Yeah, it's time. Your Sovereign Princess declares it. Plus we have new spags that need to kill a pineapple.
I say we just do a downtown Providence bar crawl. I haven't been to Murphy's in a while. And then we can invade my job, drink them out of Narragansett and try not to fall into the icy, polluted rivers.
We can't let England out do us, of course.
Oh, and if we start early, of COURSE we can all take the train into Boston and see what happens. :mrgreen:

Well, as much as I'd like to I probably won't be able to make it on any day people would consider drinking heavily. Sundays and Mondays are my day off, and I don't get out on Saturday until 11pm.
So have fun fuckers.
Although if anyone gets an ambulance ride to a hospital in my county I could technically be part of the festivities.

The Feast will do that. On purpose, too. It's how they supplement the Madeira wine.
On a Sunday I would make a concerted effort to go.
But don't come to New Bedford. Everyone here has harpoons and they practice using them in abandoned mills. There are enough mills for every resident to have their own, with such ample space we've learned to wield the devices to deadly efficiency. It's part of our rite to be able to call it New Bedfid. I've seen old Portuguese ladies wearing shrouds use this skill to reach cans of vegetables above their heads, which is more than four feet, in the supermarket. Junkies that hover near our unprotected port convert theirs into syringes to mainline, but it's okay because they've each got their own so they don't have to share. Generally everything that can be picked up and moved with moderate effort is instead harpooned and attempted to be trebucheed over the shoulders of the person using it, so there's shit flying about our heads with relative frequency, ranging from garbage men picking up our trash to mothers moving their children from minivans, none of which are later than the model year 1999. Some guy once asked for his friend to hand him his harpoon, so his friend harpooned his harpoon and then tossed it over head, nearly harpooning the guy in the process - or so the legend goes.
Anyway, fuck New Bedford.
I ENDORSE THIS COURSE OF ACTION
Although I also endorse coming to Boston and stickering/flyering the fuck out of this place. WE NEEDS IT.
I'll join in spirit.
We really should have hologram machines by now.
I propose the Great St. Valentine's Day Massacre. That is, unless you all want to be "romantic" with your significant other. GS just gave me a look when I suggested it so...
Unless I trip into glassy eyed devotion or copious weird sex in the interim, I will attend.
I am hoping that if I trip into glassy eyed devotion or copious weird sex, it'd be the kind of thing I could bring along to the meat up.
Girlfriend would kill me.

That's enough commie-psycho-babble-horseshit from the two of you!
We burn those VHS tapes of Fern Gully.
And the next furry blue thing I see at a con is going to get a taste of the back of my hand.
I'm thinking to rent out / rebrand a nudist camp for the fandom sect.
Selling woad will be invovled too, we use SCA connections to get it in bulk, marketed as the "green produced, all natural costuming supply" to the campers.

I have no excuse not to go except school duties and being a broke ass. Updates as these conditions change.
Or, likely, worsen. :x
Stupid divorces.
We're all broke asses and goddamn school duties... I expect by the end of February, I'll be desperately ready for a respite.
A RESPITE WITH SPAGGOTRY!
Seriously, inside-out Burger King crowns decorated with our own stuff.
Oh yeah, that whole Jesus thing would be a great idea in the summer...but this is New England, and I don't think the temperature next month is going to be much different than it is right now.

I don't see why. Going out on the 13th means you can start Valentine's day at 12:01.
If you don't like Valentine's day, you can drink heavily and sleep through it.
If you
do like Valentine's day, then Monday is a federal holiday, and you can do your Corporate-Mandated-Showing-Of-Affection ritual on Sunday, and still have the next day off.

I detest Valentine's Day. Herbert was aware of this and we never really did anything special. General Stuart, on the other hand, demands I leave the weekend free. There's also a high possibility that we could be moving that weekend. So we'll see.
Peg GS on Friday, leave him tied up with a vibrator in his ass on Saturday and come see my band, then go back home, untie him, and have a lovely Sunday together before pegging him until Monday's sunrise.
LMNO
-Just a suggestion.
Oh fine. I'll see what I can do. But you owe him coming to see his band now.

No, it's a horrible day before there's a party that night.
I am utterly nonchalant about Valentine's Day. I find people's intense animosity to it as distasteful as people's obsessive adoration of it. It's just a day. Do with it what you will.
I am going to a party on it, is all.
Solution: Bring the party to the show.
I'll buy the first round.
Aw, to hell with this.
I'm going to sleep that day with a handful of shrooms and a bottle of beam.

Richter still has the bottle from when I got him Crystal Head vodka for his birthday. There's a thematic opportunity here, if we try.
But even if we don't want to bother, I'm looking forward to hanging out and drinking with everybody. Wintry months need more events like this, imo.
