PrintOkay So I Did Something Stupid at Vinemeet
News Type: Event — Sat Sep 8, 2007 10:06 PM EDT
That @!$%# is in deep!
advertisement
The weekend is almost over, and I had finally slept off my hang over. As I emerge from the room bright eyed and rested, an official looking woman reprimanded us for parking our cars on the road. Since I had parked on the road in order to avoid the awkward backing out of the driveway tomorrow, I got the idea that if I backed into the driveway, I would be better prepared to leave in the morning...
...Well things didn't work out according to my plan. I missed the driveway and planted my car in the dirt on a 45 degree incline on the side of the mountain. We all go dirty digging around the tires and trying to figure out how to get the car out of this ditch when someone finally had a viable solution: call a tow truck. It was at that moment - and not before - I remembered that I had AAA.
Go ahead and have your laughs. I am sharing this with you all because if I don't you will hear about it from others and I would rather the embarrassment come directly from me.

What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

AAA made me sign a waiver saying that they are not responsible for any damage done to my car before the guy pulled it out of the hole...Yes I take responsibility...It's out now and there doesn't seem to be any internal damage. I know I'll have to get it checked when I get back into the city...
Alright, I'm ready for the ridicule...

I believe this occured mere moments after I hung up the phone. So in a way... I really should have told you what I was supposed to tell you...
...Jesus, It's my fault.

Hey, those things happen to the best of us, kymlee - no big deal. I'm glad the car seems to be fine. I want to hear about all the Vinemeet "war stories". :-)

If that was the most embarrassing thing to happen then you're pretty much in the clear, from what I gather...

Sorry kiddo. I've been making fun of you behind your back since Saturday morning, when I "heard about it from others."
Glad you got it out, glad you all appear to be alive! (though possibly barely)

Viki,
I just listened to your message today, sorry I missed your call. I just re-read the email I wrote to you. Wow.

Hearing it first hand doesn't make it any less ridiculous, if I were there I'd of made fun of you too...how long did it take you to realize you had AAA? Perhaps if you took Lauhal's advice and used AA you'd have remember about AAA!

I blame Old Fogey. It's all his fault.
He should have went to the Vinemeet so that you guys wouldn't have been without adult supervision.

If it was left up to us guys, some of us were clearing brush and a path to drive it down the mountain side. I was betting it would have cleared the road once it went airborne and splashed into Big Bear Lake :) I had my camera ready and everything until someone came up with the tow truck ideal. I am sure I could have got more hits on YouTube than Chocolate Rain ;)
I have a great time and loved meeting you Kymlee!

I was actually telling Gwen last night that it was the constant joking and positive vibes that kept me from just freaking out. I love all my Newsvine friends. Even if I haven't met you in person yet, I am almost positive that most of you would make great real life friends. I can't wait for the next Vinemeet. Ooooh! Perhaps in Temecula, for wine tasting, then we'd have to pretend to be civil. LMAO

Temecula
Oh, no no no . . .lol. The next one has to be more north. Besides, Northern CA is where the REAL wine growers live. And Napa would be closer to Seattle and stuff. Honestly, I would like to see us starting to plan if we are going to do this annually. You can get much better rates on stuff if you reserve it way out.

I believe the next one is Vinemeet East, but there is a small contingent that wants to put one together in Seattle as well. Dr. Frank is currently doing some reconnaissance in the Pacific Northwest for that one.

It is going to take me at least a month to recover from driving to So Cal . . there is no freaking way I'm driving to Turkey. LOL

Seattle might definitely be doable
I bet we could caravan, too. Folks the furthest south could just drive up the coast, either parking and riding with others or someone could just rent a van and we could all go together. I would even drive a LITTLE. :D
