Washington DC, July 17th-21st

I know this is excruciatingly last minute, but I am going to be in Washington DC for the days mentioned in the thread title. Some pretty fantastic members of this forum live in the DC area, and if you're willing to meet me, I am willing to meet you! Lets grab a drink, or just a lunch, or one of those "drinking lunches" where you down mojitos and nachos and stumble into traffic. All of the above!

I will be flying out in a couple of hours. Post in this thread and I will send you my cell phone number and we can coordinate once I touch down in your alien timezone sometime in the AM tomorrow, flight leaves Seattle (SEATAC) at midnight.

PS: I kinda really want to visit this place when I am in DC. http://www.doaks.org/museum/ I am going to (history) Nerd The Fuck Out.

    I live within an hour of DC, sounds like a good time.

    Literally been to every museum, including that one, five times already. Ir's a good city for them.

    This is from a scammer.
    Everyone knows Volyu doesn't exist.

    He vanished from the world several years ago.
    None but the Janissaries know where to find him.

    Funny story about Volyu. He actually saved my Secret Santa present that he was trying to send to me for like a year but couldn't because I am constantly running from the law, and the first time I met him he had it on him. It had the directors cut of Kingdom of Heaven in it, which is the fucking best and I have since watched like 1000 times.

    So basically he is like a genie but cooler.

    I was there when that happened!

    Volyu is a certifiably Cool Dude. I wish I lived closer to him so we could hang out for more than once every few years.

    One of these days Rachel and I will fly to Washington and visit folks up there.

    I wasn't actually running from the law. It was more like the KGB, but waaay more dangerous.

    I'm around a bit this weekend. Have an event on Saturday, but I'm not sure how long it'll run.

    My desire to trek into DC when it's 100+ degrees out isn't terribly huge, however.

    Damn, this isn't a good week for me. Friday night might open up, depending on how the rest of the week goes at work. I *might* be able to leave early, but I don't wanna jinx it. But if you do decide to wander around DC, Friday should be the best, notwithstanding a bit of rain here and there. It's supposed to be down to the mid-80s.

    Sometimes I have ideas for things.

    I'm from Tulsa but in DC for the next couple weeks on business, so this is an incredible coincidence! I don't really have a way to get around but if I can find some way to meet up then I will try to make it. I'm staying in Georgetown/Rosslyn.

    Nobody wants to take charge of them, and we can't let @godmode plan these anymore because he is cursed i guess?

    also @Volucrisus Aedrius I am getting out of work early on friday (early for me is 5pm) so friday became even more convenient (for me)

    Okay, we can basically go anywhere tomorrow. Does anyone have a favorite restaurant or something? We could always go to a Five Guys or something of the sort.

    Five Guys isn't exactly conducive to a group gathering, though.

    There are actually DC gatherings fairly regularly but I guess a lot of people hate me or something because my thread only gets replies from the same 6 people.

    I think everybody just waits for you to bump it up saying when the next thing is

    or at least I do, because being in charge of strangers meeting up is scary

    Less scary for me, more I'm really lazy and think nobody wants to meet me. So other awkward nerd combo.

    I assume people would want to do it on the Metro, so Clarendon or something?
