The only way we can top that is if Panthera and I conceive a child while we are in NYC. What do you say, Panthera?

Congrats, Bone! You're off the hook this time, but the whole "we're having a baby" card can only be played one time!

There are a lot of things that will be changing for me, and the cool thing is that I'm totally excited about all of them.

Some time soon, I know I will get to reunite with my old PAX buddies and meet the rest of you, but I have a family to plan for now! No need to crowd this thread with any boo-hoos or congrats, PM me if you like, I know I have the support of you guys. I'm disappointed I can't go, but not unhappy about it at all. I'm gonna be a kick-ass dad.
Awesome man. Awesome. Bone Jr...oh lord.

ADD and I have to drop out. We were really looking forward to seeing everyone but life stuff is getting in the way. No, life stuff not as big as Bone's news. Congrats Bone btw. Although ADD and I will probably be tying the knot after 9 yrs together...but still not as big news as Bone's.

I've taken Purple, ADD, Bone, Machenergy & his wife off the list. Sad to see you guys can't make it.

Purple Santa is one of four COGers (including ADDGirl) who know my physical address.

I was going to use this trip to make sure that he isn't a serial killer. Now I'll never be sure.

The real reason he and ADD aren't coming is so they can ransack your place while they know you won't be there.

You may be right.

I should make it very clear that my other roommates will be here. I will also be securing all of my valuables in another location.

So you're the woman then. I'm glad that's settled.

Can you imagine how awkward it's going to be if, when Mags and Panthera meet, there's absolutely no chemistry? YIKES!

So the following weekend, everyone is going to meet up in Washington DC, right?

Anyone know of any reasonably priced springtime walking shoes for NYC? Down here in FLA, we just wear sandals everywhere.

That's something I should consider as well. I've been wearing my blue Chuck's, but they are getting worn out and they aren't all that great for extended walks.

Whenever I've gone to NYC, I've worn hiking shoes, and I've always been happy with the decision. You end up walking a lot, and if you gamers are anything like me, you'll need the extra comfort and support. Sadly, not as fashionable as Chucks :\ Somebody just needs to bring back grunge fashion....
