Sean- You are always talking about meeting up at FSC's and whatnot, so I thought I would give you a heads-up on this. Tomorrow, a number of DetroitYes folks will be meeting up at Fort Wayne for Civil War Days. You are welcome to show up as you may meet some of the folks that you have wanted to hook up with. It will be a good opportunity for you to do just that. See the Civil War Days thread on the Discuss Detroit side for more info. Cheers! |

I was thinking of calling you Jams, but I somehow knew you wouldn't be able to make it. So many are coming down, so I will be bragging about the fine work that you do on our Window Restoration team as I give them a tour through the QM's shop. You will certainly be there in spirit if not in prescence,as always. You have certainly left a bit of yourself at that place with all of your hard work and dedication to the preservation of the place. Have a great day tomorrow and we will see you soon! |

I paged you because you are always asking when we ae getting together and how you can meet some of the other forumers. This is an opportunity for you to do that, but apparently........ Keep trying, and maybe one day you can find the time for the rest of us. Also, keep checking here, as many times we get together at the last minute and we don't make long standing plans for those who have as tight a schedule as it appears you have. Our lives are pretty busy as well, so we count on contacting each other at the last minute(in most cases, just like the fireworks)to get together when we can. Although Thursdays are generally the rule, you can see that we remain flexible enough to fit in events like this to get together as well. Just a few words of advice. If you want to meet anyone here, be a bit more flexible and you just might get your wish. |

Did anyone else hear Roseann Roseannadanna's voice reading Sean's final denial of desire to join us today?! I've been working on my yoga, is my flexibility showing? |

It was Emily Litella that said 'Nevermind' in that nasal voice, not Roseanna Roseannadanna |

Sorry guys, it was a family thing. It was one of those things that I couldn't get out of, nor should I have tried. It was one of those. I wanted to go more than you could know. I am sooooooo sorry. I really am. I know everyone's busy, my situation is kind of weird though. A lot of the time (as some of you know) I am marooned up in Saginaw. Even when I am in the D, I share a car with others.... leaving the oh so reliable bus and taxi services around here. We have a couple of places picked that we will be looking at in the CBD this week (right now I'm near New Center). Even if we don't chose any of the condos or nicer apartments we are scheduled to look at, we decided we will at least continue looking from a temporary apartment or rental house within walking distance of all this stuff. Keep planning stuff, and I'll keep trying to go... It will happen soon. As for my flexibility; I have been doing Yoga on Wii Fit for the past month, and so has Kally. It does keep yelling at us because we skip days sometimes... but we'll get it down eventually. Don't worry, I know I owe each of you a drink for all this... I really did not think in a million years I would be having this much trouble... it really is just constantly on those few exact wrong times/dates. Maybe the cosmos had a reason/plan for keeping us a part for a few weeks for some reason? LOL! Don't worry, I'm starting to get really determined now... Can you guys forgive me for missing this one...? (Message edited by Sean_of_Detroit on July 13, 2008) |

(Continued from Detroit Discussion's "Civil War" thread). So I'm hoping to swing by Fort Wayne this Weekend. I'm also planning on going to The Tiger Stadium Fundraiser on Thursday. Other than that, I should be on a very flexible schedule for you guys. I will handle most of my errands in the morning and eliminate my DYES/Internet and food brakes (I can eat while working). That way I will have my entire evenings open to meet people this week. The only thing is bus or travel time. So just give me buffer time to get there. I like the movie idea in the Non-Detroit section (should probably be moved here). Dinner or drinks would be nice. I'd be up for whatever. Bowling, coffee, pool, museums, concerts, operas, swimming, gardening, painting, or even just walking around. I'd love to do a picture taking walk around the CBD, or other areas. We could play craps at the casino, or board games in the park. Whatever! Big Slide? I'm in! Bar-b-que? I'm in! Chess? I'm in! Fishing? I'm in! Water Skiing? I'm in! Basketball, tennis, volleyball, baseball, bouche ball? I'm in! Skinny dipping on Belle Isle? Well, maybe not that one. But for anything else, I will probably be up for for the invite. |

Sean- July 26 is the next workday, from 9 to 5, just to let you know. It will be the next good time to meet some forumers, as the Window Restoration team will be hard at it. |

Thanks... Again, the issue is transportation. I share a car. Back when I started it, it was a great idea, as none of us had any unplanned events, and had no events not dealing with work. It's kind of hard to explain other than that, and I guess I can't expect any of you guys to really understand why I'm having such a problem... I'll be looking forward to the 26th. Sorry about all the problems. |
