Which days are you in Los Angeles? I believe I've sailed on the Sapphire Princess. It would have been a few years ago though
Yeah. He's my hero.

EpicTangent, I will be in San Diego in two days. Not sure how much time I'll have off, but - I'll be there on Thursday!
Let me know! Maybe we can get dinner or something! (Debate Lex v. Bray, maybe. ;)...Now really hoping I remember right that you were the other shamefaced Tribe fan).

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
zuisa, what ND said. Let us know when you're going to be in LA.

Zuisa, I didn't realize you live in MA, you should meet up with some of the local buffistas next time you're back here.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)
I would love to meet up with Massachusetts people!!! I will also compile a list of the dates I'm in L.A. We actually dock in San Pedro, and I never have too much time off, but I usually can swing a couple hours. Turnaround Day is BUSY.
Epic, I am most certainly the other shamefaced Tribe fan. I won't be free for dinner, though, I'll only possibly have a couple hours off in the afternoon. I think we sail in the early evening!

Yep. I'm familiar with the San Pedro terminal. I also know how crazy turnaround days are but I'd be happy to just meet for lunch or coffee.

Not a lurker, but I certainly don't post as much as I used to. I think. I'd need hard numbers to verify.
This thread made me realize that I've lost almost 20 pounds since this time last year, which is pretty great. Still living in Chicago, still at the same job but probably much better at it, provided I don't hear differently at my annual review. My eating habits are even healthier now. I exercise every day, and I have tricked myself into looking forward to it because I listen to funny podcasts when I work out.
I went to London for the first time after not having crossed the Atlantic since I was 19, and saw me some Shakespeare. I'm about to go to Hawaii for the first time in less than two weeks!
I'm working on my time management skills, because I need them to be better for work and to carve out more time for fandom.
My grandmother died earlier this year, and the ensuing family drama has been impressive in its pettiness and stupidity. Several family members have joined the Tea Party, and I have somehow refrained from punching them in the neck. I also got a second niece. She's pretty cute, and for some reason her big sister seems to like me a lot even though I'm not around much.

Still here, still lurking, still show up at various Buffista functions in the company of the incomparable Beth B, and constantly appreciate the ~ma which has been directed our way from time to time.

Hiya, Matt! I'm glad you checked in!

This is Thursday afternoon? Yeah, not likely I can make it downtown before evening. Aw, sadface. Next time, though!
