I wish I could go!!! I hope you all have fun. <3
That's still a bit far for someone who doesn't have a car. I wish I could go but, I don't think I can this time around.
Hopefully, I can make it
@ctaretz - thanks for the response!
@Binh_Bong - HOPEFULLY!
@EmilyandAtticus - I wish you could go too. :c
Awww. It sounds like it would be fun.
*teleports to the USA!* I will... be there in spirit.
If I hadn't already made plans for that day, I'd totally come.
--Yao Wentiao
If I send you a life sized card board cutout of me, will you bring it with you?
I will see you there.
Considering Dan is going to be there, shouldn't there be more enthusiasm on the part of xangans? I am ashamed. I would love to come and get to know all of you, east coaster.
@RulerofMasons - I think the problem is there is basically no one in Illinois.
Hmmm, yes, no where near IL, but I would imagine this meetup is for people that have been on Xanga a while too. Sounds fun all the same, hope you all have a good time.
Aww man, Cleveland didn't even make it on the map. You kids have fun and behave, maybe I'll come and drink another day.
Hope you all have fun. Just meeting Dan would be interesting for me. Ok ok, you too @Shimmerbodycream. hehehe
My car would probably die halfway there or I would go ;( you guys have fun though!!
Somebody wants to buy me an airplane ticket?
IF ONLY I HAD MY OWN VEHICLE! I wish I could go
@Thatslifekid - Eff it. We're going to make our own kick-ass Cleveland meetup! No one could say no to meeting the both of us!
i'm still a maybe
An hour and 45 minutes - not too shabby =] just not sure I want to come alone....
@xXrEMmUsXx - are you afraid we will murder you? We are kinda nice, I swearz.
@Marica0701 - True that. I know Victoria and the pinkglitter02 girl live in the next town over. Is matty gone yet?
Oh, Wow! That's only 150 miles away from me! And I'd love to meet you and any other Xangans there! But I cannot be away from here for that long 'cause I have obligations. Hope y'all have a GREAT Time!
Jerry
@ShimmerBodyCream - LOL - no... not at all!!! BUT... if none of my friends around here hear from me by Monday - call the police =]
@xXrEMmUsXx - HEHEHE
Are you flying??? @TheTheologiansCafe I want to go! 550 is what a flight is right now - I should have been watching this weeks ago.
sounds like a super gay time. wish I could be there.
Have fun midwesterners.
Such a shame that I didn't know about it earlier. (Saw this just now). I live in Quincy which is about two hours from Dwight, and we cross it every time we head to Geneva or Elgin. Dang, I wish I had known about this earlier. I should have one here next summer. Hope you all have a wonderful time there. Will look forward to seeing some photos.
I cant make it i dont have a vehicle wish i could make it:)
@Thatslifekid - Matt ships out at the end of February, I believe, so we've got some time
BOOO! I wish I lived there.
I'm going to be like an hour from there on the 24th
@amateurprose - That means if you don't come you're a huge douche!!!!!
Actually that's a huge lie. I will be at home in D.C. haha. That would be awesome though
@amateurprose - I h8 u
@ShimmerBodyCream - hahaha
I'd love to go and meet Dan and Shimmer....but alas, too far from me. Maybe if you guys had done an Indiana meet-up. Oh wellz.
ok... i THINK i can go. i wish i had seen your message sooner, then i would have told ya to have it in Springfield. but Dwight works too. are y'all staying the night?
@flapper_femme_fatale - No, neither of us are staying. dan is just driving through and I'm driving up.
@ShimmerBodyCream - @flapper_femme_fatale - I might actually be staying the night in the area because it will be hard for me to go very far after the xanga meet.
@TheTheologiansCafe - Fail on my part. Orgy at Dan's hotel.
I wish I could meet two of my favourite people on here. <3
You bring the alcohol. I will bring the midgets.
@EmilyandAtticus - That would be the perfect threesome. :c
Hmm that is like 280 miles for me. Someday...
@Marica0701 - @Thatslifekid - Did someone say Cleveland?
@GreekPhysique - Heck yes! Well, I live in a 'burb north of Akron, but Cleveland is only 50 minutes away from me Are you near or in Cle?
@Marica0701 - My brother works in Akron, so I'm not far from there when I come back during break it's feasible!
@GreekPhysique - Well, if you happen to know Stow or Kent, I'm in the small town with them. Akron is like a 10-minute hop on Route 8 South for me.
I think I met you at the July 2010 NYC Meetup... I was Cestovatelka at that time, but I changed usernames in October.
Well shoot, Chicago is about 8 hours from me but I've never been there and always wanted to see it - had I know about this meetup sooner I would have planned a short vacation to the area. :( Have fun everyone!
Where are the meetup pics? I feel certain that you have killed Theo and taken over his blog.
@amateurprose - None of us brought a camera!
Phones have cameras. I'm on to you.
@amateurprose - my phone isn't even in the same state as I am, ha ha
