Yes we here at Metroblogging NYC (or MBNYC for all those acronym lovers out there) are crazy. Sometimes, we are so crazy that we throw together a drinking excursion at the very last minute. As it turns out Kathleen from LA ^[1] is in town this week so some of us are getting together to meet her. Also, it’s Fat Tuesday, a day in which (as I understand it) people are absolutely required to get drunk. It’s either that or we need to eat pancakes. I always get that part confused.

So here’s the plan:

Tonight 2/28 @ 7:00
Blue Owl ^[2]
196 2nd Ave @ 12th Street

Blue Owl is a new place we’ve heard about and have been trying to check out. It’s a speak-easy style cocktail bar with snacks, so really, what’s not to like?

Hope to see you there!
