Meet Jessamyn in NYC January 28, 2005 1:42 PM Subscribe
jessamyn will be in NYC next weekend, and she's free on Sunday evening, 6 Feb. If we take her out for drinks, maybe she'll let us touch the ban-hammer! (Or at least the delete-mallet.)
Oh really. Hmmmmmm!
There's a big meetup the weekend after that, but I could pencil alittle something in.
And I'm always down for Rififi.

Say hi for me (from here in Seattle, her old stomping grounds).

I used to perform at Rififi until the night we bombed. Maybe I'll drop on by.

Be sure to bring a thousand questions with you to ask Jessamyn.

I might actually qualify. And I work full time. This is sad.

Far as I know, Jessamyn just has an oven-mitt, not an iron gauntlet.
Still: grill her.

I'm in. Plus that Rififi place is like 6 blocks from my Apt., so I vote for that.

Sweet... I'm currently taking out student loans, so I'm making negative money. I win.

Can Jessamyn back up a week later?
No, but drinks are on me if anyone wants to come to Central Vermont. However, the bars close at 11. Oven mitt, I like that.

When my wife and I make it to Vermont to visit the meditation center her parents were living at when she was born, we're going to drop in for some tea or hot chocolate. We'll give you plenty of notice. Promise.

The game kicks off at 6:30.
They do have a couple of small TVs in the front room of Rififi (if I remember), but I don't suspect they'll have the sound up if the DJs are on, so if that's not enough then maybe going either much earlier or a little later (the game won't be over until about 10 or so, especially with the Cover-Your-Naughty-Bits Tabernacle choir or whoever doing the halftime show).

So far, there's three nyc meetups of varying magnitude this month. I hope to make at least one, and I really want to see Jessamyn drink with the oven mitt on.

So, what is the status of the meet-up? Earlier as amberglow suggested above or 7pm?
