DFW''ers assemble! DFW GTG - Northpark Mall, then on to the WTC - Oct. 25th!

[LaurenThePartier]

Hi again all of my sweet little DFWers!

Thought it was time for a new thread to start getting us all together for this GTG! I'm dying to finally meet everyone, and hope this works out still for everyone.

Day - Saturday, October 25th
Where - meet at one of Northpark's restaurants for lunch - reservation under "PRICESCOPE" and "Lauren". Choices include:
Kona Grill
Luna de Noche
Maggiano's
McCormick & Schmick's
P. F. Changs
When - around lunch time . . . 11:45 am - 12:00 pm? Does that work for everyone?
What - window shopping at Northpark, and possibility of getting WTC Vendor passes courtesy of the handsome John Pollard if we can get a final count to him soon!

I'm setting up a poll for the restaurant options, just so we can figure out where to meet and eat and start the photoshoot and ring swapping!

Can't wait to finally get this thing going! It's been far too long to have been PSers without having a GTG!

 

[iwannaprettyone]

Yeah, Yeah... that was me voting!


Very excited to meet you all!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Well, I don''t have any preference, but my first thought was PF Chang''s, and for some reason I accidentally clicked Kona Grill.

Oops - I have fat fingered my way through today!

How are you doing? Wedding''s getting CLOSE!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Oh, and The Intergem show is October 10th at Market Hall - I''m thinking of going. . .

Anyone want to have a mini-GTG?

 

[iwannaprettyone]

Doing great, thanks for asking. Suprisingly calm, still not sleeping much though.

Bachelorette is TOMORROW... I am uber excited!

How are you and hubby?

 

[OUpearlgirl]

For some reason it won''t let me vote in the poll.. But I have no preference on meeting location! I''m just excited to meet you all!

Awesome! TOMORROW?!?!?!? Where are you and your girls going? Or have they kept you in the dark?

Hubby and I are great - planning a short trip to Paris in November . . .maybe.

The poll gave me a hard time, too - but, I suppose we''ll just try to find some kind of concensus.

All I want to do this time is to have a reserved table so we can ll find each other!

I''ve actually never been, and we have a friend heading over there at the same time, so we''ve just decided to tag along. I lived in London for several months, but never made it to Paris.

I should probably pay for the trip soon - that flight is bound to be full shortly.

 

[NeverEndingUpgrade]

I CAN''T COME! My son has a 1pm baseball game and no one else to take him. AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!

Yes they fill up quick..


Neverendingupgrade: OH NO!!!!

 

[somehowcollide]

SO JEALOUS! I have a mandatory meeting and won''t be able to make it. We should end around 7 pm though... not sure if you all will still be hanging out...

 

[LaurenThePartier]

You know, we could always change the date to Sunday, October 26th?!?!?!

Too many people I was hoping could make it just can''t on Saturday. I don''t want to have a repeat of February . . .

 

[jcrow]

JCrow - wait, I thought you were in Houston!?!?

I think Curiopotter may be coming up for this GTG, if I''m not mistaken.

 

[NeverEndingUpgrade]

I''m out for Sunday too. Boy Child has another baseball game. Yes, it''s a baseball weekend. I''ll hopefully meet up with you all sooner than later. Sounds like fun!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Bump for the weekend!

 

[everlong_x]

Man oh man, I wish I could go to meet everyone! That''s my hubby''s birthday.

I hope you all have tons of fun!!

You're tooo sweet Lauren, but my volunteer group flies in from all over the country and since we don't get to meet in person very often our meetings take up the entire weekend; I wouldn't be able to make it on Sat either..

ETA: Maybe you could starting a running list of Attending/Not Attending (this time)/Undecided

 

[March-8-2008]

I can attend either day but will need some advance notice to coordinate it with my work schedule. I want to be CERTAIN of having that day off!!

I'm so looking forward to meeting all of you! I mean, meeting y'all.

 

[March-8-2008]

P.S. Lauren, thank you (and John Pollard!) for coordinating the logistics!

 

[Upgradable]

I''m still planning, though I''ve no preference for restaurants. OUpear, do you want to carpool?

I''d love for John to get us passes. That would rock!!! (pun intended)

Call it scheduled - OCTOBER 25th - if you need me to call one of your managers for you, I''ll be happy to, Anne!

Yay, I''m so excited!!!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

OK, so far as coming or very solid "Maybes", I have . . .

Me - Lauren
Katie
IWPO - Kathryn
OUPearGirl
March-8-2008 - Anne
Upgradeable

Also, forgive me, but I don't know everyone's first names yet!

I need a final count so I can get the passes from John by about the 12th or so.

 

[OUpearlgirl]

Upgradable- possibly. I might be coming down for the whole weekend and staying with my parents. If that were to happen I don'' know if we could carpool.

But, if I come down for a shorter time I would love to carpool!

 

[Upgradable]

Lauren, I''m Melissa.

Nice to meet you!
