Alright so let’s make this happen. Let’s meet each other at our own mixer! To make things simple, how’s June 26th? We all have different schedules but would the evening work? Location is always kinda hassle to pin down but if you guys have suggestions, I’m all ears.
Anyhow, let’s make something happen.

I’m completely down for this. My son has a water polo tournament during the day so the evening is great:) Thank you Melissa for starting this:)

June 18, 2016 at 12:17 am #10790
Sadly this is a little too short notice for me :-/ I have plans next weekend. I was going to try to aim something for the weekend of July 9th-10th. Buuuuut I am only one person so we can always do both, and I hope you all have a wonderful time without me.
-
June 18, 2016 at 7:37 am #10803
I could only do evening that day as I will be coming back in town. But this sounds fun!

June 18, 2016 at 8:59 am #10805
escape room mixer?
-
June 18, 2016 at 10:15 am #10808
Hopefully this falls on my trip there boys and gals! I would love to meet you guys!
-
June 18, 2016 at 10:50 am #10815
@endlesspictures not a bad idea, it just depends on whose in for sure. Plus getting an escape room for next weekend may be hard to pull off but it’s not impossible.
@irishalliwell120, yes we can absolutely do something in July as well! I just personally went for June 26th because I know @111error will be in town and I wanted some opportunity to get Tension people together in case the June 25th OOA Orientation is a bust due to the calendar being ignored. But ya if you want to plan the July date let us know, I’m partially free that weekend.

Me and @prufrock5150 are down for the 26th and in July!
-
June 18, 2016 at 11:36 am #10818
Here’s a thought, we could reserve a party room at like a pizza place or a bowling alley, decorate it for a kid’s party and just all show up in black and stand around quietly being creepy.
-
June 18, 2016 at 11:49 am #10819
Just a thought, but does anyone have a house or property where we can BBQ and have our own dinner? I would love to cook for you all, I’m quite handy in the kitchen 😜
-
June 18, 2016 at 11:59 am #10822
I like all the ideas! How about this:
June 26–somewhere public because a mixer at someone’s house may be too short of time to get that organized.
July date–maybe mixer at someone’s house or apartment/condo rec room area?? I’d personally say Mac and cheese gathering
-
June 18, 2016 at 12:01 pm #10823
Yay @mkarrett that’s great news! Except the part about @111error being in town on what is clearly the wrong weekend as I will not be there to meet his awesome self. I guess we will both have to return to the city of angels to make that happen.
@kingkill33 I think that’s an amazing idea and would gladly offer my house, but everyone and their mother would have to come all the way down to San Diego to do so. But I love food, so we’ll have to figure out a way that you can make some. Perhaps barbeque at a park or beach? Do people still do this? What kind of food do you cook?
@endlesspictures I’d do an escape room with you any day. Sounds like fun -
June 18, 2016 at 12:07 pm #10824
@irishalliwell120 My specialties are Italian, American BBQ, and Mexican, but give me a recipe and I’ll nail it. I definitely have enough tricks up my sleeve to cook for us.
@mkarrett I have outdoor grills and a pool/spa. Maybe we can plan for that down the line. I’d have to clear it with the apartments, which has been done before, but it would require some planning.-
June 18, 2016 at 12:23 pm #10828
June mixer, July potluck! I’ll bring the sausage dip!
-

June 18, 2016 at 12:16 pm #10826
@mkarrett -“Macaroni and cheese gathering”-I HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS EXCITED ABOUT ANYTHING IN MY LIFE.
Can we please invite @gatekeeper3 ? We all know how much he loves cheesy noodles 😛
@kingkill33 -Italian?!? Please say lemon chicken. Pleeeaaassse say lemon chicken. God I love lemon chicken. -
June 18, 2016 at 1:02 pm #10833
@irishalliwell120 How about one better… A lemon caper sauce with grilled chicken breast, served on a tussle of angle hair pasta, with a house made ceaser salad. Oh gawd, I wanna eat now haha.

June 18, 2016 at 1:38 pm #10835
@kingkill33 can you inquire with your dwelling manager and see if it would be okay for us to come in July?

I make a killer vanilla bean cheesecake with homemade whipped cream and a chocolate wafer crust.
I’m in for both dates as well. I may be a little late to the July gathering but I’ll make it work.
-
June 18, 2016 at 6:41 pm #10860
@halfbloodfangirl –I make a mean spinach artichoke cheese dip! With Mac and Cheese I think we could actually have a pretty awesome cheese-centric gathering!

So I would like to put it forward that we should follow the advice of 4 and make the events a “family affair”.
I was wondering how literal this was meant to be.
When I arrive in LA in July I will be accompanied by my family. My misses has given me the go ahead to abandon them for a day or two for events while we are there. If there were to be a community gathering I would like all of your blessings for them to attend as well. She Is starting to become quite interested herself.
If not I understand. It seems to me that any good community has families within them… I dunno. lol.-
June 18, 2016 at 9:49 pm #10882
I say bring them. The more the merrier. My husband was graciously welcomed and eventually pulled in as a full apostle himself, right @prufrock5150? =P
-
June 18, 2016 at 10:07 pm #10887
Oh my 😄. @prufrock5150?… Is your Ole man!? What!! Bahahaha 😮. You guys are two of my favorite individuals on here. So full of imagination. Cant wait to meet you guys for reals!

For June 26th gathering I was thinking EightyTwo or XLanes in little Tokyo.
However, I’m holding off on solidifying the meet up place until I figure out where VesCorp is doing their event that evening.

I dont see this “plumbus” in the google doc. I do see that my chronicle has been slightly modified however.
What is the importance of the “Â’s” all over the place? -

I see. Was looking at the wrong google doc. hah.
-
July 10, 2016 at 11:52 am #14304
“plumbus
First they take the dinglebop, and they smooth it out with a bunch of schleem. The schleem is then repurposed for later batches. They take the dinglebop and push it through the krumbo, where the fleeb is rubbed against it. It’s important that the fleeb is rubbed, because the fleeb has all of the fleeb juice. Then a schlomi shows up, and rubs it, and spits on it. They cut the fleeb. There are several hizzards in the way. The blamphs rub against the trumbles, and the plubus and grumbo are shaved away. That leaves you with a regular old plumbus.
Everyone has a plumbus in their home.”
