What I'm doing for the weekend
Maybe the last month of being sick, having allergies, and way too much work was just a way to give my liver a break before next weekend. It's time for the big annual event that puts the 'icious in me.
GB:NYC4
Mark, the organizer, has posted a schedule here.
My friend Mark started this event back in 2003, and I had been blogging less than a year. I was nervous about meeting people I had only known via their blogs, and I promptly got rip-roaring drunk. Now the blog is five years old, people I met there have become some of my best friends, and I just get rip-roaring drunk. I am planning on remaining vaguely sober, but plans often go awry, right?
Last year I was actually sober enough to post pics, and not drunk enough to drop trou.
I figure I'll be able to attend the Friday night event at Therapy, definitely Roller Disco on Saturday in Central Park, and possibly something on Sunday. For me, it is a rare opportunity to see old friends, meet new people, and laugh until the wee hours. My liver is glad it only happens once a year.
Wanna come and rub my head for luck?

You get rip-roaring drunk?
I hear it's good for allergies. That or too much work.

I wish you offered your head to rub before my AP exams.

Your head? Sure, that's a good place to start.

Alas, we'd already made plans before the big announcement.
:( Have a great time!

I'm sure it's just an oversight, but you forgot to mention a certain barbecue next Monday on Long Island. *hint, hint* (Subtle, aren't I?) :-)

I am going to be there, unless I finally get run down by an SUV driver before Saturday. I hope not to get too drunk since I have to head directly back after the Park, to do holiday weekend eating til I burst things with friends back here in Boston.
