Bebo, friendships can be real online. And just because it is not happening now, does not mean it will not happen. Might not part of a big wild party, but I would expect I could make TO and bus to Woodbine at some future date in time.
@trade actually paged me at Rama once, when she decided to attend a concert. They will only page people once. About a year later, we met and attended Bill Cosby concert I had tickets for. She's lovely, I bailed on meeting her last summer? Two summers ago? when she was passing through.
I've never been, and honestly, I don't expect I will ever attend, unless I won a contest, but going to the Meister Meet I am sure would be a blast.
@incrediblestuff meeting me in Amsterdam was meeting an old friend for the first time. Gave me a chance to meet CM and Maxd, bunch of reps, and I must say
@luckysox was not someone I was hoping to meet, but such a delightful man I hope it is not the last time we meet.
I've been here over a decade, it is hard to plan group meets, unless it is at an industry event. Atlantic City might be an option for a group meet-up for all the Eastern seaboard.
You really should talk to
@the Shamus . He's had a bit of a hiatus due to health issues, but he has planned meet-ups with other gamblers, and produces fun videos.
By the weekend, I should know if I am heading to Rama July 8th or 10th. It's been a while, I cancelled my birthday trip last year due to poor health, and I am antsy to go somewhere, if even for the day. That's about as far in the future I can plan. My best friend has been a little antsy too, she needs to wait for her work schedule. I think I will go one of those two dates, as I have no idea when I might be able to.
Alternately, Ottawa remains a possibility on the Tuesday or Thursday that week. My buddy would definely prefer Rama, but I think I might prefer the shorter bus trip.
