> What's the neighborhood like now? It used to be pretty cool around there.
Carl & Cole? Pretty much still the same. Slightly chichi, but in a less arch sort of way. And there's still no parking...
And dang it -- if you got fam'ly round these parts, y'all c'mon by!
(Seriously, drop a line, we'll have coffee. Or a drink. Half a drink for me, since I have no tolerance, but maybe they'll put in extra onions for me...)

Hmmm...didn't LOOK like HALF last night...and I notice you DID get both those onions!! :) (kidding, you know, right?)
It was a perfect evening for SF - no wind, warm enough to walk around and I found parking. The bar was cool but a little loud. Dr. Bob is also cool but not loud at all. He was very relaxed and warm and incredibly nice. I would have loved to have more time to chat in a less challenging place.
Racer and I made our way down the street for dinner. (She is gorgeous, btw, if anyone is interested, though very married and obviously sweet on her guy.) We had great food and talked about Babble, books, music, our family and a million other things. I haven't had so much fun in a very long time.
I had the opportunity to meet Fallsfall a month or so ago too. And we had a great time as well. It has solidified for me that most people here really are themselves, on or off the board. I consider these friends a tremendous gift. Thank you, Bob, for this site and for meeting with me. You are very special.
Hugs,
Daisy

Wow! That's so cool that you guys actually met up! I'm going to get a job and make enough money so that I can go to San Francisco when Dr. Bob goes to the APA meeting in 2008(?). I'll look for my old neighborhood and I'll ride BART. It'll be so weird to see my old house.
> It was a perfect evening for SF - no wind, warm enough to walk around and I found parking. The bar was cool but a little loud.
I want to go to a bar too. I ordered a drink at a bar once, it was a peach schnapps. A friend told me to try it.
>Dr. Bob is also cool but not loud at all. He was very relaxed and warm and incredibly nice. I would have loved to have more time to chat in a less challenging place.
I'm quiet too. I'm not nearly as loud in real life as I am here. LOL OK, I'm talking about myself too much.
Do you like bars? I hate it when it's too noisy too.
> Racer and I made our way down the street for dinner. (She is gorgeous, btw, if anyone is interested, though very married and obviously sweet on her guy.)I read in an old post that Racer was beautiful.
> We had great food and talked about Babble, books, music, our family and a million other things. I haven't had so much fun in a very long time.
That sounds super fun! I don't know if I would have anything to talk about. I don't really have a life. Do people want to hear about Hammie's adventures? LOL
> I had the opportunity to meet Fallsfall a month or so ago too. And we had a great time as well. It has solidified for me that most people here really are themselves, on or off the board. I consider these friends a tremendous gift.So...online friends can be real life friends too. That's wonderful!

What a classy and sweet post, Dr. Bob.
Not that I expected anything less, just wanted to say I noticed ;-)

The idea of SF traffic, particularly SF traffic snarled up with the addition of the thousands of bicycles nee Critical Mass, Friday commute traffic no less led me to spend a slightly less hectic evening entertaining a well-deserving canine-friend of (infamous) Zen's at the beach.
Had I gone, well--- I've never been called gorgeous before, but there's always a first. ;)

It wouldn't be accurate -- she's GREAT company, and I'm only sorry Dr Bob missed a wonderful dinner with us.
Dr Bob was also a charmer, and I hope we all have a chance to get together again.
I feel very fortunate to have had this opportunity.

Don't you have friends in real life, Dr Bob? Don't people find it strange that he wants to hang out with a bunch of women in the grip of transference? Don't people find that just a little disconcerting?

No. I don't find it strange at all.

Please don't jump to conclusions about others or post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down.

Feelings of outright love, seeing if anyone else is in love, meeting gorgeous women for drinks.... (just stating facts from a couple of on-going threads)
Personally, I'm thinking of becoming a Psychiatrist..
Admin is pretty social lately :-)

>I know this is boilerplate wording Dinah, and I'm not arguing on behalf of the original poster whose views are seperate from mine, but perhaps consider that people in a position of high responsibilty or authority should be the ones most scrutinized, even if as you say, it leads them to feel 'accused'.

The PBC was not related to Dr. Bob. It was for posting something that could be considered jumping to conclusions about posters, or that could lead them to feel accused or put down. Neither of whom to my knowledge have said or demonstrated that they are a bunch of women in the grip of transference for Dr. Bob.

If Dr. Bob believes that that was a respectful statement about those posters, or that it was not in fact jumping to conclusions about them, he can always override my decision.

I guess this is why I don't post over here much. But who do you think you are to interpret MY motives or make such statements that insinuate lots of negatives about MY life? I realize it was directed to Dr. Bob but it was even more insulting to be sort of an aside in your criticism.
It actually takes courage to meet people IRL, no matter what the circumstances.
I've worded this 10 difference ways so I'll stop. What I really wanted to say isn't lady-like. I will ask this: Do you enjoy being a kill-joy?

I understand that you are upset and feel hurt, but please be sensitive to other posters' feelings even if yours are hurt, and please don't post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down.
If you or others have questions about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:

Follow-ups regarding these issues, as well as replies to the above posts, should of course themselves be civil.
