San Francisco Bay Area Meetup
Sunday October 5, 9 AM-1 PM
Blue Playground in Golden Gate Park (enter off Fulton @ 9th Ave.)
http://www.ggmg.org/Playgrounds/ggpark_9thave.html
We'll have a blanket on the lawn next to the play structures. If you're looking for me, I'm pale and brown-haired, probably in pigtails, and will be accompanied by a small blond child in glasses. - Lisa
Moxie is NOT going to be there, unfortunately. If only I could go...
I am already very homesick for San Francisco (moved back to Norway two years ago after living there 3.5 years) - this doesn't help!
Wish I could be there!

Where in Norway? I want to do a meetup there!

Just to clarify: Blue Playground is NOT the main GG Park playground.
It's much smaller, much more enclosed (essential for those with toddlers prone to making a break for it). Best accessed either from Fulton at 9th or through a tunnel from the concourse.

(Charisse, good suggestion re Yerba Buena, too - but I thought it'd be harder to keep track of kids while connecting w/parents in such an area... hope that's OK.)

I'm in!!

Are you guys actually going to be there 4 whole hours? B/c I'm probably going to aim for the latter half of the morning so we can head to another SF event later in the day. I live down on the San Mateo coast, so it doesn't make sense to shlep in twice.

I'll go to Norway! I'm just a bit south in Denmark.
@Inki-- I lived in SF for over 10 years. Miss it terribly, though I won't be moving back.
Let's get a Scandinavian/former SF meetup! Too exclusive?...

How about not-quite-yet Moxie Moms? Mr Baby is due 11/27, but I'd love to meet the local posters on this excellent blog!

@Lisa, no problem, we'll still come by--it's an easy N Judah shot for us. Is anybody else bringing a 4+ year old? There is some good running around for bigger kids nearby in the bandshell area and the arboretum too.
Posted by: Charisse | September 24, 2008 at 01:53 PM
@ Charisse, yes, mine's 4 and a half (but very small). I think we live very near each other, actually. I'm right down the hill from UCSF. Are you Cole Valley?
@ pennifer, I'm certainly not going to be able to stay 4 hours - I'd guess I'd be there around 10, for maybe 2 hours.
@ eccentriclibertarian, yes! Come!!
Posted by: Caroline | September 24, 2008 at 02:23 PM
hmm, maybe we should say 10-1, given that it's a weekend.
whaddaya all think?
but we'll definitely be there 10-1!
Posted by: Lisa | September 24, 2008 at 03:39 PM
@Caroline and Charisse, mine's 2 1/2 but looves 4-year-olds. If yours like/tolerate littler kids, he'll be in heaven...
Posted by: Lisa | September 24, 2008 at 03:41 PM
We need a boston meet up. I know you're out there...maybe even in brookline, passing me by on the way to Paula's singalong.

Mine tolerates anyone who will play in the dirt and look for bugs and flowers with her.
And 10 - 1 sounds good. No point in going to the trouble and then passing like ships in the night.
Posted by: Caroline | September 24, 2008 at 04:33 PM
Are there ever any San Jose meet-ups?
Posted by: Amy | September 24, 2008 at 06:39 PM
I won't be able to make it. :( Maybe next time.
Posted by: Sharon aka Mommie Mentor | September 24, 2008 at 07:05 PM
Bummer, I am going to be out of town that weekend for a wedding. I am down the peninsula a ways but always need a good excuse to go to the city. Maybe next time...
Posted by: dana | September 24, 2008 at 07:15 PM
for what it's worth, my guy is 10 mos old and an enthusiastic crawler/cruiser.
Posted by: pennifer | September 24, 2008 at 10:23 PM
@Caroline, yep, we're very nearby. :)
@eccentriclibrarian, by all means come!
We'll need to head out for 1pm swimming so maybe we'll bring along some picnicables (or visit the hot dog guy across the street).
Posted by: Charisse | September 24, 2008 at 10:56 PM
OK, 10-1 it is.
Sharon and Dana, i'm sorry we'll miss you - and everyone else, looking forward to meeting you all.
We'll bring snacks and such as well.
Bugs and flowers, yay!
Posted by: Lisa | September 25, 2008 at 12:43 PM
Oops, spoke too soon! Now I am on bed rest for the duration.
Hopefully this (Bay Area get-together) will happen again next year!
Posted by: eccentriclibertarian | September 28, 2008 at 06:20 PM
I'm sorry I didn't make it after all. I badly twisted my ankle, so I couldn't hobble around well enough to make it. Rats!
Posted by: pennifer | October 06, 2008 at 09:37 PM
i like this part of the post:"We'll have a blanket on the lawn next to the play structures. If you're looking for me, I'm pale and brown-haired, probably in pigtails, and will be accompanied by a small blond child in glasses. - Lisa" is very good

Human felicity is produced not so much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen , as by little advantages that occur every day .

Your blog is so funny that I can not help to finish it front and back. It is of help during my boring work.

Ramparts create Fountains of Fortune to imbue its defenders with amazing luck.

A friend of mine went to this Moxie meetup and she said that it was an exciting one. She met Moxie and the rest of the group. My friend also makes lots of friends in this meetup.

I like the writing structure of your blog and it does a pretty decent job of presenting the material.

I like the sound of this idea. I would be interested in prsenntieg on how WordPress is picking up in the college newspaper / journalism community as a publishing solution. I'm not exactly sure what track that would fall under, but I could highlight universities that use wordpress, how my own school paper uses wordpress, and some newspaper / magazine plugins that are essential.Although I feel like that only applies to a small minority or niche of the community here. Let me know what you think.

Never depend of haindng out free stuff that is money out of your pocket!!!!!!!!!!meetup.comStart a group or club.offer classes guest speakers or teachers offer a portion of the profit to the guest this way you can use their experience and portfolio to sell the event and all they need to do is talk and critique peoples work.If you do the above ask if you can record the event so for new clients that have joined the meeting after a few sessions but you retain the rights so that after he quits you will have material people can pay to learn.Host a on-line gamer events where the winner will be posted on the wall of fame until they hit the wall of shame (you do this to conserve space because the winner must come back to defend his title and if he does not take him off of the wall because gamers are hard core). Print their stats on the photoReferences :

michael father muskart: yes, there is a bug.the problem is that when you create an account it's not really linked to the feed aggregator plugin. so, for example, father muskart created an account as Father Muskrat , but your feed says that the author of your posts is muskart , so the plugin cannot match that to an already created account and just creates a new one. i wish i could turn this off, but there is no way.short term, i might be able to do some db hack to get things sorted out. long term, i'm thinking i might just write my own aggregation plugin. the one we're using is nice, but is obviously problematic. think i can come up with a better solution that fits with how we would like the site to work.sorry!
