meet me at starbucks
November 7, 2009
I’m gonna be in DC next week. I know a bunch of you live in that area, and I’d love to meet up with as many of you as I can. But I’m only there a few days, and there’s just no way I could possibly get to everybody. So how about everybody comes to me?!
On Sunday afternoon (11/15), I’ll be chilling at a Starbucks in Alexandria, VA for a few hours, and I’m hoping you’ll come say hi. Because I’d love to hug you! And it would completely suck if nobody showed up!
Let me know if you’re planning to come, and we can swap phone numbers for just in case.
@bahava says:
Have fun!!! Wish I could be there and enjoy the happy red cups with you!
Awww … too bad I’ve got a new ‘neck of the woods.’ Great idea, though!
@nateonamission says:
SO TEMPTING. I know I’m in Seattle. Still.
@nateonamission says:

@moweezle says:
If only I were in DC……
I will be in DC from Dec 8-18th….will you be back there?
make sure you get some goooood pizza from that pizza place we went to and some BAGELS from the place next door.
i love, loveeeeeeee, love you.
@atangie says:
Can someone please invent a teletransporter this week!!!
Blerg.
@chrystieecole says:
Um, it is a crime that we live so close to each other currently and have not met to share a warm cup of coffee and conversation. I think that should be resolved soon.
i wish it was washington state instead of washington dc as i would love to hug you and drink coffee and meet others
@nateonamission says:
YES, PLEASE!!!!!!!
@cassgirl says:
San Diego is the other direction…. Kthanxs
@mjdagenhart says:
I second that!
I think I’ll drag her out to the SD area sometime.
@cassgirl says:
The only problem Earl is that she’ll be headed back to her Homeland before you come!! :( :(
Can I say I am so EXCITED that you are coming to SD!!!!!
Fred
Is she!? I thought she was heading back in October-ish? I am hoping to be there pretty soon after I graduate this May…
@cassgirl says:
What brings you here?? ………………………….. ME? LOL
My boy is being re-stationed: from Norfolk to SD. It’s taking place this spring while I finish up my senior year.
@cassgirl says:
Awesome place to live if you Love:
beaches, great mexican food, and suntan lotion/flipflops!!
All of the above! I’ve been to SD a couple times briefly, and I’m excited to be there for longer-term!
we are planning a family trip (hubby, myself, and our 3-year old daughter) to SD next may. any “must-see”s you would suggest? Besides the zoo and seaworld.
@cassgirl says:

La Jolla cove (sea lions)
Many beaches
Hodad’s a famous hamburger spot
Ruben H fleet museum (hands on for kids)
…. many things
thanks, Heidi!
Shoot! Not going to happen. Me and dan are going to be staying downtown chicago that weekend. Without Con. A much needed mommy and daddy time. We are so excited. I would love to see you before you head back to sa next year. Will you be up north any where semi near me? I would drive too see you. Hope lots of friends can meat you.
Hmmm…I got some amazing engineering friends. I’ll see if they can work on the teleporter.
If not, if you’re ever in the other SD (South Dakota)…
tempting…
@gritandglory says:
i’m starting to think i’ll be sitting by myself in starbucks…
Not so, dear girl. Debbie and I will be there!
oh yeah…stop yer whinin’ ;-)
bummer getting excited at so many new notifications and posts, only to find out that they are negatively rsvping…. hate it when that happens. :) i’m gonna try! have to see if I can borrow a car. xo! fingers crossed.
Sounds like if you planned a West coast tour you’d have lots of people to meet with. Count Portland as one of your stops if you ever do :)
macy, casey and i second, third, and fourth that!! i have a spare bedroom…but you may need to let me know what kind of pillows to get for you. {smile}
@JewelzSightings says:
I won’t be in DC, but I am in GA…
I wanna go!!!!
@traceepersiko says:
i’m there!! i’ll drink chai with you in a red cup!
@christielici0us says:
Aw! I would totally come and see you if I were going to be in the area! But alas, I’ll be at the Christmas Gift & Hobby Show in Indianapolis with my mom! Besides, I’ll bet you have plenty of visitors! :]
@ventigrace says:
… you could meet me at the Dulles airport for my first red-cup of the season… THIS SATURDAY! Holy smokes.
… I know I can’t make your event (okay- do I even begin another MAN-dy lecture? Dang. You’re brave) but I’m totally looking forward to some kitty red-cup bliss ;)
I totally can’t believe that you are going to be leaving on Friday…uh…YIKES!
I’d be there is I were anywhere close…
in my dreams I am there….. but alas, I live in Michigan… :)
@rfbryant says:
I would SO be there if I were in DC. Come to Knoxville and we’ll hang, I’ll show you all over the area!
Whoot, Whoot – you’ll be in my “hood” – I am so stopping by! Save me a caramel frappaccino, and a seat! Lisa-Jo
My mom will be in town this weekend, so I probably won’t stop by, BUT if we get a craving for *$’s around that time, we for sure will come to that one!
Not at all possible for me.
I looked at train tickets just in case. It’s only about a 4 hour train ride, but I won’t be able to swing it. Looks like a nice group might show up though. Hooray!
Alece, Terri and I are looking forward to seeing you after church on Sunday.
@danielleH says:
how fun is that?!
Of course the weekend you are in town, I am in TX…..figures. When do you head back?
@bajanpoet says:
Hey what about coming to the Caribbean? We don’t have Starbucks in Barbados, but we do have something similar! You can have coffee.. and I’ll have a fruit smoothie. (I HATE coffee! hahaha)
okay I am going to try to make it :-)
do you know what specific times on Sunday? I go to church right near the Alexandria area
@gritandglory says:
i’ll be there from 3:00 – 5:00. come by whenever!
haha! I love love love that you have a little “poster” for that!
@gritandglory says:
i’m a nerd like that!
There’s a Starbucks about 10 minutes from my house.
Just sayin’.
fun idea! i would love to meet you, but think it’s fun that you’ll be spending time with people you’ve “known” longer than a hot minute! :D
@gritandglory says:
would be so great to see you again (it’s been—what?—16 years???!!) — and no worries. many of the people who may show up i’ve never even met in person before!
