Very well! We will meet for our Baltimore get-together on Friday the 13th of May, 2005 (auspicious!). This will be at the Arundel Mills Mall, south of Baltimore around exit 10 of Rt 100. If you are on Interstate 95, take Rt 100 East (more like southeast). If you are on Interstate 97, take Rt 100 West. Arundel Mills is not far from the airport.

We will meet in the approximate center of the food court. Since various folks might take different times to get there, I may wander in and out, as I have a limited attention span, but I suppose that I’ll hit the meeting place on every half-hour, starting at… when?

Perhaps those folks coming could indicate when they would expect to arrive (then we could maybe add an hour, for the expected unexpected traffic jams).

Well, I will probably show up starting at 5:00 or 5:30 pm. It would be most convenient for all of us to eat in the food court or some restaurant in the mall. However, if Mal-licious commands it, we must set out on Crab Quest. To be fair, we will need to set a time that we are going to dinner, or perhaps even warn folks where this restaurant will be. I’d hate to miss somebody who came a little late. Perhaps this needs more thought.

Anyway, those of you attending may recognize The Real Me by the description in his profile, by pictures linked to by the “Cincinnati, Meet the Real Me” thread from this latest Christmas (though I now have a beard), or, failing all that, by the fact that I’ll be the one wearing the t-shirt that says “The Real Me”.

I don't know....that's still kind of vague.....What if I wore a TheRealMe shirt as well? Chaos!

I guess I can tolerate the mall. But if someone brought me a half dozen steamed jumbo males (CRABS that is), I would NOT complain. (A feat unto itself!)

Any chance we could meet earlier than 5:00?

I could probably meet earlier, as I expect my class to let out sometime around noon, but I'm guessing some other folk might have to work or something.

Say, Mal, do you really want to meet earlier? We will need to wait, regardless, for others to show up after their work (if any others do show up).

I don't know! I'm done work at 11:00am and will go home for a bit (to let the dog out and feed him and such) but I want to leave enough time to find my way after getting lost. So, I'm thinking 4:00- ish? At the mall? In the food court? By the Cinnabon place? (there just HAS to be one)

Whaddya think?

Hmm, so is this meetup open to all local Browncoats then? I may be able to make it. And any excuse for steamed crabs is a good excuse

Hate to rain on your parade Mal, but the Cinnabon closed about 6 months back. Don't know why. Really pissed me off.

TRM - I can probably hit the mall right around 6, given that I get off at 5 and work an hour away from the mall.

The more the merrier.

While this did start out as part of my multi-phase plan to win Mal-licious' heart, and it was to involve a date at Home Depot, I can see how she might be getting all creepified over this.

(That just means the plan has to go subtle!)



Please, everyone is encouraged to participate.

Mal, I'll see if I can get there around 4pm. Probably no big deal.

Let's go for the approximate middle of the food court for starters.

And we will wait for the stragglers. Of those folks who might come, could you give an estimated time of arrival? We need to know when to take the group photo, after all!

Oh, I have an idea! We could meet at the food court and then go to a crab place and leave a clue as to our whereabouts for those who come after us! Perhaps something in code. Like:

"Browncoats! Went to crab place called "(insert name of crab place)" and the address is "(insert address of crab place). Meet us there. Signed Mal-Licious, TRM, Soul, Gonzai, and Static who drove 5 hours for this because Mal-Licious offered him a dollar."
