meme: what would you like to do?

[cellio]

I first saw this in mamadeb's journal, though I snagged this text from browngirl.

If you want, feel free to post a comment about something you'd like to do with me someday. Then, if you want, you can post the question in your own journal and find out what people want to do with you.

I'd love to go to dinner with you someday.

[vonstrassburg.livejournal.com]

That's easy. I'd like to maestro di ballo while you lead the dance band at the ball at KWDS V. :)

I would like to teach you to read.
*gets tapped on the shoulder*
Huh? She already knows how to read?
Well, shoot. That was my only idea!

[aliza250.livejournal.com]

I'd like to daven with you, study a page of Talmud, and argue about theology.

[lyev.livejournal.com]

Do some more dance geeking with you, but I think you knew that already ;-)

[cellio]

That would be fun. And it's not like we live 2000 miles apart or something, so this should be doable. :-)

[cellio]

:-) I'm flattered.

Remind me -- do you have a date set for that yet (and if so what is it)?

You realize that I'd never be able to bring the dulcimer on the plane, right? Of course, sometimes it's better if the music director doesn't also play, so that wouldn't necessarily be a problem. More of an issue might be foisting an outside director on a group of musicians that already knows how to work together -- who normally leads your band?

[cellio]

Can you teach me to read my physician's handwriting? :-)

[cellio]

That would be fun! So first we have to solve the 3000-miles-apart problem...

[cellio]

There you go being predictable again. :-)

Meet in person and have time to talk (ie unlikely at a con when everything's going a mile a minute and there are so many distractions).

I don't think I've yet met someone in person who I'd met online. I keep wondering whether it would feel odd at first or not.

Meet in person and have time to talk

Yeah, that would be great!

I don't think I've yet met someone in person who I'd met online. I keep wondering whether it would feel odd at first or not.

I met sanpaku a few months ago when he visited his family in Pittsburgh. We "met" through LJ. I didn't feel personally odd about it, because we've corresponded and I knew he was a neat person, but I kind of wondered how Dani (and Mrs. Sanpaku) would feel, because neither of them had any connection. (And my main connection is around the theme of religion, which doesn't do much for Dani.) It worked out just fine, though -- we had a nice meal and then shmoozed for another hour or so before they had to run off. Dani and I would both enjoy spending time with them again.

Meet at Pennsic and see your house! Lots of conversation and stuff, too.

[cellio]

Sounds good to me! Will you be at Pennsic this year?

[zare-k.livejournal.com]

One of these days I'd like to join you for Pennsic.

[vonstrassburg.livejournal.com]

Date: 3rd - 6th July 2005. NOT confirmed as the site won't let us book more than one year in advance. I should know for sure by Pennsic.

Our band leader should be at the event but I expect we will need more than one band. I'm hoping some travelling musicians will fill the gaps.

[alienor.livejournal.com]

Not this year. We're planning for 2005, though. The hope is to go to Gulf Wars and do a short (trial) Pennsic, since I've never been. I have such weird heat sensitivity that I'll either be fine, or just lay down and not want to do anything. I don't know enough about the area/climate to be able to tell, so we're planning a three day excursion to find out.

Gulf Wars I know I can handle, it's in March (plus I've been there before).

Though if I have many more days at work like today, I may be able to shake the heat sensitivity. Engineers shouldn't have to dig ditches, but that's what I did today (to bury instrumentation cable).

[cellio]

I'd like that too.

I don't know enough about the area/climate to be able to tell, so we're planning a three day excursion to find out.

It's variable. Most common is hot (90s) and humid, but humidity can sometimes be relocated as mud. :-) On the other hand, if skies are clear, which is often the case, nights can get pretty cold -- definitely bring the blankets and socks. (But hey, it's worth it to be able to see all the stars.)

I've also noticed an interesting quirk: I adapt to the heat and humidity in ways that I don't in the city. I think I notice the unpleasant conditions at home because I'm bopping in and out of air-conditioned spaces. At Pennsic, there's no AC and (I theorize) your body adapts. A couple years ago we had several days of heat indexes in the 110s (this was unusual!), and while it was certainly hot, it didn't really bother me. At home, a heat index around 95 or 100 can make me wilt.

(You do want to make sure you've got some non-plastic shade, of course. But you know that already.)

I've said it before, but I do want to go to services with you sometime. It won't be until summer, as I'm so busy it's hard to go to my own services just now. :-)

[sethcohen.livejournal.com]

Yes. First step: go to pharmacy school...

[cellio]

I'd be delighted to take you. Just let me know when.

If you want an engaging musical experience, consider the first Friday of June, the last of our "mostly music Shabbats" until fall. If you instead want "typical", we can arrange that too. :-)

[fiannaharpar.livejournal.com]

Talk to you, like people, and just move forward.

[cellio]

Sure. Feel free to call or find me at war practice or whatever. (I won't be home tonight.)
