Birthday plans

This year is unusual. My birthday is coming up, and I still just barely know with whom I'll be celebrating at all, not to mention how. Normally, my birthday parties have some sort of thought behind them, I'd invite everyone I know (more or less) home, and there'd be many nice people and good things to eat and much fun.

This year, I just arrived in Stanford. I know only a few here. And all the usual venues to get to know more people haven't quite geared up yet, since the academic year hasn't started yet. Hence, herewith, my call to anyone regularly reading me.

Are you in the Bay Area? Would you like to go out on a pub somewhere with me, and probably sigfpe, and celebrate my birthday with a drink or three? Poke me!

(complexzeta - I know you used to be hereabouts. Are you still in the area? Care to meet up?)
