But very possibly in Los Angeles at the end of June, so maybe a mini-F2F there?
I think that's pretty much guaranteed.
Also, total aside, but I talked to the guys about the sooper seekrit project and you should be getting a bunch of stuff from me soon!
psssst, billytea
come visit us when we gather
there's an aquarium nearby in Mystic! not a zoo, but we can take a field trip!

Ok. Where are you gathering again?
Hee. And slumbernut. Note how effortless it looks.
Oh yeah, that's another one. I got to totally geek out about music with billytea more than once over the weekend and that was too. damned. cool!
The Mystic Aquarium has a penguin encounter program where you get to pet a penguin and listen to its heart with a stethoscope. It's a way of helping them acclimate to people and thus make the vet visits less stressful.
Penguins like to untie people's shoes. It's painfully cute.

Lee, I think it's that weekend, in fact, but I'll have to check at work tomorrow. It's some conference during the week that I'm tacking a weekend onto.
Damn. Hopefully I will be able to see you during the week.
I'd love to go to an aquarium with billytea. The zoo was fun but for me the best part was the invertebrate section and I think billytea skipped that for the monkeys.
I wasn't really fond of the insects but they had various sea life there and as I told DebetEsse and possibly a few other people, land animals just don't get me as happy and as excited as aquatic life.
If anyone wants to pay for the food (dead broke), I'll cook it.
I'd contribute to a foodathon at Deb's. Maybe we can lure some LAistas up for a munchdown.

So. African penguins. Yeah, that works for me. Yes, that was wholly redundant. Any penguin species would've worked for me.

The drive from Philly would be 4 hours, if all goes well. Not sure of the odds, there. I might be tempted to fly into Providence and drive from there.
When is this for again?
