Monitorama about travel

[roidrage]

Totally up for doing something nice on the weekend.

[obfuscurity]

I'm flying in on the 26th and out on the 30th.

[roidrage]

Coffee and breakfast at Dwell in Cambridge on the 27th it is!

[roidrage]

Flights booked! \o/

[jnewland]

@jnewland @benburkert would you guys be up for sharing an apartment?

[dylanegan]

@jnewland sweet.

I'll be in town from the 26th to the 2nd. We should do dinner on the 26th. @roidrage and myself get in around 19:30. I can organise a place if I get some numbers.

/cc @imbriaco @josephruscio @quirkey

[jnewland]

A lot of @github/ops is sharing an airbnb already. I'm in for dinner for sure.

[josephruscio]

@dylanegan making travel plans now, but I'm probably taking the red-eye in the evening of the 26th, so I can't make dinner that night. Definitely looking forward to hanging out with people!

[roidrage]

@josephruscio coffee and breakfast at Dwell on 27th! :)

[dylanegan]

OK, so I'm booked in for the same flights as @roidrage.

If we don't make it to Boston then it is because I decided to get really drunk at the Clubhouse in Heathrow. I assume it'll go down as follows. While we were dining and wining (just me on the wining) in the Clubhouse, I decided that it would be a great time to hop in the spa (see below). Unbeknownst to me, you can't just get naked in the Clubhouse and carry your drink to the spa. So I'll assume at this point that @roidrage has already distanced himself from me and I am proceeding towards the spa. Unfortunately, something I didn't immediately notice, I am being chased down by staff, from every angle. With @roidrage unwilling to help me, I am unsure as to what to do next. A quick judgement call and I decide, fuck it, I want that spa! I make a dash for it, but mistakenly take the wrong turn and head out of the Clubhouse. I am suddenly in the busy causeway of the Terminal. In my birthday suit and a glass of fine Champagne. TBC.

Also, just a reminder, I am naked during most of this ordeal.

[quirkey]

@dylanegan I'll be traveling with the whole @paperlesspost/ops crew but we should be getting there for dinner on the 26th, too. We definitely need to eat/drink/catchup

[roidrage]

@quirkey \o/ looking forward to seeing you guys again! :)

[dylanegan]

@qurikey how many people would that be? Just so I know what kind of table size we might need. Also you can't do team mentions outside of the scope of your organisation. 😉

[quirkey]

@dylanegan 5 including myself. Ill have to get back to you on arrival time

Found a picture representing our upcoming spa experience quite nicely:

[obfuscurity]

I'll be arriving early afternoon on the 26th. I should be around for dinner/drinks/whatever that evening. At some point I'll need to excuse myself to inspect the venue but that'll probably happen on the 27th.

[dylanegan]

OK. What time is good for dinner(s)?

Also I have a free apartment with a swimming pool. PoolConf 2013? 😉 Maybe not.

[quirkey]

Some changes in plans - we won't be up to Boston until the night before the
conf (weds) and there will be only 4 of us (including myself). Down for
dinner that night though.

[jnewland]

Just booked, I'll be in town the 24th - 30th.

[dylanegan]

/cc @asenchi because of https://twitter.com/asenchi/status/299564100176969728.

[asenchi]

I'll be there the 24th - 30th.!

[roidrage]

[asenchi]

Thinking of putting on a drinkup the 26th, does that feel like a good day for everyone? I need to find a bar.

[asenchi]

@dylanegan If there's room I'd like to join for dinner.

[dylanegan]

@asenchi yeah, we can do dinner and then drink up? I can locals for recommendations on a bar. What kind of bar are you looking for?

[dylanegan]

For those of us staying for the weekend (@benburkert?) some suggestions for a quick weekend trip.

[obfuscurity]

@asenchi I've heard good things about The Meadhall.

[roidrage]

@asenchi you guys sharing an apartment? if so, happen to have a bed/couch? :)

[obfuscurity]

@roidrage I'd share my room at the Kendall but I only booked a single King. 👑💩

[asenchi]

@dylanegan We'd look from somewhere 21+, can hold a hundred or so people (not sure how many people will be in town), basically the bigger the better. And obviously good beer. I can get anything you have added to our internal event app.

[asenchi]

@roidrage I'll check, it's GitHub paid for so not sure policy here, also we have a lot of people and I am not able to make the decision. But let me check. What dates are you in town?

