Diesel Cafe MeetUp
Jul. 16th, 2004 12:36 pmLast night was a little meetup at
diesel_cafe that we decided to hit up at the last minute.
being_homeless organized it as a support of sorts for Diesel, since apparently its lease is in jeopardy (sans Alex Trebek) due to upbidding by a national chain. It was a pretty good time, except that all things money give me anxiety these days as the savings dwindles further into oblivion - so when the peeps decided to head to a restaurant for snackies, I figured it was time to go home. I offered Jen the opportunity to stay, but she wanted to leave with me. Sweet - I got the girl!
I met some pretty cool peeps, including
virgomochabeing whom Tim talks about all the time (although, with Tim's accent, I thought her name was 'virgomochabean' all this time), and
kaiaroo. There were some other people, too, including a girl named Stephanie and a boy named (I think) Aaron. They have LJs (because really, who doesn't? right
zuzubailey76?) but I don't know what their names are. Some people from various Somerville newspapers came to write a little article and ended up taking a lot of close-up photos. So perhaps I will be a \m/ Somerville Rockstar \m/ or something. (But I didn't want to give the dude my last name. He said I had to. But I get nervous about giving my last name around because I don't really ever want, say, clients to find me out of work.) Someone will have to check the Somerville News (Somerville Journal? Somerville Times? Whatever) and see if I'm famous!
Speaking of famous,
Natt was admiring my 'the binary gender system sucks' tshirt and it gave me an opportunity to pimp my favorite
technodyke! (Dear gods, S, I have such a goofy rockstar teenage crush on you.)
I forgot my camera, though, so couldn't take any photos. But Crystal did!
p.s. I want that job.
p.p.s. I think I'm getting a bit of a cold.
p.p.s.s. I miss our old
columbus meetups at Vic's.
