oof

And you don't want to be the kid, like "Can we go now????"

thank god for texting. I was a bit immature after that

Oy

you are a good man, Mr D

Well, more "Are we going soon?" than "let me out now MEOW"

I honestly wanted to know.

Honestly, I hate socializing for exactly that reason...I can never tell when people are ready to go. Are they waiting for me, or am I waiting for them?

If I have to share transportation with them, that just makes it so much worse.

yessss

I didn't have the keys I can tell you that. 🙂

Last year, a friend arranged to go with me to the Renaissance Faire. He asked when we were leaving, and I said I'd rather meet him there, in case I tired out before he did. I got there...searched all over the place for him for HOURS...enjoyed the faire but never found my friend. Turns out he just decided not to go. rolls eyes

oof

So, sometimes the separate transportation thing pays off...and then there are times when people are assholes.

I mean, sometimes I flake late in the game, but I TELL people

or... I show up for ten minutes because I said I would, and then I run away. 😛

Yup. 🙂

Ha

But introverts who don't have their own vehicles...that must be agony.

I dream that TN gets better public transportation, because while I don't like being squeezed in with strangers it's at least a crowd that MOVES

Good point.

To be fair, Knoxville has a pretty good one considering it's the south KAT (Knoxville Area Transit) but it's pretty much center town areas only

Yeah, not the same as comprehensive mass transit.

Nope

sounds like we have better, and ours sucks

But I am in a legit city, albeit a small one

What, 186,239 doesn't count? 🙂

to be fair I live south of Ktown so 🙂

I am in another town completely

Youngstown is only, like, 67K

Don't worry, if Youngstrown strives it too can have a giant golden microphone as a landmark.

(We call it the Sunsphere. Simpsons would have you believe it holds wigs)

giggle That must be the voiceover capital!

hee

Snicker It did have a local website that made a faux cult about it "Oh glorious golden orb god, show mercy to our eyes and will will sacrifice a six pack of beer"

NICE.

Oh. Good lord

B. has asked us to set the DVR to record something for her.

"Dr. Phil"

well

it is her birthday

I know. Doing our level best not to say "You do know he's a quack right?"

Sylvi the optimist.

UGH...Dr. Phil.

She is!

And Dagmar is a fatalist.

Though I think she's less unseelie than she started

Well, she's scritching dogs. That helps.
