If there were bees near you, would you go to a meetup?
Topic reswitched!
-
Yes! But I don't think many people Are in Wisconsin!
-
I'm still undecided about this. There's so many good people out there, but it only takes one crazy to ruin all the fun.
-
@MrsBrewer: @Boogs: Sorry guys. It double posted, so I changed the topic.
-
I was starting to think I was crazy lol. Maybe change the topic on the other since there are no replies?
-
@Boogs: Fixed!
-
-
Yes. I want to meet all of my Hellobee friends! It's so much harder with lo's but I know I'll meet some of you someday!
@boogs - we're not all crazy.
-
@mediagirl: True story, but I'm scaredy of Russian roulette.
-
Yes, definitely!!!
-
I've been torn on this one. There's been lots of talk about a Boston bee meet up, but since I haven't gotten pregnant yet I'm kind of unsure. I would be worried that ppl would think I'm a weirdo wanna be preggo psycho baby snatcher or something. Which I'm not
but I wouldn't want other ppl to feel uncomfortable about that.
-
@mrs. bird: Nobody would think you are crazy! We're all part of a good group here.
-
Definitely! Still need to get an atl meetup together!
-
Yep! We had a Toronto meetup with @Oliviaoblivia and @Emahlee. It was great! We went to Starbucks and chatted away!
-
sure! i'd love to host a dc area one sometime in the future!
@MrsBrewer: my hubs is from your neck of the woods and we'll be there in 3 weeks! unforch, our few days there are packed with family stuff and a wedding, but it would have been fun to meet!
-
I've been to several organized via Weddingbee. There's always a huge interest expressed online, but it has been difficult to get attendance up at the actual event.
I love them! I love the excuse to meet new people, and it is always easy to connect since we are all pretty much in the same phase of life, or very interested in it.
For anyone who is on the fence, I promise it will NOT be awkward and no one will give you a hard time or think you are weird if you aren't at the exact same stage (for the PP who said she would feel weird going to a Hellobee meetup without being pregnant).
-
Totally, but I think there's only one other bee in Florida.
-
Yes, and fully plan on it when there is a Boston.area one!
@mrs. bird: hope to see you, pregnant or not!!
-
Yup. But I'm alone in Montreal.
-
Yes, I love meeting people online! I have had nothing but good experiences... after the college years atleast.
-
@Mrs. Cowgirl: A DC meetup has been talked about several times. I think it would be fun! Hopefully, LO and I could be there.
-
@Rubies: If you have one in Toronto next month, i'd be up for it!
-
@caffeinated: Reallllly??? You're visiting (home?)??? Where in TO do you live/visit? When will you be in town?? Can you sense my excitement?
-
Yes!
-
I totally would!!!! I love my bee friends. No one is up in northern California though!! lol
-
Totalllly!!!
-
@Rubies: LOL, i couldn't stop laughing at your post. I'll be in town for the whole month (woohoo!) in the asian 'burbs.
-
I think the Weddingbee ones were less awkward because everyone could drink... Lol. No liquid courage to help start conversations for HB meetups!
-
I would loooooove too. But I think @volksgirl is the only bee in my area.
All the fun bees are on the east coast it seems lol -
@dharmainitiative: Which part of NorCal? I'm in the Bay Area and have family on the coast and in Chico.
-
Yes! I'm trying to organize one but the response/interest is pretty low. ALittleP and I met up at my house and I went to see her when she was in the hospital on bed rest...when she's settled in with her new baby we will plan a Seattle area meet up. It's difficult to find time with little ones bc you have to coordinate around naps and I like to have family time on the weekends...so I'm maybe thinking of doing a weekend lunch with kids/spouses
-
@chopsuey119: we should meet up when I visit my friends in GA! Kennesaw, Marietta and Woodstock!
-
@caffeinated: @Rubies: I'm in! Where?! When!?
-
I would go but there are no bees in Tokyo
-
@caffeinated: Markham? Richmond Hill? LOL.
-
@oliviaoblivia: We'll definitely plan one for August!
-
@bpcmarj: @mrs. bird: woohoo! I think that meet up is going to be a freakin' blast. I just hope it's not planned the week I'm due. HAHA!
@Arden: I think there are several Florida bees? I can think of a few of the top of my head - artbee, jholler for 2!
-
Yes, but I feel like it would be hard to get everyone together between nap times.
@Arden: I'm in Florida!
-
We had one in New York but it has been hard to coordinate another one with everyone's schedules. =(
-
There are so many that I would love to meet IRL but I'm such a chicken! And trips are always quick weekend trips so time is an issue.
but I wouldn't want other ppl to feel uncomfortable about that.
