Who's going to a debate watching party?

I am in Houston! If you haven't signed up to attend one, you can find one near you here:

1. I'm terribly shy

and a party at 9pm est on a Tuesday is really inconvenient. that scheduling truly is intentionally bad.

3. There's not really much choice on the time

It will air at 6 pm on the west coast. Any earlier would mean fewer people could watch it live there because they would still be at work.

9. I understand that. I prefer my own company myself. That being said,

I've been volunteering and I can tell you that Bernie folks are really great. In fact, I will be going to the debate site, working there as a volunteer and staying with my new Bernie friends. I assure you, this is not something I ever would have pictured myself doing but I love the group and Bernie is well worth it.

So, even if you don't got to a debate party, at least look at the site and pick some event you feel you can deal with and attend at least one. I think you will be happily surprised. Bring a friend or relative if needed for support but i guarantee you, you will make new ones. And some of the events don't require a lot of interaction either. Besides, I can already tell from your posts that you will definitely fit in at at any of the events.

2. Moi!

For once our group ISN'T the host. PDA is having a gig at the California Nurse's Association office. The local Democrats are having one too but, as I explained in another thread, they have a life-size Hillary cutout and if I recall correctly arson is still a felony so I decided I'd better go tot he PDA event.

4. Is it wearing a pantsuit?

The cutout, that is.

[Le Taz Hot]

5. uYup.

[TexasBushwhacker]

14. But seriously, I don't blame her for wearing pantsuits

one bit. Most women reach a point, when they're older, when wearing high heels is reserved for special occasions and wearing flats with skirts just isn't very flattering. Fortunately I've never been a job that required more than "business casual" dress, but if I did have to dress more professionally, I'd be in pantsuits too.

15. At some point, you reach an age in which

you don't really care if it's flattering -- it's all about the comfort. One of the many benefits of getting older.

7. The Nurse's association is supporting Hillary?

Ours is supporting Bernie. They are having their hoe down in Los Osos. We are going to San Luis.

[Le Taz Hot]

11. No, they're supporting Bernie.

I just re-read my post and I can see where it was unclear. It's the other reason I wanted to go to their watch party, no Hillary supporters swooning over her every word.

10. LOL on the arson. nt

6. Moi. Golden girl aged pals and I going to a college sports and dancing watering hole in our

college town that is turning over all it's TVs over to the debate. It should be raucous if nothing else. It will be interesting with all us grannies rubbing elbows with the millennials.

8. I'm invited to one. Not sure if I want to watch with a group

or on my own where I can really pay attention. We'll see.

12. I am hosting a Debate Watch Party-so far 100 have signed up-need bingo cards

I just realized that 4 unique bingo cards will not be enough, unless i want 25 winners per game.
I will start a new thread looking for cards. I got red/white/blue poker chips to use as markers!
