So I gave lindsay a homework assignment that she has totally dropped the ball on. So here it goes.
January is coming up in a few months. Nerdfest should happen in that month. I think it would be a lot of fun. it has been the past two years i've attended anyhow. Besides, the hotel is five minutes from my apartment now. Mighty convenient that be. Also, Dave has moved to the ATL and i understand there are a few others around here now as well.
So i guess this is the announcement. Let's make this happen again. Voice your thoughts on this matter.
that is all...

I was totally in the middle of creating a thread. I just write in a much wordier fashion than you do.

by the way, for those that do not know, Wenchcon was/is a gathering that has happened in the Atlanta area the past 3 years. well, no date has been set, january was just tossed around loosely over the weekend. suggest when a good time would be? i personally would prefer it in the beginning of the year.

Yeah, and this will be more clumpish, maybe, than in the past. For example, I doubt Jenny Gardener will be able to attend what with having a three month old baby and all.
She'd like to have the Wenches at her may revel, but we'll have to talk to her about that more later.
For US, that means the slate is clean -- no mandatory dressing up as elves or whatnot, just whatever you guys want to do in the Atlanta area. Low key, fun, and on neutral ground.
But Ophelia and the beninator are handling the specifics this year, mostly. I'm tired.

Well, we were thinking MLK weekend again, which would make it something like Friday the 13th (oooh, spooky!) to Monday the 16th for those who have or can get MLK day off, but we are definitely not set on that date and will take suggestions. Posts: 3801 | Registered: Jan 2000

I would really like to attend this one, but it depends on how my financial situation is at the time. Posts: 1225 | Registered: Feb 2002

You may have KQ's gracious presence if it is AFTER we get our tax refund.
And from what I am reading, more people might be able to go if it is later due to current finances.
So everyone file their returns early and set it up for Late February or something...just a suggestion.

I would like to come, but I am not sure I will be able to get up there. Atlanta is only about a 4 hour drive from Valdosta, but I am carless.

No, you don't. And if we show up and you do not, I will thump you soundly about the head with a stout stick.

I could actually make it for New Years Eve or Day. I'll be home in NC til the 2nd of January, it's only 3 hours from Atlanta, and I have several relatives in that area. (And since I didn't read the whole thread again, looks like that won't work for many other people )

(See, Ben, you should have waited for me to post my super-thorough thread. It was going to have everything! Unfortunately it was also going to take me a bajillion years to write it.)

Jamie, you have NO right to be chastizing me! Last time I made an effort to hang with you and hubby, you flaked out! Remember? Jersey? John's house? "I'm too tired to drive a couple more hours"?
That being said, if there's a NerdFest here in the ATL area, I'll be there.
I only attend the Even Numbered WenchCons.

I'd love to come, but the timing's not good. I'm still playing catch-up from my trip to Detroit, and don't expect to have much spare cash for a while. Plus, both my sisters are expecting, and are due late December/early January. I want to be home when the newest kidlets arrive. Posts: 1805 | Registered: Jun 1999
