So, I'm sorry I titled this post with an outdated Parent Trap reference, but I just can't help myself!
Anyway....
What we really need in Omaha is a true spirit of community. What better way to spread the love than by organizing some kind of free event? Of course, we'll have to wait until the weather might be willing to cooperate (ie. spring), but there's nothing else stopping us. This post will act as a small planning hub to those who would like to get together.
I'm thinking we should plan something along the lines of a big potluck-type barbecue. Everyone brings a side dish or some finger food, some people bring tables, some people bring utensils, plates, etc. People bring their own chairs, and we all just hang out.
We could even make it a free-in!
You're probably saying, "What the hell is a free-in?" Well, I'm glad you asked! A free-in is sort of like a swap meet, except there's no buying and selling. People bring their Goodwill donation drop off stuff, set up tables, and just give it away or trade it for something else. I think that just giving things away that you no longer need really takes a load off my soul. It makes me feel better not having so much stuff.
So, we should have a giant barbecue this spring. You know it'll be fun, so you should go ahead and start helping me plan! Now go down in the comments and post some suggestions. Let's get this thing started :)
P.S. If you understood the reference to The Parent Trap, you get +3 cool people points. And by cool people points, I mean you're as lame as me!
Now that's a good idea! So does that mean if I didn't get the reference then I'm a cool person?
ReplyDeleteRight? Spread the word! We need to plan, and everyone is invited. This is why I need to amass more of a following. It means if you got the reference, you're cool to me- but that's definitely not saying much, is it?
