OMG...I got lost in Minneapolis in the dark..

[TZ]

Coming home in the dark the construction signs confused me and I went north when I should have gone south ...I was getting scared being in a strange city all alone at night...:scared: I was able to get off the highway and turn around but I have such bad night vision that I took a few wrong turns ..with all respect to the nice folk I saw tonight....I'm more than ready to go home...:(

1. Did you have a DU meet-up?

:shrug:

[flvegan]

2. She and Pierre.Suave had dinner, I believe. At LEAST dinner.

I'm so starting another rumor.

[Haole Girl]

3. That's what I thought

But I expected a few details, other than a traffic report, myself. lol

[TZ]

5. I had dinner with Pierre, Ocelot Lydia Leftcoast and a few others

It was nice. Someone took pictures, unfortunately cause I look like shit. What I can say is I would like to award Pierre the purple plunger award for valor in the face of an aggressive restroom ...;)

[Haole Girl]

6. So...

You had fun? lol

[TZ]

10. Yeah it was nice

I did hear some interesting stories including the one I'm teasing Pierre about..that was the best

[Pierre.Suave]

7. LOL

Finally, the recognition I deserve!

[flvegan]

8. Wait...what? Pierre the Purple Plunger?

[TZ]

12. They don't award purple hearts

For what he did to protect our country.. So I made up one for him .. It involved a hurricane a naval ship and a sliding bathroom door!:patriot:

[madinmaryland]

15. You clogged the toilet?

:wtf:

[Pierre.Suave]

9. No one would believe you anyway...

Not after the last one.

[Pierre.Suave]

17. There were other people there too...

:rofl:

[flvegan]

21. Stud.

:thumbsup:

[Pierre.Suave]

23. ...

:rofl:

4. Watch out for those lakes

They're hard to see in the dark!

11. Sorry you got lost! We should have given you a cell phone number

in case that happened. We should have warned you -- Minnesota has two seasons: Winter and Road Construction. Welcome to Road Construction Season. I hope you had a good time anyhow... It was nice to see you again! Have a good flight home. Maybe it won't be so windy.

[TZ]

14. Thanks

Yeah it did occur to me that I should have had contact info for someone actually there. I'm just glad I got turned around before I hit the downtown.. I'm notorious for losing myself in bad areas of big cities.... It was nice to see you guys..you need to come visit me sometime! :)

[Muttocracy]

13. Minneapolis is not a strange city - it's pretty nifty, actually :)

[Pierre.Suave]

18. I agree

it is pretty cool!

[Generic Brad]

16. Come to St Paul

Our streets are seriously screwed up in their layout in contrast to Minneapolis. But oddly enough I have never been lost here. But, Minneapolis? I have gotten lost there more times than I care to recount. I think my brain turns off once I cross the Mississippi.

[Pierre.Suave]

19. I get lost there way too easily...

Thank god for GPS and maps

[KitchenWitch]

24. And see I was opposite

I can find my way anywhere in Minneapolis, but get totally lost in St Paul.

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

20. I had a great time at my first DU meetup

It was wonderful to meet the people behind the usernames. I know Pierre took some pix so I suspect we will be seeing those somewhere down the line.

Hope everyone enjoyed themselves!

22. Too bad you didn't keep heading north...

...we could have met for dessert! :-)
