DukeUsul mentioned an interest also.
I'm watching this thread with great interest. Whether or not I can make it will depend on where you guys settle and whether I can get loose from the hospital in time to make it. If you decide on a Raleigh location, I'll need good directions. They honk at me all over town there since I wander a lot! I do have "Our Lady of the GPS" who talks me through most things if I give her an address. Carry on. I'm watching to see where and what time you settle on and hoping to make it.
Love, Ima
Definitely hope you can join us. We are meeting at Casalinga, 4538 Capital Blvd,Raleigh, and then taking food to DD's house, which I know how to get to. If you'd rather meet us at DD's house, I'll PM you the address rather than post it here for all the world to see - you never know who might show up :lol: Your GPS should be able to find either location.

Give my best vibes to Ima'sDaughter.

I'm leaving the office at 5pm, should be at my car by 5:20, then head to the airport to pick up DinK. We should be at Casalinga between 6 and 6:30. Will call you in route.

That'll work. Hopefully DinK's flight will be on time.

What do y'all want on your pizza(s)? I would like peperoni, mushrooms and chunks or slices of tomato. I'll call and order for takeout about 6. Assuming 16" pies (I'll ask when I call), 2 enough or should we get 3?

My count:
Me, Tilly, K68, DinK, DD, Mrs. DD and hopefully Ima. Maybe 2 large and a medium?

Check with Mrs. DD to see if any DD offspring will be there, and then go from there. I completely trust your judgment. I wouldn't be the president and life-time member of your fan club if I didn't. ;) ;)

My plane damn well better be on time!

I'm fine with your pizza choice.

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Slight change in plans. Just had a call from Mrs. DD. He's under the knife now. DD's surgeon told him that "you are not eating pizza tonight, and you are not to entertain a group of people tonight." So let us just eat at Casalinga - or Tilly if you want the Ale House at Briar Creek, that would be fine with me and closer to the airport (and home) for you - call me, then you can post here so Ima will know where to meet us - guess you have her phone number? I don't. I'm heading up to Raleigh in a minute and won't have email access until later tonight. All further communication with me will be by cell phone. We'll call DD during dinner and see how he's doing.

Due to the slight change in plans, we're going to meet at Carolina Ale House in Brier Creek around 5:30/6:00.

Devildeac, sending vibes everything goes well tomorrow. Perhaps we should call before coming over, just to make sure you're up for visitors.[/quote]

Surgery is scheduled for 1 PM at Rex tomorrow and should take about an hour or less. I hope to be home shortly after 4 PM and at a keyboard shortly after 5 PM. :oops: :roll: :))[/quote]
Happily it sounds like a short adventure but best of vibes anyways. Get a doctor's note so you can get out of work. :D[/quote]

I am in practice by myself and couldn't help but think of this:

From the comic, Shoe, from a couple years ago:

So, do you like being your own boss?
Nah.
Why not?
Well just last week I had to kiss my own butt just to get the day off...
:)) :)) :roll: :roll:

Bummer. Hope everything goes well and they don't take off anything important ;)

What's the Ale House down the road from you?
Surgery went well. No missing parts... :roll: ;)

More later.

How about a Drink-n-Dial call on Friday night?
That would certainly work. :D

And a nice dinner was had by all, followed by a short visit to DD's house to wish him well in his recovery.

Thanks for a great time at dinner. I have now met Tilly, Ozzie, Ima, Knights67, Devildeac, Mrs. DD, and one of the Daughter DDs. A good start on meeting people - but many more on my list.

Has anyone seen my wife and daughter? ILJ and LL are with the devildeacs at the beach for today and maybe tomorrow. Maybe they can bump up your list of CT'ers you have met.

It's hard to keep track of my wife and daughter from all the way out here, but hopefully they may see you as well.
Cheers,
Lavabe

I have seen your wife and daughter. :D

Your wife is still here and my daughters took your daughter to the coast already. Not sure if they were stopping at SBNC on the way. ;)
