DU folk in NYC?

[lala_rawraw]

Anything going on next week? I will be in town. Any DU meet up things?

[Infomaniac]

1. Not that I'm aware

I work in Mid-town. Where are you staying? Maybe we can get a group together for dinner/drink/whatever?

[bpcmxr]

2. I'm game.

Who else is here?

[lala_rawraw]

6. oh you are downtown, excellent

[lala_rawraw]

5. I am subletting and staying in my old

area downtown... i have to do some work stuff here and there, but would like to meet a few DUers in town... I don't have time to arrange anything, however, or plan anything for all of us as I am exhausted and working my arse off.

but if someone builds it, i will come:)

19. pick a day, lala, and we'll set something up

I am free after Weds - we can pick a place and meet for drinks - how is Thursday evening?

[Beetwasher]

3. Don't Think So

But if you want to arrange some drinks or something I might be able to make it depnding on the day.

8. lala....how about holding off until the weekend of Nov 12th?

I'll be in town then and would love nothing more than to hit the town for a few drinks with the infamouse lala_rawraw.

[lala_rawraw]

9. infamous? ewwwwwwwwwww

and no, cannot as work related:(

[Scout1071]

11. Come on now...you know you have a rep.

A rep for doing a helluva good job!

Have fun in NYC. I can't wait to go next month,

[lala_rawraw]

16. awwwww replaces ewwwwwwww, lol

thanks... i think i will spend first few hours having a cow at ground zero as I have not been back since the big event... will make my peace and head to SoHo, where all souls can be healed through heels and more heels... shoeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssss. LOL... can you tell I am a bit out of it at 4 AM?

[Scout1071]

22. It will be my first trip back since the "big event" as well.

I'll never forget seeing and smelling it for the first time.

I was there 3 wks after 9/11 - for my 30th birthday. My friends gave me a suite at the W as a birthday present. Favorite hotel room I've EVER been in - and that says a lot because I travel for work.

Have a blast for me. Love SoHo. Actually.....love it all. And I must admit that I'm quite jealous you are going.

Edited to add that if you have some free time, you might consider stopping in The International Center for Photography. I'm kind of a museum slut and try to hit various ones when I'm in town. This place blew me away. For more info, check out there ICP here: http://www.icp.org/

10. Hah, well I'll be there on monday and tuesday.

Hopefully getting dual-citizenship with Greece. Goodness NYC is expensive!

[lala_rawraw]

17. I know... I had to depend on the kindness of strangers

Or I would have been packed in a box on the street somewhere. I think the cheapest i could find was over 250 a night. Good luck on your citizenship. It is really inspiring to be a part of the naturalization process... and then you wake up with Shrub and Dick as your leadership.

[Qibing Zero]

18. Actually it's the other way around. ;)

I'm getting Greek citizenship because of my heritige and the better freedom of travel for being a EU citizen surely doesn't hurt.

12. I used to be a NYC girl. Now I'm 10 miles away in Joisey. I'm in the city

often, would love to have drinks or whatever and meet up with DU NYers. I would be honored to meet you Lala, I admire Raw Story and your Huffington posts and all the work you've been doing. You are inspirational. What days will you be in town? All week. Let me know.
DUer Betty Ellen lives in Hoboken, I'd love to meet her too.

[librechik]

13. You guys ought to get together with Stephanie

she's a New Yawker. And NewYawker99.

[Stephanie]

21. hey!

25. .

:loveya:

[lala_rawraw]

15. Sat - Sat a full

Seven days... but schedule for stuff is getting silly and crazy:

Cannot do Sat night
Cannot do Monday day

Might be able to do Thurs and Fri. Wed is holiday, but I imagine we could count that as a day of possible DU event... as I am no where near home... walking the streets of NYC like a hooker, lol. No really though, would love to meet you as well. Can someone organize something?

[Stephanie]

27. I posted above - how is Thursday?

It's next week, right? Thursday the 6th? How's that?

[lala_rawraw]

28. sure:)

[paineinthearse]

14. You're stopping 250 miles too short

All the good action is in Cambridge/Sommerville.

[WilmywoodNCparalegal]

20. Hey there! New York by day and Jersey City by night

here!

I work in the Meat Packing District on 14th St.

[Suziq]

23. Work in downtown NYC . . .

:hi:

24. So can someone put together a little drink night or something?

Then just let me know when/where?
