Possible get together?

I think this sounds like fun and could be a good possible gtg.

Re: Possible get together?

  • I would totally be in but it would probably have to be on a weekend. There would be no way I'd do a Princeton to Wayne commute during the week. That has homicide written all over it. 

    With that said, I've always wanted to do one of these painty booze type classes.

  • Like playing beer pong, my art can only get better the more I drink, right?

  • It looks like the only two local ones are Skippack and Wayne.  I'm guessing Wayne would Wayne would be easier.  

     

    Maybe something we could do after the New Year?  I'd be down for a weekend evening too.

  • It sounds interesting.  I don't know a single person on this board though...would it be weird if I went by myself?  I don't want to feel like the lone ranger, off in a corner by myself acting fairly awkward.  *cringe*

    I haven't met everyone IRL yet!  I'm a total spazz and I still have friends...right?

    But I'm in for a gtg.  It's been too damn long since we've had a good one.

  • I haven't met anyone either IRL, yet you all seem like my friends in a way.  I am non on FB so I really don't know anyone.  I hope they serve water lol.

    False!

     

    Anyhoo, have no fear, SJU! It would not be weird at all. Well, yes. It's kind of weird meeting people you 'met' on the internets lol. I'm still working on that with DH 5ish years later, haha! But I can assure you that we are not serial killers.

  • This sounds fun! I would be down for a gtg but after the holidays, we have so much going on and not many weekends left

    My DH still calls you my "imaginary friends" since we met on the internet you can't possibly be real people, regardless of the fact he has met several of you on more than one occassion

  • Well in that case, count me in.

    Haha, I can just imagine trying to explain this to my hubby.  He's not even aware that I post on this board.  According to him, the only reason I use the internet is for Facebook and Pinterest.

    Yeah maybe we need this to be after the holidays so for those of you who need to ease your husbands into this, "I met people on the internet, I'm going to hang out with them, I don't know them, they don't know me but I promise they aren't going to kill me" thing.

    I'm dying laughing at all of the STRANGER DANGER stuff from the husbands.  My DH and I's convos, when I'm speaking of someone with whom I am very friendly with IRL go something like this (this was a few weeks ago):

    Me: So I'm going for drinks with Jess and Heather
    DH: Jess and Heather who?
    Me: you know who they are
    DH: FROM THE KNOT?!?!?!?!

    This conversation usually takes place in line at Target or Giant on a really crowded Saturday afternoon.

    This made me giggle.

  • Mr.D wasn't too perplexed by the idea but when you are hanging out with Nesties and their husbands and someone asks how you all met, it can get a little awkward.

  • I'd definitely be down for this, but for sure after the holidays.  One of my old coworkers did this, I think it was this company too.  She had a great time. 

    I agree, everyone should come out.  We aren't that scary.  And this sounds like a good one, an activity that will help with any awkwardness. 

  • I lied, my friend used Uncorked Artist.  It's in Warminster, don't know if that's better/worse than the other options location wise.  As I said she had a great time, and a cute picture when she was done.

    That's pretty much the exact same conversation that we have when I hang out with you. "Wait, so is that the one with the kid in the daycare we looked at, or the one with the older kid?"

    Warminster is like 800 years closer for me than Wayne. Wayne is about an hour away from me.

    eSyn and I meet lando for lunch sometimes...and all of us have survived the "stranger danger."  LOL

  • I'd really be fine with any location.  The furthest for me is Warminster but I can still go there.  I guess it would be a majority vote.

  • I would go for this as well...after the holidays.  Sounds like a lot of fun.

     And for the SP girls (and Lando, since you're right over the bridge), I will offer to drive, bebe, this includes you too.  lol, nothing like getting in a car with total complete strangers to go meet more strangers.

    I love that I'm an honorary SPer.  I will probably take you up on your offer, as usual. :)

  • OK so I know this was Shannon's idea but what do you girls think about sometime in Feb? I suggest Feb because while Christmas is in December, I know a lot of people need some time to get themselves back in order ($$$!!) in January from the holidays.
