And now I'm awake.

[randomness]

bedfull_o_books is taking a deserved rest, but I'm wide awake, and looking for food and conversation at what is, in greater Boston, a wildly inappropriate time for either.

As an experiment, I figured I'd see if anyone reading my LJ is both awake and interested in hanging out. I have a car, and I know how to use it. :)

(I will really be surprised if anyone answers, but I should be up for a bit.)

LOL!

um. i'm awake, and i could be game, except that i've had far, far too little sleep in the past few weeks. also i wouldn't say that i'm great company right at the moment.

but in other circumstances? absolutely. i live for this stuff. :)

Go sleep, definitely.

also i wouldn't say that i'm great company right at the moment.

*hug* You're always good company, dear.

but in other circumstances? absolutely. i live for this stuff. :)

I'll keep that in mind. Is this a good way to find you, or is another way better next time?

[wolfkitn.livejournal.com]

*hugs* LJ and email are the two ways. i check one or the other (or both) until i shut down. best to try both, just in case one is feeling frustrating. :)

I'd so love to take you up on this. I love middle of the night food outings. Unfortunately, I need to do the wise thing and decline. Marc is leaving for a work trip in the morning and I'll be solo-parenting for two days, so need as much sleep/cope as possible!

Maybe next time?

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Maybe next time?

Sure, sounds good. I don't see you enough.

Get lots of rest and good luck solo-parenting!

I just got off work, but I'm a little too beat for an outing at the moment. I'll be getting off late the next few days, so may be up for something tomorrow or the day after at similarly ungodly hours.

*nod* Take care, get rest.

Okay, cool. As I mentioned to wolfkitn, I may be out of town midweek, but that's not clear right now. In any case, I'll be back by Friday night.

It'll be great to see you!

[jtdiii.livejournal.com]

Sorry, wrong state. I could drive by your parent's house thoug... :)

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Say, are you usually up at this hour? Down in CT I don't usually have net access, but if there's another good way to reach you I'll use that.

[antoniusrex.livejournal.com]

Ah, I want my transporters, and I want them now, dammit...we could go and find some gnosh, ya know? I mean, with transporters, I'd have you at Canter's Deli faster than you can say Matzoh Ball Soup.

Ah, awake...

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Hell, if teleportation was available, I'd come get you and we'd blow right out of the States. It's about the right time for late lunch in Bangkok...

*sigh*

Be good to sit down and catch up some. Been way too long.

[antoniusrex.livejournal.com]

Indeed...maybe we should just meet up somewhere in the middle of the US and have lunch one day...

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Great idea! How about St. Louis? :)

[antoniusrex.livejournal.com]

Ooom...neat thought...Welcome to St. Louis, Louis! Just a matter of figuring out when...but that being said, would a Saturday be good?

[emilymorgan.livejournal.com]

Yep, I'm in the same boat. I'd LOVE to, but the drive would be a bit long. (Am in LA at the moment, at Steph's house.) Hope you ended up finding good conversation and/or good food and/or good dreams. :o)

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Am in LA at the moment

Amusingly, so's the guy whose comment you just replied to. :)

[wolfkitn.livejournal.com]

introduce them! :)

[holmes-iv.livejournal.com]

Alas, probably now moot, since emilymorgan is a fly-by-night. Actually, considering the dateline and all, she's probably been a fly-by-all-times-of-the-day-and-night, recently, but anyway she's almost certainly gone again by now.

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Yah, I just thought it was amusing she'd replied to his comment.

There'll be other times.

[monkeygod.livejournal.com]

well, its the right time of the day for me ;) can't help you with the food, but feel free to call me if you're late night bored :)

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Calling is hard because waking bedfull_o_books is easy, but I'll see if I can sometime.

[tyellas.livejournal.com]

I too am bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and I'd love to hang out with you again, but I think I'm a bit far for a drive.

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

I'd love to hang out again, too. But driving over would be...challenging. Alas.

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

stupid schedule tricks

Oh dear.

I just gave a call over to your place, but your phone was busy...which I take as a good sign.

[perci.livejournal.com]

Hey, where in or near the Boston/Cambridge area do you get food in the middle of the night, anyhow? In my experience, it's hard to get food after dark around here, let alone after midnight!

(Yeah...I know about IHOP...but I was thinking, you know, food.)

[wolfkitn.livejournal.com]

*raises the flag and hums "taps" in memoriam for the dear, departed dolly's...*

[totient]

Chinatown is a good bet until 3 (or on weekends, 4). On this side of the river, Cambridge Common is quite yummy and open until 1 on weeknights and 2 on weekends. But yes, at 11:00 on a weeknight one could drive to New York and there'd be more restaurants open when you got there than there were in Boston when you left.

[totient]

Oh, and Wangs is open til 1 as well.

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

palmwiz had some good suggestions, which is fitting for a guy who used to compile an online list of Boston late-night eats. He also mentioned the New York option, which may be a nod to my oft-repeated, though not yet executed, threat to drive to Montreal to find late-night food.

Montreal has an impressive amount of late-night food for a city its size.

As for last night, I was actually thinking of going to Stop and Shop and going over with the food and cooking it. Stop and Shop in Everett is open 24 hours 5 nights of the week.

[tactical-grace.livejournal.com]

Drop me a private line sometime. Would be nice to see you.

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

I will! It's been ages!

[miss-chance.livejournal.com]

Well, crap! I as up and just farting about, but I was farting about on IRC #elbows instead of here!

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Aieee! The funny thing is that I usually try there, but my luck has been pretty bad there lately.

Next time I'll post here and look there.

[wolfkitn.livejournal.com]

so, it's 10:30pm on *tuesday* -- you around? i'm going to head to MIT, then possibly herrell's, possibly with a group. if i knew a cell # for you, i'd call it. *sigh*

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Ack, tonight, I was out!

[wolfkitn.livejournal.com]

s'arright, i went elsewhere instead -- i'd have felt majorly guilty if you'd gone to herrell's looking for me... :(

[evilbunnymayhem.livejournal.com]

LOL.. I'm up too! not unusual as it's only 12:30 and I'm a night owl. Luau has me up all hours and covered in odd colors of paint.
teehee.

[r-ness.livejournal.com]

Yes, but were you up at 2AM Monday when I posted?

Good luck with all the Luau stuff!
