I met my first real life Mefite→[More:] and it was great. Allkindsoftime memailed me this afternoon that he was passing through town. We met up for a beer and it was great. I now believe that most of you must exist in real life.
Dude. I won't say I feel left out ('cause I don't), but hey -- let's meet for a beer. If you're good, you'll luck in to lots of fresh produce from my garden.
oh mudpuppie. We talked about you. I almost Memailed you as I left the office but I figured you would have plans unlike the loser that I am. And, I felt terrible giving you a 1 hr notice. I owe you many beers for my dumb oversight.
Actually, 'allkindsoftime' is an agent. 'He' travels the country, memailing sceptical Mefites that he's 'just passing through town' and meeting them for beer. When called upon, he can pose as any member of the blue to keep the illusion of thousands of 'real' members alive. He's a master of disguise, you know.
Now that mudpuppie's programming is stuck in snotfucker mode, she's kinda given it away, but we can fix that. Yes, special-k! Meet 'mudpuppie' for beer. It's a good idea.
I'm having lunch tomorrow with amtho, and then going over to another mefite's house after that to see her baby!
I've not met amtho before, so that will be a treat!
And then pinky, who goes by something different on mecha, but I can't remember what, has been a friend already for a long time. She introduced me to the Meta-sites.
I should make it a trifecta. msali, whatcha up to tomorrow? :-)
