I can't believe you're considering Dallas. Do yourself a favor and don't!

j) Oxford, MS

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Dallas isn't that bad. I think more ilXors should move to TX.

There's only 15 weeks left in this year? damn. . .

― Texas, Biyatch! (thatgirl), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:13 (twenty-two years ago)

didn't you hint you were moving to los angeles (against your will) a while ago? did i miss something since?

― donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:23 (twenty-two years ago)

yes, it's a list of all of the potential options at the moment (in order of descending odds as of 09/16/03).

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:35 (twenty-two years ago)

anything you're looking for in particular? Or just cities with big-ass populations?

― donut bitch (donut), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:39 (twenty-two years ago)

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:41 (twenty-two years ago)

the odds are all weighted on a loose combination of work/industry, family, friends, and proximity to IN-N-OUT (not necessarily in that order).

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:44 (twenty-two years ago)

curtis,

although i'm sure i would enjoy the fuck out of the kilwa/tibse, i'm not quite sure that's an option (as of today of course).

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 16 September 2003 22:46 (twenty-two years ago)

gyg, would do you do for work (if ya don't mind sharin', that is)?

db,

you can email me if you really want to know--

read as: not necessarily that interesting and i'm positive your mod friends can divulge as much. (i enjoy my privacy/confidentiality esp. in light of some things posted on other threads).

nichole: it's your job to predict the future!

funny enough, my ex-bandmate moved to chapel hill about 3 months ago (well, actually raleigh but still...) i miss him so much... :-(

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 17 September 2003 01:38 (twenty-two years ago)

gyg, the wifey said her manager asked people in her dept if they wanted to move too. i told her i wouldn't go to dallas, (or back to chicago) but we're both kinda hoping they ask her to move to NY.

― JasonD (JasonD), Wednesday, 17 September 2003 01:43 (twenty-two years ago)

what is the signifigance of january 1rst? is that when your division crumbles?

― JasonD (JasonD), Wednesday, 17 September 2003 01:45 (twenty-two years ago)

01/01/04 is a personal goal i've made for myself (whether i'm working the same job, a new job, ~~unemployed~~ travelling, etc.).

the nyc office is in the 1411 broadway building. i have friends in ABC city who've lived there for 10 years and they might have a (temporary) room for me for cheap, plus it's just a quick trip on the green line.

but then again i talked to your wifey's boss tonight, and i might be staying here anyways. but who knows, really.

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 17 September 2003 02:02 (twenty-two years ago)

nichole: it's your job to predict the future!

I would, but you apparently decided for yourself. San Fran is a great choice, though...and NYC, but I'm biased.

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Thursday, 18 September 2003 21:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Blount: it's where i spend my holidays
Nichole: SF is not only a great choice, but cheapest moving expenses (ie, none). wrt: Brasil; I think my lifestyle is suited better for Buenos Aires, but that move may not be just yet.
Sam: my heart says "toki doki" but the job market is a little challenging... increased cost of living and i've not seen any jobs i'm qualified for with a comparable increase. but the things you do for love...
Chris P: it's the longest shot on there for good reason.

i just realized how much i hate vanity threads.

let's talk about william shatner instead, thanks.

move to nyc, please. i'll make you stuffed peppers/eggplants and we can sit around listening to casiotone for the painfully alone.

maybe you could get a job as editor for the Menomonee Falls Tribune paper. jeez, did a five year old write that?

gygax! Don't GO! You LOVE it here. Yes you do. Say it.

I think Chicago would be a good choice. I love Chicago.

Although did you know that Bratislava is the baseball mecca of Europe?

― adaml (adaml), Friday, 19 September 2003 15:57 (twenty-two years ago)

three weeks pass...

i'm predicting after what happened yesterday that you'll be in SF

― JasonD (JasonD), Thursday, 16 October 2003 19:19 (twenty-two years ago)

you are mostly correct, although i'm predicting that i will be in chicago or dallas 10 weeks out of the year, but i will know more on monday. new york is totally out of the picture.

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 16 October 2003 19:52 (twenty-two years ago)

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 16 October 2003 20:05 (twenty-two years ago)

What happened yesterday?

― Chris P (Chris P), Thursday, 16 October 2003 20:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I challenged JasonD to a nude fistfight over hot coals because he challenged my masculinity.

― gygax! (gygax!), Thursday, 16 October 2003 20:17 (twenty-two years ago)

are you? i dunno if i'm coming out to sf with the boyz... are you coming out here?

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 16 October 2003 20:22 (twenty-two years ago)

hmm... $280 r/t to oakland on jet blue.

― lauren (laurenp), Friday, 17 October 2003 18:14 (twenty-two years ago)

dude! that is good, but i've seen windows of $199 depending on what day of the week you leave/return.

JetBlue is non-stop too.

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 17 October 2003 18:21 (twenty-two years ago)

you are missing out a chance to meet the true original party girl.

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 17 October 2003 22:15 (twenty-two years ago)

I know. And she's got all the indie-rock gossip. It's bordering on the libellous.

― adaml (adaml), Friday, 17 October 2003 22:16 (twenty-two years ago)

*sniff* I guess I don't get invited to go this time.

― hstencil, Friday, 17 October 2003 22:21 (twenty-two years ago)

― lauren (laurenp), Saturday, 18 October 2003 03:38 (twenty-two years ago)

since when did I not return your calls?

― hstencil, Saturday, 18 October 2003 15:45 (twenty-two years ago)

i think i called you earlier this week and you never called back, you rotten bastard. but maybe i didn't actually call you, i just thought about it.
whatever, don't pay attention to me. i felt like being dramatic. you know you're welcome to come with me anywhere anytime. like for instance, you'd be welcome to come see people of the north with me tonight!

― lauren (laurenp), Saturday, 18 October 2003 17:08 (twenty-two years ago)
