So, I've decided what I think I want to do for my birthday. In the afternoon, I'd like to go with a small gang of people to the Brooklyn studio of Christopher Brosius, the guy who founded Demeter Fragrances and is now doing art perfuming, and sniff stuff for a long time.

After that, I'd like to go to a box karaoke place (possibly Muse or possibly another one), and sing ourselves silly. Probably with sushi before or after depending on the overall timing. If you haven't been to box karaoke, it's essentially a private room with full control over the songs, no waiting for drunk guys singing "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant", no stranger stage fright.

If I planned this, I wonder, would anyone come? It would probably be on or around December 16.

There's no poll choice for "I'd love to see you, especially if you're coming down to the city so I don't have to deal with Metro-North, and I don't know how I'd react to the perfume thing." Sniffing stuff can be fun, but sometimes my nose is not up for anything much subtler than "I think I smell smoke."

And I have no idea right now how I'd feel about box karaoke.

I picked "I'd come but" as closer to what I wanted to say than any of the other options.

Yeah, we should get together, expedition or no. I miss you.

It would need to be on a weekend to be possible for us, though. We still don't know which schedule we'll be working this year-end, and it makes a huge difference.

I'm assuming it would be on the Saturday. Crash space is available. :)

*chuckle* I LOVE the agenda, but I'm too far away. *pouts*

I'd love to finally meet you. It's unlikely (but not impossible) that I could do the whole of it, because I get worn out by people very easily, so it's not fair to them, however, I'm excited enough by the varius components that it could happen.

I might be able to come and have no idea if I'd love it or not! But how do you know without trying, right?

It'll be lighthearted and fun, in any case, and I'd love to finally get together!

I'd certainly be interested in attending, but not sure when etc. December gets weird for us.
