I'll be in New York tomorrow for a play what I wrote, and anyone who wants to get a drink with me should meet at the Dublin House pub at 6pm Saturday.

By the by, it's my birthday Monday, so if you want to buy me a beer, I'll drink it. My director is used to me showing up to my own plays drunk.

Hmm, Saturday is packed, but I might just make an appearance.

If it's any incentive, I'll have incredibly hot friends with me.

Shit, dude, I was just at the Dublin House last weekend. I lost my virginity in the building a few doors down on the corner of 79th and Amsterdam. (that didn't happen last weekend, just to be clear).

I'll be there.

Hot friends huh? Count me in.

Well, I'll warn you. My friends are small and I keep them in my pants.

You should never admit to having anything small in your pants.

I just may be able to drop by. However, I've been spending a lot of time on the UWS lately, so maybe not.

I shan't be there.

How many Astro Zombies are you bringing?

I'm still convalescing in Kansas.

I've got finals, but I'll try to catch everyone in the summer. :/

Astro Zombie, you and I have the same birthday! Also...I'm making my grand return that night from 3 months in Prague. For those reasons, I would very much like to go, but I'll but just off 10 hours flying. This had the oppportunity to be a one of the greatest coincidences of my life. Oh well...another time.

Dammit. Can't you make this sunday when I'm in NYC?

I look forward to meeting at least two of you people.

I'll come too, if that's cool. Will there be tickets on the door for your play?
posted by godawful at 8:35 AM on May 6, 2006

I'll be mid-Atlantic at that time, and will raise my glass to all of you. Cologne/Dusseldorf/Wuppertal meetup, anyone?

I'm planning to make a short appearance.

I meant to make it, I did I did, but thinking I could somehow make events at Chelsea Piers, UWS, and Times Square in a 3 hour time span was just craziness on my part, and you got the shaft this time. I do apologize.

Had a lovely night. Thanks all -- it was good to meet you.

Not very often you go to a meetup, see a play while sitting next to the author, and then have drinks with the cast. (And then mock David Blaine.)

Very memorable evening.
