"Favorites Party on The Roof" POSTPONED. :(
posted August 19, 2011 8:17 AM RSS | iCal | +googleCal
Sat August 27 at 9:00 PM, MAH ROOF
151 Rivington St, New York, NY, USA (Map & Directions)
I did, in fact, promise that if I hit 1000 faves I'd have a party. So, I will be hosting a shindig on my roof, open to all, in honor of everybody getting favorites all the time forever.
This is happening Saturday, August 27th. So there. The address attached is totally wrong because I didn't want to put my home address on the internets. Therefore, memail me for my address if you want to come!
---
I live on the Lower East/SoHoish. I'll provide a negligible amount of wine and snax, but it'll be low-key BYOWhatever. I'm thinking not this weekend, but next. Maybe next Saturday, round 9? I will be kicking y'all out at midnight, due to noise. But we can keep party hardy-ing at nearby Marshall Stack.
Also, I really am going to see if I can't hook up the tinychat webcam so that everybody can come. Bring it, Idaho. You too, California.

We've been having a bit of trouble with leaving the dog alone (and she's never travelled anywhere yet, much less between boroughs), so the lady and I will play this one by ear.

Aw. I remember the "terrible 2s" of dogdom. But you HAVE to come. Sorry, you do.

Apparently our upstairs neighbor was able to tell me exactly when I left and got home last Friday night because there was interminable barking in between the two events.

Congrats, I probably won't be able to make it because I have two baby parties that weekend (!) but I will think good thoughts at you and your fellow revelers and I'm glad you're here on metafilter :)

I'm a definite maybe I'll be coming from the SI Food Truck Rally so may be too stinky for human company, but I'd hate to miss it.

I am encouraged by SF Mefites who have made great friend from meetups (MostlyBeans), and I will say I can include myself for roof parties!

Do we wanna do it on Friday for the presence of the Nog, or will that derail everyone's plans?

I'll be at the Compleat Strategist for a game that usually ends five-ish (or before six-ish, I guess) so it may depend on how I'm feeling about life after saving the Earth from an alien invasion fleet.

the one on 33rd is still open, but I think they had another location in the city that closed.

Oh no! Well, if you reschedule for a time that happens to be pre-n00b I will happily attend.

Yep, actually this is probably a good postponement. NPR's "Hurricane Irene-a-thon" is freaking me right out.
Anybody think it's really going to be that bad?

well, I stockpile water and canned goods anyway out of generalized crazy, so that's not such a big deal, but I am seriously worried about the BOREDOM FACTOR
