Home for the holidays
I fly back to Tampa on the 21st, and return here on the 27th. In theory, I'll be spending most of the 22nd in Tampa--visiting former co-workers for lunch that day, and probably wrapping up with an evening dinner somewhere in town. (I may also be around another day/evening in Tampa, depending on available time, solar flare activity, etc.)
Anyone interested in getting together should let me know about their availability and preferences. I expect to see some of the "old" group that I knew there, at least Mirage,
varjohaltia and
hellesfarne (and possibly
haikujaguar and
elusivetiger if they have interest and available time), but there's also the quasi-nexus that's formed around
rancourt that includes people who've been there for a while that I didn't see regularly when I lived in Tampa like
kiarrh,
argentee and
dbcooper. (Whew. This probably suggests two evenings at the least if I can manage it. I'd also like to attempt to catch Vince and the mythical Bart Fox, but they tend to be out of town for the holidays.) Suggestions about where to go--for dinner, wiseguy!--are also welcome; I'd probably default to the Tampa Bay Brewing Company in Ybor, presuming it's still open, but there may be many other cool inexpensive restaurants that have appeared there within the last two years. As a forewarning, the coyote does not expect to be showing up with any gifts this time 'round, even small tokens of affection--four months of unemployment tends to crimp that.
I'd ask anyone if they have any suggestions for lunch on the 22nd, too, since my former supervisor asked me where I want to go and I want something more intelligent than "hey, you live there, I don't."

FEEESH!!!
Kaisen Sushi on Dale Mabry... best sushi... and not just my opinion... voted the best a couple of years running, prob. more by now....
The best I've had so far, and believe me, I've been trying... and yet, very reasonably priced. Excellent cooked sushi and other Japenese meals for the non-piscine oriented.

My suggestion: meet at Verizon/1 Telecom Parkway (directions can be provided) at 8pm front loop, and we'll go out there together from there?

If you haven't eaten at Baraka, or had coffee at Sacred Grounds, I recommend both. If you have...well, I still recommend both.

Or any number of cool Disney-grounds restaurants.

Alas! He'll still be far away from both of us in the LA area.
No news on the move. I need a job there first!
