I am so excited for you! You'll all have a blast. What a good group.

I sooo want to be a fly on that wall.......

IT WAS SO FUN!

Lovely people, all of them. I had to get back to work, otherwise I could have sat and chatted for hours.

Thanks Bri and mon and beest...and the darling kids! You're just as wonderful as I expected. :)
Trilby • Aug 13, 2009 3:20 pm
Was fun! It was so great to meet the monster and beest clan (the kids are SO freakin' adorable!!) and shawnee was just as I imagined she'd be! Very lovely, all around!

This makes me want to meet up with MORE dwellars!

We've got pics - as soon as we can post 'em!

Never, right? Never would be good. wink wink nudge nudge :rolleyes:
Trilby • Aug 13, 2009 3:43 pm
Oh, you're beautiful and you know it!
Shawnee123 • Aug 13, 2009 4:03 pm
HA! No, you are! You and mon are both so darn cute. It was weird, I felt like I knew you but had never seen you. It's kind of surreal.

I'm so glad we all got together. The internet brings together people who probably would have otherwise never met, and I for one am very happy about that! :)
Cicero • Aug 13, 2009 4:07 pm
Omg!!! Photos!!! Photos!!!

N O W @ now.com .... please...;)
Shawnee123 • Aug 13, 2009 4:12 pm
I don't have any! Bri has no connector. mon is camping! Bwaahahaaaaa.

There Will Be Pics. ;)

(Nice to see you Cic)

I just wanted to say again how much I enjoyed meeting everyone: Bri, mon, beest, and the kids (and the kids are charmers...nice kids!)

I'm actually a little shy about these kinds of things IRL and I could have spent so much more time with these really cool and real people.

Thanks again, guys. :)

Aren't they, though? The Beestmonster kids were a hoot.
zippyt • Aug 13, 2009 11:05 pm
Yes they are
monster • Aug 14, 2009 11:10 pm
aw shucks :o

...just two and a half hours after leaving shawnee for the second time we're home.... (Bri, couldn't get through this afternoon -just got answerphone :(.

Have to say, for a shy girl ....that Shawnee knows flipping everyone! couldn't manage three words before someone interupted to say hi. :lol: Beest says you need to go to that place more often, Shaw -clearly they miss you!
Shawnee123 • Aug 14, 2009 11:20 pm
Ha ha...you missed some glares focused at me because glarers in a place like that really only like to glare: no interaction needed. haggis!

It was great to see you. Thanks for stopping! :)
lumberjim • Aug 14, 2009 11:24 pm
pics of brianna will get the collage fired back up.

just sayin
classicman • Aug 14, 2009 11:31 pm

here:

The server only took one before hurrying off. truly awful of me and I disown Thor at this point......
Shawnee123 • Aug 14, 2009 11:50 pm
I love Thor's face. It's only perfect for his personality! :lol:

Thanks mon. Great pic.
monster • Aug 14, 2009 11:52 pm
See how different Hebe's eyes are in that pic?
Shawnee123 • Aug 14, 2009 11:56 pm
I did notice that, and I knew you had posted that before, but IRL I don't think she looked at me long enough. Haha.

I know another kid about her age, the daughter of one of my cow orkers, who has the same different colored eyes. Needless to say, like your daugher, she is unique and beautiful and smarter than crap!
monster • Aug 14, 2009 11:57 pm
By the way, on the way to meet the Dayton Divas we noticed some appropriate signage :p

I suppose Thor is your youngest with his eyes crossed. I dunno. I think I'd hang on to him. A good laugh is hard to come by.


You can always throttle him later if you have to. :D

Beest and his harem. :thumb2:
Sundae • Aug 15, 2009 6:15 am
OMG
How seething with jealousy am I? I'll turn into a seethe [COLOR="White"](obscure Blackadder quote)[/COLOR]

You are all so very gorgeous.
I would have loved to have been there.
Contrary to received wisdom, I do actually love kids (I just don't get babies) and I bet the Beestmonster kids are wonderful. AND the rest - some of the people I really most want to meet in the Cellar.

But especially, Bri! A face to a name and a voice, finally!
And aren't you cute as hell too?
Blimey.
Undertoad • Aug 15, 2009 7:23 am
Awesome all around, people!
Clodfobble • Aug 15, 2009 9:52 am
Oh hooray! This picture of happy people has just made my day.
glatt • Aug 15, 2009 10:31 am
I love the picture of everyone, and Thor is awesome.

Finally, a picture of Brianna! :)
monster • Aug 15, 2009 11:42 am
Actually, that was her stunt double....

....anyone seen her around here lately? like since then? I'm worried she may be trapped in our roofbox....
Sundae • Aug 15, 2009 11:51 am
Without wanting to talk out of class...
I don't think Bri was entirely happy with the photo.

Which is her opinion and she's entitled to it.
But personally I think she looks like the beautiful person she is.
monster • Aug 15, 2009 12:43 pm
Did I miss something? Do you want it taken down, Bri? Where are you, dammit, and why didn't you answer your phone?

I plan to email the orig to you guys as soon as I have rinsed off my hair dye and retrieved your email addies from upstairs
Sundae • Aug 15, 2009 12:46 pm
No, I asked her that and she said it wasn't what she wanted.
She's not throwing a strop.
She just isn't in a happy place.

