I will be at Oakland airport Sunday morning for two hours close to 10am. Anyone wanna come over and have breakfast with me?

― donut bitch (donut), Monday, 3 May 2004 21:38 (twenty-two years ago)

@d@m will be bringing MARMALADE!...(in case you missed that from the LA FAP thread)

― donut bitch (donut), Monday, 3 May 2004 21:38 (twenty-two years ago)

(Sunday May 14th that is)

― donut bitch (donut), Monday, 3 May 2004 21:38 (twenty-two years ago)

It's tempting, but the traffic can be awful on Sunday mornings. That would probably be one of the most bizarre FAPs ever, though. Which appeals to my perverse side (i.e. all of me). Won't you be "airside" (see? I know) for the majority of your layover?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Monday, 3 May 2004 21:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Okay I just scanned the LA FAP thread and I'm still totally mystified by the marmalade thing. But don't explain...mystery is good.

Haha, I have no idea. I've just been jesting. Don't get me wrong.. I would love to meet up with you, however brief, if possible. But I think I'll be too busy running around a new airport figuring out where to exit and re-enter security, new flight, etc. making sure I get a window seat, etc. (since Southwest does this first-come-first-serve thing when it comes to seat assignment) to have time for any sort of Oakland airport FAP sadly. :( In any case, I wouldn't expect anyone in the bay area to go out of their way or care about lil' ol me...

I might be able to squeeze in a flight to SF sometime in the next month and a half, though.. who knows.

― donut bitch (donut), Monday, 3 May 2004 21:46 (twenty-two years ago)

But forget I said that.. back to OAKLAND!

WOOO WOOOOO!

The best train-side graffiti I've ever seen in my life was in Oakland, just north and just south of Jack London... it is spectacular.

Oh, I'll second this!

the oakland airport is tiny. you can run the length of the whole thing in ten minutes, probably. I love that airport! when I didn't travel very often, going to SFO was fun and exciting and exotic, but now it's just a headache.

― kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 16:16 (twenty-two years ago)

SFO is a stylish airport, but it is a bastard to find your way around.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 16:18 (twenty-two years ago)

it's not as confusing as de Gaulle or something though.

It also has shitty food in the international terminal. They could do better.

Sadly, @d@m, even our proposed M@rm@l@de Oaktown airport breakfast FAP won't happen since I won't be leaving the gate/ticket holder area. :( I'll probably be lying on the floor in line somewhere at some gate hoping to get a good seat for my flight back to Seattle. Think of me, and M@Rm@l@dE around 10am on Sunday.... please?

Teeny, I missed this last post - do you still need help with anything?

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 1 June 2004 14:48 (twenty-two years ago)

I went to Yoshi's for my birthday, wanted to add it to this thread:

Not only was it great cos we got to take off our shoes and stuff, but the California Roll was delicious and the Amtrak goes right past the window, which I LOVED.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 1 June 2004 14:50 (twenty-two years ago)

eh probably not, looks like I don't get to book the trip after all, the corporate office wants to handle it. Thanks though!

one month passes...

My brother does not seem interested in the prospect of exploring the East Bay. :(

― adam. (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 18 August 2004 16:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Also - he wants to go and see Electrelane. TWICE. :( :(

― adam. (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 18 August 2004 16:56 (twenty-one years ago)

what would you realy show him in oakland though? I like Oakland but it's not very fascinating to a visitor, I don't think. It's charms are revealed over time to people who live here. You should take him to the Ruby Room or RADIO though because it is all indie and shit there and that's all he cares about.

make him take BART to fremont and leave him there if you're feeling antagonistic.

Will be there Friday, but hoping and praying that the Dirtbombs play a standalone show.

They'd be perfect for Thee Stork Club, that's for sure.
