9/22/06 NYC Meetup Pictures!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

I had a really great time and it was awesome to meet MissHoneyChurch, Joanie_Alpern, LynzM, Briarus, StarbucksAnarchist, and speedoo for the first time. And it was great getting to talk to JohnnyBlitz, who I briefly met in April, but didn't get to talk to. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of him or his awesome tattoo. I also didn't get pics of LionessPriyanka (and her super hott girlfriend...a very hot couple overall) or FreddaWeinberg. The next day, I got to hang out in Chinatown with Joanie, MHC, Briarus, and LynzM. After we split up, I ran into a friend and spent the day people watching at Washington Square Park, where I met Haley Joel Osmond. Apparently, he lives in her dorm at NYU. He's a cool guy, quite short though. Finally, I ended up back in NJ where I drunk my ass off with some friends, finally making it back home around 2pm today.

Without further ado, here are the pictures.

Briarus, LynzM and MissHoneychurch


Joanie_Alpern & ThomCat (sweetest man ever)

4. .....

which tattoo are you referring to? you *know* i have more than one! :rofl: :rofl:

it was nice talking to you and everybody else although I think we kind of freaked out poor starbucksanarchist with all our frank deviant homotalk!!

I was so relieved to discover there were no pictures of me on this thread, btw. I was opening it with the intent of hiding it just in case...

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

7. Hmmm...

I do believe I was referring to the penis on your arm.

I'm sure StarbucksAnarchist will recover from our frank deviant homotalk.

Lions and tigers and FTMs! Oh my!

[jonnyblitz]

9. we best tread lightly here!!!

we don't want to get this thread locked!! I do have a picture of that particular tattoo but i doubt it would pass the lounge censors. :hug: :hi:

[Haole Girl]

5. Those are great!

Where is StarbucksAnarchist these days? :hi:

You are very photogenic haruka3_2000!

Thanks for sharing these with us!! :)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

8. You're welcome.

He just moved to NYC recently and I think he doesn't have internet set up yet or something.

11. Thanks for the pics.

I like to see the peeps.

Makes me wanna chuck ThomCat under the chin.

[LynneSin]

12. I so wish I could have made it

I hope MissHC had a safe trip home to England :D

[MissHoneychurch]

13. Thanks for posting

I can't belive you mention *THE* tattoo of johnnyblitz :rofl:

Here is a pic of him (kinda hiding behind ThomCat



I don't think SA was frightened by you or the talk. He talked a lot outside the bar. The later it grew the more he talked :rofl: He just has a soft voice so he was hardly heard in the bar.

Sounds like you had a great time Saturday and Sunday after we parted.

[Dangerously Amused]

14. Great pics! What fun!

Thanks for posting them.


:hi:

[Heidi]

15. Thank you for the pics!

You look like a redhead in some of the photos, haruka! :thumbsup:

And does Starbucks Anarchist have the most beautiful smile, or what? :)

[MissHoneychurch]

16. He does

:D

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

17. You're welcome.

He has an awesome smile.

I actually dye my hair burgundy, but it's starting to grow out right now.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

34. ...

:blush:

And now I must go because I am at work right now. :hi:

[LostinVA]

18. I get to see what my Purrkins ThomCat looks like!

Man, you look like a total mick in that last photo, Haruka.... (my mom's family is Irish, so not nasty replies, gang).

I'M SO JEALOUS!!!!

[ThomCat]

19. And I even have my eyes open in one photo!

I blink so quickly when the flash goes off that I almost always have my eyes closed in photos.

My eyes are closed in the picture Haruka took, but open in the one Fredda took.

[MissHoneychurch]

20. Hold on a second

I took that picture, not Fredda!!!

[ThomCat]

21. Oops.

:P Sorry about that.

You did. You took one of the few good photos of me. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

22. Just checked Fredda's pictures again

you are not even looking at the camera in them :P

[LostinVA]

23. I hate having my photo taken

Because someone always catching me looking geeky.

[MissHoneychurch]

24. Geeks are fun

and believe me, there never have been taken so many pics of me as on this trip. And I definitely don't like all of them. The ones haruka posted of the NYC meet-up I like.

[LostinVA]

25. The one with you and the kitty is cute

[MissHoneychurch]

26. That is one I really like myself

must be the kitten :D

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

32. I know! When I was in Ireland, American tourists kept mistaking me for

being a mick. I'm only like 75% though. It was actually my dad's nickname in the HS yearbook.

[LostinVA]

35. I've never noticed it before from other photos you've posted

[LynzM]

27. Great pics, thanks for posting them!

[MissHoneychurch]

28. Hey LynzM

:hi:

Hope you had a wonderful Saturday afternoon and Sunday :hug:

[AirmensMom]

29. Thanks for the pics, haruka!

:bounce: They're great! :yourock:

[MissHoneychurch]

30. They are great people

but someone is missing on those pics .... YOU!!!!

[AirmensMom]

31. *sniff*

Thanks. :hug: Wish I could've been there, too. But then everyone would have REALLY thought I was hogging you ... or whatever billyskank's word was. :shrug:

[u4ic]

33. Great pics!

Looks like lots of fun was had by all! :toast:
