| | | How many DFW Area DF Members?
How many of you live close to the DFW area? Charlotte (Palefacegirl) and I got together and had a great time. I know there are 2 more of you who live fairly close by (Bill & Mark).
Anyone else around here? We need to plan another meeting -- maybe lunch, for starters. It's another beautiful sunny day today, isn't it!

Mark | I know, I look out my window and see rubber trash cans blowing around the street! I've learned not to use the containers on windy days.

I am up for a mini-meet. Let me know when and where.

I would have gotten here sooner but I was dxd in April w/T2 (see how fast I learned the language?) I was primarily looking at some messages from people suffering from Sleep Apnea and Diabetes as I am curious about the relationship. Tks. |

| | | Hi all! I started this thread a long time ago . . . just so happens that Charlotte (Paleface) and I are meeting at Northeast Mall today! I'd love to still plan a get-together for as many of us as are interested . . . maybe around Labor Day . . . or even sooner!
Let me know if any of you are interested, and if you have a good idea for location and what to do -- even something other than eating!

| | | Jan,
In theory, I get every other Friday off - this week is an off Friday (we are in a slow period so I may get this one off - yea!).
Sometimes there is too much going on and I don't get the day off but one of my scheduled off Fridays would be my best bet.
Mark

| | It's been a few years (already!) since I've been to Dallas... but, should I ever be in the area again, I'd love to meet up with y'all.
Ironically, my Dallas trips involved driving with polyurea and polydipsia in full force. Had I known you guys then, I probably could have avoided some unpleasantness later. Heh.