This is a good moment to give Tony a big pat on the back. Great job keeping this place going!

Y'all are beautiful people.
skysidhe • Aug 16, 2009 10:49 am
Great photo!

What place is that? The food looks great too.

lol@ me looking at the food.
Shawnee123 • Aug 16, 2009 10:52 am
It's the Dublin Pub, near the Oregon District in Dayton (a charming little area.)
skysidhe • Aug 16, 2009 10:55 am
It looks very charming. Real , like you can just go in and kick up your feet almost.
Nirvana • Aug 16, 2009 11:04 am
Great happy photo! You all look mah-velous!!
Nirvana • Aug 16, 2009 11:05 am
Yikes! I had to post again right away my post count was ominous!:eek:
Shawnee123 • Aug 16, 2009 11:07 am
There are a lot of nice places along there. The OD itself has a few small bars that my ex and I frequented for a many years because there was live music. The Nite Owl always had blues and jazz type music. Gilly's on the other end of the OD, was a larger venue and had such acts as Tom Scott and Najee and Dianne Schuur.

I say all this in past tense because it was some time ago. I don't know if they still have the quality music, but I assume so. I guess Mr Gillotti (sp?) is still bringing jazz into Gilly's.

The OD also has cute shops set along a brick street. Oh, and I think a couple "adult" stores. :lol:

There are some beautiful homes in the residential area.

really?

Is that true and who took the photo? I just ask because if you look real close only monster looks to be following directions and giving a BIG smile.
monster • Aug 16, 2009 4:12 pm
the server took the pic.
skysidhe • Aug 16, 2009 7:24 pm
ah

well it's a great photo. All of you. The server did good.
lumberjim • Aug 16, 2009 9:00 pm
When will you guys come visit US?! I want a pic of the Monster Family, UT, Bruce, Jackie, Classic, Sleeve, wolf and my clan at Victory Brewing. maybe we could get blue and monkeyboy and dare i say...tw? out of hiding?


Bri! your cute little button nose and twinklie eyes!

I'll put that in the collage as soon as you say I can. so cmon cmon cmon
classicman • Aug 16, 2009 9:40 pm
Looks like a good time was had by all! Great Pic!
Juniper • Aug 17, 2009 2:56 pm
Damn, damn, dammit!!!! I take a few days off and look what I miss! Why didn't anyone call me or e-mail me? Bri, you used to have my cell number. GRRRR!

Next time I won't miss it! :(
monster • Aug 17, 2009 3:08 pm

I know. I'm sorry I didn't check in. Glad you had a good time!

Shawnee, maybe Bri and you and me can get together sometime.

Yup - same here! Just that there are more people for them to see here :(

One day, one day. I'll come & see you.

Hey, it's only been 4 years so far....
Shawnee123 • Aug 19, 2009 9:47 am
Ahem, there was talk of a certain couple of locals making a roadtrip to Philly...in the future. ;)
Undertoad • Aug 19, 2009 9:53 am
Come to a local nasty bar and see my band! We're somewhere every two weeks in the fall. Calendar (apologies for the website, it was not one of mine.)
Shawnee123 • Aug 19, 2009 9:57 am
That was our plan, come when your band is playing.

I wouldn't expect this until sometime after the first of the year, though, with my schedule.
Undertoad • Aug 19, 2009 10:05 am
I will buy the first pitcher.
Sundae • Aug 19, 2009 10:10 am
My local nasty is the Dairy Maid, Elmhurst Estate, Aylesbury, Bucks.
Doesn't seem to be on your schedule* yet.
Please correct.

* Note - pronounced shed-yule

I mean to visit Aylesbury, you silly goof.

Elmhurst is also a different country, trust me :eek:

So, Sparks, what part of the wide brown land do you get sunburnt in?
Sun_Sparkz • Aug 20, 2009 12:28 am
I get sunburnt (and did so quite tremendously on sunday) in NSW - Newcastle.
Have never ventures to SA though..
ZenGum • Aug 20, 2009 1:53 am
Damn tyranny of distance again.

I think you are the most active NSW poster. We have Ali in Queensland, Leah in Sydney, Ducksnuts, TheAplphajerk and Kingswood in Victoria, Zengum, Casimendocina (currently O/S) and Minx the occasional in S.A., Khumbulu in Perth, Wombat in Canberra, maybe a few other occasionals.

How about we all meet in Alice Springs this Saturday? :p
Sun_Sparkz • Aug 20, 2009 2:05 am
Hell yes!
I'll bring the sunscreen and croc repellant.

Scroll down to the bottom of any page. Frapper Map is what you seek.

I genuinely didn't know they were talking about. I think it's a fair question.

There's no such thing as a dumb question, but not knowing who Brianna is really turned heads.
Juniper • Aug 26, 2009 3:49 pm
Guess what I just found out?

SOMEONE from the Cellar is registered for one of my classes Fall quarter.

Isn't that exciting!
Clodfobble • Aug 26, 2009 3:53 pm
That is exciting! Tell her to hurry up and work past her funk so she'll come back and post more often. ;)
Juniper • Aug 26, 2009 3:55 pm
Class starts 9/8. I do hope she's feeling better by then.
