    While everyone is buzzing around here (heh), I thought it might be a good time to ask if any NYC bees would be down for a meetup?  I don't know if there is any official protocol for planning this, but I have an idea for a cheap place (with free food!), and I'd LOVE to meet some of my fellow bees!

    Let me know if you'd be interested?

    I'm not in the city anymore--need to update my location.  But this sounds fun.  :-)  I need more positive excuses to leave and get back to the city.

    I think it'd be fun. :-)  We moved to Westchester recently, but right across from the Metro North station.  So still easy city access.

    @judithsr: @NYCcaliBRIDE: Yay!  This is super exciting!  I'll keep this going to collect names of interested bees tonight, but everyone feel free to tell other NY bees you know who might not be on!

    Can you tell I'm excited?  Hehe

    @TinyTina: Of course you can!!!

    @bRooklynRocks: I know!  I'm super excited! 

    The place I'm thinking of has free appetizers on Monday nights til 9:00 (boneless buffalo wings, margherita pizza, calamari and hummus are the options).  Their happy hour goes til 9:00 too ($5 flavored martinis!).  Is that something that sounds like it would work for you bees?  Or would you prefer a weekend shindig?

    I work in the city until 6pm so a Monday night works for me. But maybe people coming from Westchester would prefer a weekend? Idk anyone else have any thoughts?

    Monday is better for me since I am already in the city for work and don't have to make an extra trip into the city on the weekend train! :)

    @sarahbabs:  Hope you're feeling better!  Andd I think I need to pay more attention to this thread.

    And you said near Bryant Park right?  That would be awesome, because I'd have to take the train to Grand Central.  And that would be super convenient.  :-)

    @TinyTina:  I'm a bit unobservant...just saw your comment.  I live in Hastings.  :-)  For almost a month now.  I think we're on the same section, but opposite side of the land piece.  If that's a proper way to describe geography.

    Sounds great to me as well.  September the 19th would be the Monday before our wedding, so I'm sure I'll be needing some down time!

    I remain sick, and as you all know, Irene threw a wrench in a lot of things this weekend, but I WILL call today, hell or high water! :D

    And

    @jouissance: It will go till at least 9:00, so feel free to come by whenever you get off :)

    @TinyTina: No problem!  I love stuff like this, and I am super excited too :)

    I am still sick actually, but trying to plough through - the hurricane-enforced home rest this weekend didn't help, so what else can I do?  lol
