I had a great time. The food was great and the company was even better. It was nice finally meeting some of you. I would have posted sooner but my pilfered internet service has been sketchy at best.
jim - 08/11/07 10:11
I'm so glad everyone had a good time!
paul - 08/10/07 14:19
Ya, thanks (e:jim) for setting this up - you are awesome. P.S. everyone her name is mya, no r
tinypliny - 08/09/07 20:36
If that little princess is Myra, I think I couldn't agree more with (e:James). :)
hodown - 08/09/07 14:23
That looks like soo much fun!!
james - 08/09/07 11:21
Thank you for setting this up Jim. It was a great time.

I am sure I have met scores of estrippers but can't remember because it was at an estrip party and I was too drunk to convert short term to long term memory. This was nice and sober.

And that Myra! I shall never love another woman as long as that sweet temptress walks this earth.
mrdeadlier - 08/09/07 10:39
Next time...
mrmike - 08/09/07 07:19
Looks like a hoot. Kinda wishing number one son and I weren't enscounced at the Fair at the same time.
drew - 08/09/07 00:37
I wish I was there. Stupid work! After reading your lives I would like to actually meet some people face to face!
leetee - 08/09/07 00:00
glad ya'll had fun! :O) maybe next time we can get our shit together enough so we can be part of a reservation...
jim - 08/08/07 23:31
Sorry to cut some people of you out of the photo, I wanted to get everyone in but didn't aim very well.
theecarey - 08/08/07 23:27

fellyconnelly - 08/08/07 23:21

MADNESS
I just made reservations for India Gate, I think 14 people are coming. Yikes, I am looking forward to seeing you all!

And once again I beg of you to bring cash, to make life easier when splitting the bill.

7pm tonight, see you there...
leetee - 08/08/07 18:51
uhm.... ok... well, maybe next time then.
imk2 - 08/08/07 18:42
i really wanted to make it, but cant. leaving on fri and have only today to wash and pack b/c tomorrow night is dinner with parents. sorry guys. have fun though.
jim - 08/08/07 18:24
in my original post I asked for people to let me know if they were coming I think, but it's ok to just show up, they'll just have to squeeze us all in and I think not everyone who told me they were coming is going to end up coming.
leetee - 08/08/07 18:06
i thought it would be cool to just show up. oops. can you add 2 to the reservations?
jenks - 08/08/07 17:45
sorry i can't make it guys... I was hoping to, but work just turned into a freaking disaster and I'm not even sure I'm going to make it home before tomorrow. :(

Brain Hurts
Category: work
Was up late last night dealing with:

And then today I had a long conversation at work with (e:Paul). I am so used to working alone for so long that I think the part of my brain that knows how to program is not hooked up to the part of my brain that knows how to use my mouth to speak.

It took so much energy out of me to try to speak about programming. I feel like I am dead. Different parts of the brain are like tinker-toys and connected in certain ways and doing new things is so taxing, even if the individual parts of the new things are old things.

It is nice to work somewhere that I have colleagues instead of just co-workers, I was really missing out on that intellectual sharing part of work before.
leetee - 08/08/07 12:36
yes, but do you communicate with each other in binary code?
paul - 08/07/07 20:45
Glad to have you here, discussing programming is what makes working fun!

Wednesday Buffet details
Category: estrip
Some more details:

7pm India Gate - Corner of Elmwood and Forest

Please bring cash. I think the buffet is $10 per person plus also there's tip, but if you want to drink then bring more. I don't think they'll split the cheque across multiple cards.

Parking lot is off Forest - there's a lot with meters, otherwise the side streets are good for a spot.

Everyone is welcome!
chico - 08/08/07 14:24
Ami and I will be there! Thanks for getting the ball rolling on this great dinner idea.
imk2 - 08/07/07 19:01
i think i will be there.
jenks - 08/07/07 09:38
I *think* the lunch buffet is 9.99....
james - 08/06/07 21:42
I believe the buffet is $12 +drink and tip.

Just so no one is surprised.
drew - 08/06/07 21:07
I'm taking kids to Darien lake, but if I can get them to leave (and/or if the party goes LATE) than I will see you.

Janelle, my wife who is an estrip lurker that does not post may stop by. Maybe you can convince her to start posting.

Update: I should remember to thank (e:enknot) for suggesting this as a gift, it worked out really well :)
fellyconnelly - 08/07/07 11:51

james - 08/06/07 20:53
GODAMNED FUCKING ZOMBIES KILLEDEDME AGAINAAAAAAAHHHHAAAHHHHA


thank you for the present love ^_^

Nothing says lovin like a horde of zombies!
jim - 08/06/07 20:40
The zombies just got him. He has to start over from the beginning...
fellyconnelly - 08/06/07 20:34
this picture is great. him sitting and playing while all of the packaging is strewn haphazardly about shows how great the gift is!
jim - 08/06/07 20:24
I have to make up for the iphone!
paul - 08/06/07 20:21
Wow, it is so nice that you guys buy gifts for each other. My bitches never buy me anything. In fact terry hates presents and occasions of any sort even when they are for him. He is such a humbug and matthew just doesn't seem to remember. Last year for my birthday I got nothing from by boyfriends. Thank god for my thoughtful friends and family members.
jim - 08/06/07 20:19
He is playing some game where he kills zombies right now, he is so happy :)
mrdeadlier - 08/06/07 20:10
I think my wife needs to start hanging with (e:enknot). Gotta figure out how to work that out...
