Ah, that sounds like so much fun! You know one thing that really bothers me about being thousands of miles away from almost all of of you guys? Not being able to hang out and do crazy things. *shrug* Maybe some time? ;)

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

Yes, you need to come rock with us some time. It's too bad I didn't know you better when you came to South Dakota last time, we could have hung out! *pouts*

[soliloquy.livejournal.com]

I'm excited for all the food we can enjoy in an awesome city like New York! :-D

The only panels I want to see are Robot Chicken: 6:45 to 7:45pm in the IGN Theater, and Venture Brothers, which is right after Robot Chicken in the same room.
I wish they had better panels. NYCC is nowhere near as cool as San Diego Comic Con in terms of panels.

[autumndandelion.livejournal.com]

I need to check out the panel listing to decide if there's anything I'd be interested in.

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

yeah, NYCC doesnt have as good of panels, but it will be fun. I agree, I'm excited for NYC food! :D

What DAY are the panels you want to see on? Nyar?? NM, they are on Friday :)

It's strange that con "closes" at 7, but there are panels after that... maybe those are just the dealer room hours???

Also, for friday, Do you wanna eat supper before or after the panels? (If we eat after, you can always get a bunch of snacks *read*softpretzelofawesomeness*read* before and during the panel :)

[soliloquy.livejournal.com]

I think eating after should be fine. I <3 snacks! :-)

I'm going to be off work in a little over an hour and I'm so excited!

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

*snickers at the statement " I plan on cosplaying ME!"* but if you're me, who will *I* be? ;D hee hee

Blech, I hate Mickey Ds. What are you doing for supper on Friday? maybe we can all get together for supper. What time does your panel with the ME guest end?

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

I know that ME=Mass Effect. I'm just being a snotface ;D

Please let me know if you are seriously considering going to ninja new york with us. I need to make reservations. :)

We MIGHT go on friday night after the panel and do a late supper thing, what do you think about that?

[autumndandelion.livejournal.com]

Maybe split a meal with someone?

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

Jenn & I have been there before too, but no one else in our group has. It's an awesome theme restaurant (also, I was HIGHLY impressed with thier high-tech toilets! :D)

That'd be awesome if you could come! yay! Let me know! :D

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure they have more tickets. But it's on thursday, would you even be able to be in town that early on that day? Nyar?

[autumndandelion.livejournal.com]

I think we should plan to get there at least two and a half hours before your flight is scheduled to take off. The only thing is, will all our luggage fit into my Honda Civic? How much are y'all fixing to bring?

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

So we should leave the hotel about 8:30AM you think?

I think our luggage should fit just fine. It fits just fine into my little Kia Rio. Together, Jenn & I only have one big bag and the bo staff.

Thanks again so much for the ride!! u rock ka! :)

Robina and I looked at the ninja new york site again, and we found something I'll eat. I'm hoping what's there isn't their full menu, though. It seems strange that there are no rice-only or rice-with-veggie dishes that don't involve sushi.

But I will go with you all, I think.

[micaturtle.livejournal.com]

To quote autumndandelion:
"Mica, I called Ninja New York, and they have lots of vegan food. The woman who answered the phone was very knowledgeable about veganism, and she told me that the menu has a vegetarian and vegan section. How awesome is that?" (source (http://autumndandelion.livejournal.com/1582283.html?thread=5658827#t5658827))

Not sure if the vegetarian menu is HIDDEN or something??? o_O

[jem0000000.livejournal.com]

They had vegetarian stuff but it included sushi (veggie sushi, but I dislike the seaweed, so that's out). But yes, I think it's a partial menu.

Sounds tentatively good to me!
