Dallas: Anyone here & wanna do the meetup thing? Like, tonight or tomorrow? See MeTa thread here, or just scroll down the front page over here to see why I'd like this to happen. I don't care how small it turns out to be, and you may get to meet my sister!

Lemme know.

I hope your quest for a Dallas meetup is more fruitful than this one for a Toronto meetup...

*sigh*

If I were in the vicinity, I'd be there. Have a Shiner for me.

I showed up.

I was at the Grapevine Bar from 8:45 to 10:00.

I think there was a fundamental flaw in the plan, though.

I looked around for a "meetup" (that is, a sign or people getting to know each other). I didn't notice one. All the people appeared to be there with friends. I talked to the few people who appeared to be looking for other people as well, and none of those people were there for any sort of meetup.

So I hung out. Drank a couple crown and cokes. Watched the Olympics on the television.

A failed attempt for me. That's a shame. I was looking forward to meeting new people and buying a round.

Oh well, maybe next time.
