Philly Meet Up

[tasty_kate]

Yesterday was the Whovian meet up that I started to plan the end of December. I sent out invites a few times and got about eight people who responded that were interested. Long story short, only badluck97 and my Dad (who has been watching the show since it came over to the States and introduced it to me last year) was able to make it out. Thankfully the company made for great conversation. :)
It took place at Monk's Cafe, a small but VERY well-stocked Belgian bar. A bit after 6:00, we parted ways. I feel like it was a success, even if it were a small one. I think I'll plan for another when the weather gets warmer and maybe some place different. I could see how a small, low-lighted bar setting may have dissuaded some people from meeting others online.

You guysss. I thought of you while working (12 hours! what even, I actually got the opposite of a day off).

I'd def sign up for another go. Warmer weather gives you more options (sidewalk cafes! bumming around Rittenhouse Square! etc) and people might be more willing to leave home. Also possibly don't ask me for recommendations as I seem to love dimly-lit stalker bars.

That was the opposite of a day off. :( That pretty much blows.

I like the way you think! That is, side walk cafes and Rittenhouse Square, not so much seedy stalker bars.

Ooh, you're icon twins with jennifergale, fancy that!
