Photos from the Den Haag meetup. Ok, mini-meetup as only gnfti and I were present, but meetup nonetheless.→[More:]I was already pretty fried from travelling (and my schizophrenic dorm mate in Brussels), and so the shoutouts were mostly general. No offense meant. (Although I have to give a special apology to my Charm City homies...I should have shouted you out, since you rock so hard, but I was trying to forget home.)

gnfti revealed!
omie, you missed the valentines! Thanks for the shoutout (though I already gloated about it like an ass).

Speaking of mini-meetups, thanks for joining me for a drink Saturday, TrishaLynn. I shouted-out to all of you in my heart!

Welcome back, Omie! I am so excited to get a shout out! Hope you had a great time - post more pictures from your trip!

Omie -- you missed Valentine's Day, and I know you got Valentines aplenty. You might want to inquire as to whether there's any way to retrieve them?

Welcome back, Omiewise, I'm sure you'll remember to shout me out next time. Eh? Eh?

Bunnies! In boxes!

Oh yeah, Valentine's day. I'm sure Omie got a zillion. I know he was mentioned by name by, um, a certain someone, in the confess your crush thread.

Wait, there were valentines? Where can I see them?

posted by omiewise 21 February | 12:52

Omie, this explains it all.

And here's the confess your crush thread.

I'm so sad I missed the valentines! Everyone would have gotten one from me. As to crushes...it's too many to count.

(matildaben-sorry I forgot you.)

Wow!!! Omiewise is pretty hot.

Wowza!

I need one of those bunnies. So cute!

Metachat just has a generally high level of hotness all around. It's pretty amazing how that happened.

email dodgy---maybe he can retrieve them? (i looked around, but don't have all the power he does)

did you go to the Mauritshuis (Girl with a pearl earring is there, along with other wonderful stuff)? had you been before?

posted by amberglow 21 February | 13:53

OK now I feel stupid. I had to google 'den haag'. Sooo..you were in Holland? Good for you! And thanks for the shoutout!
Welcome home.

I did, I had never been before, and I went to all the museums I could. I was almost least impressed with GWAPE of all the Vermeers I saw, but I loved View of Delft which is also there. I went to The Hague especially to see that painting (as well as to have a beer with gnfti) because: 1) it's beautiful; 2) it is among my favorite Vermeers; 3) it features in a major and very touching scene in Proust (what a fucking geek I am).

peacay-I wasn't trying to be clever, but I realized that writing "The The Hague meetup" would be awkward. This way it's just like say "the hoi poloi"

Screw the museums, which coffeehouses did you hit?

I didn't say his spelling was correct (and yes, I know that too, I actually took a semester and a half of ancient Greek).
