Right smack-dab in the middle between Valentine's Day and Easter - do you buy the marked-down M&Ms with the hearts-covered package, or splurge on the bunny-festooned ones?
I'd go with the bunnies, without a doubt, but then again I hope to be one next Easter, in my "Jeepers!" fursuit, currently under construction....In the meantime, why don't we all get together this coming Saturday, March 14 for our monthly get-together?
Here's the details, pretty much the same as last month: we meet up at the "Le Pain Quotidien" restaurant at 85 Broad Street in the downtown Manhattan financial district; it's about 2-3 blocks from the Bowling Green Golden Bull and the Bowling Green 4/5 subway station, the Broad Street J & Z station, the R & W trains at Whitehall Street/South Ferry, not to mention the Staten Island ferry terminal, also 2 blocks away from the LPQ. Meetup.com's map for our location (directly below) points out Fraunces Tavern, a famous historical NYC landmark; our Le Pain Quotidien is directly across the street from the tavern.]
I'll be bringing a few more volumes from my "Art Of" animation bookshelf to share with people, along with my trusty old Scrabble set; feel free to do likewise: games, sketchbooks, SFW art, furry memorabilia, etc. Fursuit heads, tails & entire fursuits are welcome as well, and I highly recommend wearing your tail at the meet-up!
Come hungry and order lunch (or just a pastry & coffee if you're on a tight budget) because their food is great and the staff are good people. (Tip them generously if you can.)
