<p>I will try to wear jeans which are not frayed on the bottom so as not to embarrass anyone. That’s my concession to the group. I do not wear makeup. The end.
Edit-Oh wait. I do use Chapstick. Is that considered to be makeup?</p>
<p>How bad is the weather up there?/ we had tornadoes today. Thanks heavens not in our immediate area.</p>
<p>I have a prada purse. Bought it for 20 bucks on 42nd st. I watched them put the prada label on it too… crooked.</p>
<p>Supposed to be windy on Friday, a decent day (sunny and 40’ish on Saturday) with a few snow showers on Sunday. It is February in NY, after all. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Maybe we should all wear our kids’ college sweatshirts – actual, hopeful, or imagined!</p>
<p>^^ I don’t own a college sweatshirt from either school. Am I a bad parent?? I have tshirts, but not sweatshirts. And its too cold for tshirts.</p>
<p>Since my son is an athlete, he’s been giving us sweatshirts – and tee shirts – for Christmas for the past three years. And because we are part of the (sport) parents group, I have a lot of clothes of all weights and styles in the college color. Plus buttons, hats, scarves etc. You <em>don’t</em> want to show up in the wrong color!</p>
<p>^^^ Can you bring an assorted selection??</p>
<p>LOL
There’s not much assorted … it’s <em>all</em> red and white … when it’s not grey sweatshirts! And it’s spring – so we are definitely in RED mode!</p>
<p>cnp55, I’m not sure we can really call February “spring” - but you get points for optimism!</p>
<p>We had gigantic snowflakes a veritable blizzard yesterday evening, but it turned into rain. It was gorgeous for about an hour though!</p>
<p>…just saw this thread.</p>
<p>Pretty funny, I’ve actually been to that place, not next door but not far either.</p>
<p>I’m not coming, but have fun.</p>
<p>Hey – lacrosse is a <em>spring</em> sport. Starting February 7 this year, at our house we are “all lacrosse, all the time”. Therefore – it’s spring! Opening day is actually Saturday 2/21 – the last two weeks have been scrimmages. It’s SPRING!!!</p>
<p>There are even some who will term the next few months “the most wonderful time of the year!”</p>
<p>There is also a little known codicil to the Groundhog Day story. Essentially, if the groundhog bites the mayor when he’s looking for his shadow, then it’s spring whether there’s a shadow or not! OK? IT’s SPRING!!</p>
<p>Monydad- please come. My DH would love another male to talk to</p>
<p>I’ve received no permission from my kids to be talking about their lives with strangers on an internet site in an identifiable manner, consequently I only feel comfortable participating here anonymously. That’s in general. Specifically, Sunday I have plans.</p>
<p>Jym626, I’m surprised that your DH is the only guy who’s coming. Where are all the other CC Dads in the tri-State area?</p>
<p>I declare it spring - the little patch of south facing yard by my side door has bulbs poking their green tips above the ground. Yay!</p>
<p>Monydad
Who says we talk about college or our kids?! One attendee last year also preferred more confidentiality and did not wish to share her last name. That was perfectly fine. Besides, speaking for myself, with my fading memory I wouldn’t recall any conversation anyway.</p>
<p>I also don’t own any college sweatshirts from my kids’ schools. I probably have one form my own alma mater somewhere, but odds are that it doesn’t fit anymore!</p>
<p>I am here!! The rental car place gave us a PT Cruiser! Fun. Dealing with tons of paperwork, taxes, repairs, etc. Not fun.</p>
<p>REQUEST!!! Any and all tristate CCdads and spouses! Come on down!! Please-- need a good representation from the man cave!</p>
<p>BTW, had to go pick something up from that shopping center where Cosi’s is. See you all Sunday.</p>
<p>BTW, if I have to give my DH back his laptop (mins isnt picking up someone’s signal) you will find me at Starbucks.</p>
<p>And you’re lovin’ the temperature up here in the northern climes, aren’t you.</p>
