadena area. I can make it into H'wood on Metro Rail Red Line. Don't hold up on my account. p.s. I do not envy Chris his commute.
- Spidra Webster
DB, hate to burst your bubble but Snoop lives in Diamond Bar now haha.
- chrisofspades
I can do Anaheim, depending on time of day. PS Daryl, Snoop lives out in the 'burbs where I grew up. He's a coach of my friend's kid's football team.
- Anika
You never know. Maybe you could catch him visiting his momma 'an'nem.
- DB Botts - Just DB Botts
Snoop is currently in Brasil. He can't make it.

I can do Anaheim. Jake's school is right there.

I have no idea, Anika. I don't know the area at all. Can any of you suggest any places to meet?
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
Anaheim! Awesomesauce. I know zillions of places. Gimme a head count time and I can throw out some ideas.

Whenever I do meetups in Anaheim, we always wind up at Downtown Disney. I much prefer heading a bit east and going to The Block, but I'm usually in the minority, so whatever the group says...
- Anika
Hrm... D&B doesn't have great food, but I usually keep a loaded game card on me. :)
- ha3rvey (Hugs 50% off!)
Do we have a time? I can do D&B...the food there and at the Arcadia location is usually good during the week. :) I also have a couple of cards here.
- Anika
from FFHound!
If there's room for one more, I'd love to meet up with you all!
- Adam
D&B sounds like a blast for us! We have a card there too
- Just Katie
Yes, Adam must come so you can all confirm his accent. ;P
- Anika
We're set for 6pm D&B at The Block? Do we have a headcount? Anyone make reservations? FWIW, assuming Adrian is coming, that means all 4 of us will be there.
- Anika
from FFHound!
I'll pick Jake up at 5pm in Anaheim and be there before 6pm. I can get in early with the headcount and put in our name
- Just Katie
Katie, Chris are you bringing your kids? Adrian has a hearing, so won't be coming. If you guys aren't bringing hour kids I'll see if someone can watch mine.
- Anika
from FFHound!
I have a Planning Commission hearing that starts at 7 but should over by 7:20 maybe. Won't be able to get there until probably close to 7:45 or 8.
- TINY REPTILIAN PYROMANIAC
Yep. Jake will be with me per usual. Have no where else for him to go :)
- Just Katie
You know, I didn't really ask if that's ok. Are we doin' an adult dinner out or are the kidlets cool too?
- Just Katie
He's about Alton's age, right? Then I'll bring my minions; 3 for me.
- Anika
from FFHound!
Yep. I was telling him that the last time they all played together was like what....2 or 3 years ago now?
- Just Katie
Yeah...something like that. It 2009 I think. We still have Jake's shovel. :)
- Anika
from FFHound!
I think I might make it, if there's room for one more!
- Jaclyn Bedoya
That's 12....I'll call later and see if they take a reservation or if I should just make it there earlier to get a table
- Just Katie
Wish I could make it. I will be up in Marina del Rey/Santa Monica until around 8 pm. Let me know if you stop back at the Culver City hotel for a drink.
- Amani
I really appreciate the offers for rides and such but there are several limitations I have that make it difficult even with the help of a ride to Anaheim. I very much appreciate all the offered help, though!
- Spidra Webster
I'm so jealous. DAMN THE PACIFIC OCEAN!
- ☆ Mellyboo ☆
Ugh, sorry but my back has me on the floor for the time i'm not sitting up to work from home right now. Please win many plastic tiny toys in my honor.
- SteVe C
FWIW, I'd be really stoked if Victor came down. So stoked his 1st drinks on me.

I'm on my way to LA! I know this is short notice, but I would love to meet some of my SoCal friends. I'll arrive today, and leave Thursday. I'll be working Tue and Wed, so I hope we can plan some sort of impromptu meetup one evening this week.
Barring major financial accidents, I'm planning on being in the Bay Area again Sept 13 - 23 or so. The 13 - 15 I will be in the Santa Rosa area for the Heirloom Expo. I will probably be most available for FFeedups the 19th - 23rd. I'll be in the East Bay for sure on the 19th because I'm meeting someone for a late lunch.
I still don't know if I'm working then, late that day or early the next morning.
- Anne Bouey
Thanks, Anne. I'm just anxious to get things tied down because I don't have internet on my phone which means I'll only sporadically be able to check FF and email once I'm on the road. But you have my phone #.
- Spidra Webster
Alright, I'm getting my ass on the road up there within the next hour.
