But, yes, me3dia, I'm moving to England, and in with TheDonF.

I'm okay, thanks! Hee! On the train back from the meetup! It was great although the pub shut at about 10:30! WTF?! Everyone says hi! Well, everyone who knows you! Hee! Twatter is down again! Quelle surprise! Not much longer for that, though! See you on Wednesday! I'll apologise in advance again about the mess! *whuffles Specklet*

Everyone else: carry on as normal!

This might be weird! But you and I have similar lips! But mine always look weird and yours always look cute! Why?

Hey, I live in Bushwick. I'll probably be at King's County later. You and your boys should stop by.

Hey, there's also a free rooftop party in the hood:

Ultimate Adventure

As the icy pre-summer season has melted, it's time to celebrate with rooftop adventures. Come and get lost in the giant maze, hang out in a tee-pee, ring around the rosie, dance, and have fun -- one or all of these. Cheap-o liquor, plus music by DJ Justin Kase and DJ John.

75 Stewart Avenue, at Johnson Avenue, Brooklyn
L train to Jefferson station
party time; $free

Hi! I worked late and then got a haircut and then drank a bunch of cider, then put my girls to bed! Now, I'm half cut, and checking in with metachatters! Have fun as always Specklet! I'm sorry I'm not in Brooklyn too!

Hi hi hi oooh oooh ooh (channeling the kids from Welcome Back, Kotter) -- I'm throwing a party tomorrow night -- yay! It's a game night -- Pictionary, Taboo, Hoopla. PLUS make your own sandwich with panini sandwich grills. Because EVERYTHING is better with melted cheese. And tomatoes and avocadoes. Yay!

posted by Claudia_SF 23 May | 22:15

Wow. Wish I could go to your party, hellbient. Say hi to anyone I might know! Speck, best luck going mobile! Happy everyone!

posted by Miko 23 May | 23:34

wooooHOO! The Speck! You know somebody here found a 54 euro round-trip ticket between Athens and London over the weekend?

Y'all should pop over for a visit sometime... in fact, at that price, there should just be a London meetup in Athens one of these days.

posted by taz 23 May | 23:50

Holy cats, Wednesday?! I am excited for you!

We should totally have an Athens meetup. It's only 200 Euros round trip from here, which is quite reasonable.

posted by cmonkey 24 May | 09:15

Squee! Specklet! In the big big city! Have fun! Say hi to the NYC crew for me! Or I could do it myself! Hi, NYC crew! Wish I could come to the meetup, too! Yay, moving in with your dreamboat! (That last one was for Specklet! Not the NYC crew! Though I hope you all live with your dreamboats, if not now then one day!)

Safetyfork! Hihihi!

posted by elizard 24 May | 10:21

Hi, Specklet! I hope you had a great time in Florida. Weeks without the internet sounds very relaxing. Have a great time in NYC and a safe and happy trip to England!

posted by LoriFLA 24 May | 10:35

Hi! Hi! Go Go Specklet and TheDonF!

posted by rainbaby 24 May | 12:29

I wish I could Specklet, but I can't seem to fucking FIND this goddamn place. ARGH OUT OF TOWNISHNESS.

posted by sperose 24 May | 16:57

It's real easy, sperose, truly... just take the 7 train (which you can get at either Grand Central or Times Square) to the Hunters Point station in Queens and look for signs to the Water Taxi. It's only a couple of stops from Manhattan... real quick trip, really (I take it every day).

Hope to see ya!
