Emily | 266 comments Don't forget todays the day for the Rachelle Mead signing at 2pm (Bookpeople) and the meetup!
Details for the meetup: https://www.goodreads.com/event/show/...
Hope to see you there feel free to bring books for a swap!


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) | 124 comments I'll see whomever makes it to the signing, but I can't make the meet-up. My husband's schedule changed for Sundays and I'm skating the edge just having my teenager watch little minion for the signing.

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I'll be at the meetup :) See you later


message 655: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments I got stuck with a long shift and couldn't make it today. Would anyone be up to having a game night this week? I'm free any night expect for Tuesday night.


message 656: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments I could do Sat or Sunday


message 657: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments March 29th Sunday 2pm @ Genuine Joe's? If no one objects I'll call and get us a reservation - and make sure it's correct :)


message 658: by Rachelle (new)

Rachelle (fortifiedbybooks) Crap! I was planning on joining in this month and read the books, but that's the Boyfriend's Birthday, so there's no way I'm able to go.

Emily | 266 comments Welcome Liz! Let's do the game night! I could do this Tuesday (or wed) at Emerald Tavern (Burnet & 183 near Sherlocks). Would that date work?

So Saturday or Sunday is out? I'd still be up for those days as well. I could also doe Tuesday.


message 664: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Sunday would work as well


message 665: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments I'm up for either one. When does it work for Katie?

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I'm good any night this week ;)


message 667: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments What time tomorrow?


message 668: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I'm free anytime after around 2. You guys?


message 669: by Heather (last edited Feb 28, 2015 08:40PM) (new)

Heather | 175 comments I get off work at 7:30, so after 8 works best for me. Ugh, I thought I got off way earlier than that :/


message 670: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments Since we didn't quite get plans finalized for today, when works best for Tuesday? I'm free before 1:30pm and after 7pm.


message 671: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments 7ish would work for me


message 672: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments 7pm Tuesday works for me! See you at the Emerald Tavern. My brother might come play again.


message 673: by Liz (new)

Liz (wickedtruth73) | 2 comments My work schedule is weird atm, I will stay tuned and see when I can squeeze a drive up!


message 674: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments Geek and Sundry will be at SXSW! Here's a link with the info...so who wants to go play some games????

message 675: by Laura (new)

Laura (missllovesyou) | 11 comments I'm planning on playing some games! And drinking some beer and eating a vegan hotdog :) Saturday definitely works for me.


message 676: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I think I'll do the EXACT same thing! Also HBO is returning w/SXSWesteros, so I want to check that out again too!


message 677: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments Do we need a badge for this?


message 678: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments No, according to the Bangers website, it's free and open to the public!


message 679: by Laura (new)

Laura (missllovesyou) | 11 comments me thinks getting there early on Saturday is a good idea. Banger's usually opens at 11am on Saturdays, so I'm guessing that's when I will arrive.


message 680: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sflanagan19) | 127 comments I'm planning on driving in Saturday morning, so I'll be there before 11 prpbably and am planning on staying all day!


message 681: by Sandra (last edited Mar 12, 2015 08:31AM) (new)

Sandra (whatlovelybooks) I will definitely try to come and hang out. Is there a particular day and time that would be the best to try and have a meet up?


message 682: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I'm also going to try to get there as early as possible Saturday, but since Veronica and Felicia will both be there Fri/Sat, I might try to go for the 80's Dance Party on Friday night, too!

Thanks SO Much for posting this! I'm totally going to try and make Sat and possibly Friday night too, to get my groove on. *Praise the fact that no badge is required!*


message 684: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments Awesome Alana, I'll hope to see you there! Depending on my laundry situation, I'll probably be in a Boba Fett dress tomorrow ;)


message 685: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Working the weekend so I wont be there this weekend. Have fun guys!


message 686: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments I'm hoping to be there!


message 687: by Laura (new)

Laura (missllovesyou) | 11 comments Yay! It's going to be a fun weekend :)


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) | 124 comments Bonus- my hubby is also HUGE fan of Felicia (and tabletop gaming) so the entire family is going to be there tomorrow! If you see someone with long hair with blue ends chansing after a 6 year old crazy boy child... that's gonna be me. I'm probably going to wear my most recent 'Stop Looking at my Books' shirt.

I wish I had the where-with-all to remember to make an Ultimate Pi Day of the Century shirt, but I just don't think it's in the cards this late in the game.


message 689: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments How was it? I ended up at work instead.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) | 124 comments It was fabulous, and I briefly met a few other Reverse Cowgirls... but so many people were there that I lost track of them almost immediately. Was wonderful

Message me with questions!


message 692: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments I can't make it this weekend, boo! Hopefully I can show up sometime this year...

But Tiffany and I had an awesome time dancing with Felicia at the 80's party at the start of SXSW!




message 693: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments So cute!


message 694: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments Some of you expressed interest on Sunday in joining in on gishwhes this year, so here's some information on that!

Registration is open now, the hunt will be Aug 1-8, 2015, and everyone who registers before April 1 will get extra gishpoints, which can later be traded for...something. Misha has always been very mysterious about what.
gishwhes.com is where you register, and if you're interested in joining my team, it's "IntoTheHellmouth," which you have the option of joining during the registration process.
If you're interested in seeing the lists of tasks from previous years, you can peruse them here: http://almaasi.tumblr.com/tagged/gish...


A little info about the process: Our team mostly uses a FB group to communicate, which you will be invited to upon joining. We use a DropBox team folder to store the photos/videos, and while we're competitive, we're also about having the most fun possible! We would love to have anyone with a high shame threshhold, anyone with crafty skills, costumes, and a love for cosplay! Anyone who isn't easily embarrassed, or who is interested with photography/art. ALL are welcome, but the teams can only have 15, so the earlier you decide, the better. Lots of people can play and still work their jobs, but if you take some of the days off, I promise you won't regret that either ;)

Feel free to send me direct messages with questions, or find me on twitter @kittypryde716.
Thanks!

message 696: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sflanagan19) | 127 comments Katie, thanks for the info! I'm not sure I have a super high shame threshold, but I'm definitely thinking about joining your team anyway :-)

On another note, in September Chris Hardwick (of Nerdist Industries and the Nerdist podcast) is bringing his standup comedy to Austin! Is anyone interested in going? I'm thinking of buying my ticket soon before it sells out (a bunch of his shows in other cities are already sold out). If anyone wants to go too let me know!!

message 697: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to go to that....I just can't afford the $46 admission right now. I'm so bummed! If it doesn't sell out early, once I'm more financially stable I'll definitely join you :)


message 698: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments Also! Sat, April 11 is Tabletop Day! Anyone want to meet me @ Dragon's Lair? I have a really fun new game, Hot Rod Creeps, by the same makers of Epic Spell Wars, as well as the usual (Munchkin, Forbidden Island, King of Tokyo, CAH, etc..).
Usually there are Munchkin giveaways, new games to try, and streaming tabletop episodes.

Let me know if/when would be good!

I'll go. I'll have to wait to see what my schedule is for that (I'll know on the 3rd).

Depends on my husband's schedule, but he may even want in on this... I may not know for certain until the beginning of that week.