[roidrage]

@asenchi: will be in from March 26 to April 2nd. thank you!

[asenchi]

@roidrage Ok, we only have it until 12pm on the 30th, so you'd need arrangements for after that. I'll let you know.

[roidrage]

@asenchi that'd absolutely work! :)

[asenchi]

@roidrage Yeah, we've gotcha. It may be tight so you may end up with a couch or a chair FYI, but that should work.

Email me at curt@gh and I'll give you the addresses.

[dylanegan]

• Park
• Publick House
• Stoddards

For you @asenchi. I can get more if you need.

[dylanegan]

Trying to organise a private dining experience on the 27th if people would be interested. Will see if they have availability for 6+ people.

[asenchi]

@dylanegan Thanks for the venues, I'd be interested in dinner on Wednesday. I am confused though, dinner on Tuesday and Wednesday or did you just move it to Wednesday.

Either way, I am in, one or both days. ✌️

[dylanegan]

@asenchi, yeah, I usually eat dinner every day. 😉

[dylanegan]

So thinking about booking a table for 18 people on the 27th. Considering there'll be a bunch of Hubbers in town I think the extra chairs can be filled.

Everyone eats meat, right?

[quirkey]

YES

[dylanegan]

Hit a slight snag with the restaurant and larger sizes. It comes with a minimum so I think that'll be out unless someone wants to sponsor a dinner? 😉

Will see what I can sort out.

[obfuscurity]

[obfuscurity]

/cc @vvuksan

[vvuksan]

I can supply a queen airbed if you guys need additional sleeping spots

[bgentry]

@dylanegan apparently I will also be in Boston for Monitorama March 26-30. ✌️

[roidrage]

[obfuscurity]

@bgentry I forget, is your email blake@ or bgentry@?

[freeformz]

@obfuscurity he is b@

[obfuscurity]

Thanks @freeformz!

[dylanegan]

So I have tentatively found a place, but they can only accommodate a group on the 26th. @asenchi has the drink been organised for that date yet? Can it be the 27th?

[asenchi]

@dylanegan At this point we will be doing it Tuesday (dependent on venue) because we are trying to overlap with EclipseCon. Will know more today I hope.

[dylanegan]

@asenchi OK great. I think I have until the weekend to cancel so if you could let me know that'd be great. Otherwise I'll just let them know that it'll be another time.

[dylanegan]

Maybe Monitorama 2014. 😉

[obfuscurity]

Does anyone have a canonical list of Hubber-related activities for this week? I'm trying to populate my calendar with breakfasts, dinners, etc so I don't forget anyone or anything.

[obfuscurity]

Here's my calendar (switch to week view) in case anyone's interested. All of the conference events are on there as well.

[bleything]

NOBODY TOLD ME HEY MARSEILLES WERE PLAYING

[obfuscurity]

@bleything Hey Marseilles is playing.

[bleything]

Oh cool.

[dylanegan]

I have two spots available for dinner on Wednesday at 18:00 at http://mentonboston.com.

[roidrage]

@dylanegan I may be up for this :)

[josephruscio]

Think the @librato crew will be doing a dinner and craft beer crawl tomorrow evening if anyone is interested. Interesting locations:

• Cambridge Brewing Company
• Lord Hobo's
• Meadhall

[bgentry]

@dylanegan I would be interested but my flight doesn't land until ~18:00.

@josephruscio craft beer crawl sounds intriguing, what's the plan on timing?

[josephruscio]

@bgentry no hard plans yet, I imagine we'll start with some food around 17:00-18:00 and go from there? I imagine people will be around until ~22:00-23:00 at least? It is an early start on Thursday ;-).

[eric]

I get in at 6pm on Wednesday. As long as someone broadcasts the current state of the crawl, I'll try to track it down after I check in to the hotel.

[bleything]

What @eric said.

[josephruscio]

@eric @bleything @bgentry (anyone else) I'll tweet it from my account with an @reply to @monitorama. So just make sure you're following @josephruscio and @monitorama on Twitter.

The furthest of those three is Lord Hobo's and it's only 0.5m from the hotel. So I'm thinking rough order of events will be Cambridge Brewing Company -> Lord Hobo's -> Meadhall -> Hotel Bar

[dylanegan]

Thank you @obfuscurity for an amazing week at @monitorama.

[obfuscurity]

Thank all of you for making it shawesome.

[quirkey]
