It's been years since we had a Jersey City mefi get-together, would anyone be interested in having one before the cold weather really sets in? -- Opting for the Rasoi weekend buffet this time, Sunday 12/2 barring terrible weather. [more inside]

I'm pretty introverted and strangers make me nervous, so I always think about going to meet ups and then back out. Mostly because on top of all that, it seems I have to travel into New York which can get expensive and traveling there by myself freaks me out. So maybe if I changed one of the two issues I'd have better luck is what I'm thinking. Meet up with less scary travel. [more inside]
