Sinister: BOSTON BOSTON BOSTON

[stacey dahling]

hey y'all
long time no speak..mmm...
i hate to admit this, but i haven't actually read the list for at least a 
month. not even selective laura llew or ken chu readings. disgraceful, i 
know. i've been too busy working two jobs and having dirty weekends in 
high-end hotels in ritsy new york suburbs. wooo!
ANYHOO
i emerge briefly to announce:

oO0 BOSTON PICNIC DETAILS 0Oo

i see i've already been thanked for taking on picnic mummy duties, before 
even dispensing with such duties properly. ha! thanks love. we'll see who's 
thanking whom come saturday. erm. yeah.
so i've decided on a place (thanks to those who offered suggestions) and 
time (randomly... on my own... i hope it makes sense).

3 PM:

  at the fountain in BOSTON COMMON directly in front of the venue (the 
ORPHEUM). for those of you who are wont to getting hopelessly lost, i could 
arrange to meet you a little bit earlier at the boston common T station. if 
there is such a need, email me.

.... from there, we can move along to the PUBLIC GARDENS, which are close by 
and pretty. we can then spend a few hours eating, preferably from FOOD WE 
HAVE BROUGHT (more likely, however, we can send groups out strategically to 
buy things, judging from prior picnic experience). or, we can just laze 
about and then go out to dinner together. or WHATEVER OUR LITTLE HEARTS 
DESIRE. yup. i am Ms. Go-with-the-flow Picnic Mummy.

5:30 PM or thereabouts:

depending on the size of the group and its age make-up (i am aware we shall 
have some underagers among us), we may MOVE ON OVER TO FOLEYS PUB, also 
conveniently located closeby. This option is for those who arrive late, or 
consider themselves too cool to hang out at a picnic on the Commons. Or for 
those who are coming along with other friends who refuse to attend an 
outdoor gathering of sinister freaks and geeks but may be okay with going to 
a pub where you might happen to run into said freaks and geeks (my sister is 
one of these, for instance, and i shall likely be meeting her there).

OK? SOUND GOOD? Doors open at 7:30 p.m., so I figured that 4.5 hours of 
pre-show hang-out is more than enough. Any more than that, and I'd be at a 
complete loss as to what to do.
If you're running late or whatever, we will probably be easy to spot. But 
maybe not. In this case, I will provide you with my sister's cell phone 
number. (I was going to just post it here, but I think my sister would kill 
me if she found out i did that. So, email me for it.) Just give me a call 
and I'll guide you to where we're at.  Also, in case some of you didn't know 
this, the secret sinister listee sign is to wear your b&s pins upside down 
(no, i don't know who thought this up, and yes, this insinuates you are near 
enough to notice).
also also also
if you want to know what i look like in order to ease recognition, go here: 
www.geocities.com/dahling007 or www.dreamwater.net/slithytoves/me.htm

is that it? i think so.
if anyone wants to come equipped with some sort of activity, be my guest. 
scrabble...inflatable toy...erm...whatever. i'll likely come equipped with 
my digital camera and maybe some cookies. so be warned (on both accounts).
oh yeah
if anyone is interested in post-show socializing, we may be able to arrange 
that. i might have a special activity lined up, but that's as of now still 
up in the air.

thanks to those who gave me some input. further input is still welcome.
see some of you on saturday!
ta!

-stacey
