Seriously tempted to make the drive down to PVD tomorrow -- we've got so many Boston Jezzies, but the last meetup was four months ago and my commenter account hadn't been approved yet...

It all depends on whether or not I can find a clean pair of pants that I don't have to hem. I don't want y'all thinking I'm dirty and/or footless.

D'oh!! Why am I always out of town for these? I guess it's good in that I can pretend I would be totally psyched to go and not at all self-conscious.

One of these days...

I'm so excited for this! It's been odd trying to let my roommate and a friend I'm meeting up with later tomorrow know about it though.

"I'm going to meet up with some people from the internet. They're cool ... we talk about feminism and look at pictures of cats. I mean, what?" But yeah, it's going to be fun :) And I've never been to Trinity Brewhouse so that'll be nice. It also gives me an excuse to stop at the Lush store in the Providence Place Mall.

Once again, I am a loser. I do not live close enough to drive or crawl to either meet-up. Once again, southeastern Virginia is lame. Crap.

I will be in NYC next Friday for the day, then Boston on Saturday, but nooooo...no meet-ups then.

@bananastand: I don't know if you're in NYC or RI, but I've been to NYC meets and they are lots of fun. Not scary. If good conversation and booze are fun for you, definitely go! Bonus, once you go to your first one, you'll never have the weird anxiety of finding people you've never met before.

@hfree: Last time I made a giant pope hat out of manila folders and markers and tape. It had a big panel that said "TSCHEESE!" on one side and a big cut-out of a cheese wedge on the other.

It, um, got people's attention.

I'm not doing that again, though.

Hmm... I'm driving from DC to Boston tomorrow. I wonder... If I took 95, would I hit Providence while there are still Jezebels hanging out? Quite possibly, but my mom doesn't want me to go that way, because 95 is just a little crazy sometimes. So I probably will be skipping RI altogether- Merritt Parkway to 91 to 84 to the Mass Pike?

@CollegeBookworm: It depends when you hit Providence. There is an exit, right on 95, that heads to Trinity Brewhouse.

I'm sure everyone will be there throughout the afternoon.

PM me if you have questions or want further information!

Pro: It does a lot for my tenuous self-image as a non-alcoholic to get drunk with company rather than alone in a cold room lit only by a bare bulb.

Con: I actually have to get up and physically transport my weary, sleep-deprived carcass there. This is a very difficult decision.
