If you've got good quality chocolate, you can just mince you poofy little arse over this way . . .
(I am flattered that Thomas used a separate post to mention meeting me!
)
One more thing about the Chicago gathering last May: Gus was too shy to meet everyone at Sublime's condo, but he was watching from across the street.
I have met a handful of a2k'ers, All scallywags and scoundrels except, of course, Thomas and Clary.
And the unforgettable Letty, of course.
I wonder if the occasion has ever arisen where two A2kers have passed in the night?
Or maybe shared an elevator together without realizing each others identity?
Or stood side by side in a grocery store, examining tv dinners and exclaiming, "Everything is so expensive nowadays!"
I believe I saw dys at the foot of a cactus as I burned through New Mexico last summer. The wind from my truck passing caused his hat to blow off and as I was becoming a speck in the distance I glanced in my rear view mirror and saw him knocking the dust off his hat and shaking his fist at me.

who's missing?
and then there have been phone calls with another dozen or so
more and less than I thought
Ossobucco, Eva, Mac, yitwail (Mrs. yitwail), realjohnboy, Occom Bill, wandel, J_B. BBB, roger, dys, Diane, Clary, Tamara, kitchenpete, c.i., prince, urs, Calamity Jane, Thomas, Francis, Steve (and Mrs. Steve), FionaB, McTag ... I hope, I didn't forget one (and more are to come next year!).
I've had the pleasure of meeting Osso, Francis, Lady Diane, Walter on the phone (when he was in New Mexico) and that scallywag scoundrel, Dyslexia.
There are many I would love to meet--you all know who are. I am afraid of meeting Letty for fear of losing control of myself

i know i've left out a few.
the nature of Bahstin gatherings is such that you don't remember much the next day...
Just adding that I met a couple of those mentioned above more than just twice or three times, and some usually at least twice per year for a longer period :wink:
Roger was soooooo drunk that he forgot that he met me.

Ah, JL and wandel. I was feeling so left out. Now I will be preening the rest of the day. :wink:
Phoenix, dear. You mentioned me in your first list. Big smile. You don't have to sit in the corner now.
I've met a TON.
Dag, Littlek, and Kicky.
