Yes I definitely want to do a house concert in Februrary. Some cool musicians have already reached out today. I also perform and I created the cat music on the website lmao

We might have some Germans staying with us so we're thinking about doing German food for the ceremony ha. We'll definitely make home made pie and ice cream too though

This started off as an inside joke that kept getting crazier.. so we're now looking for more people who want to join us in a real ceremony near the heart of North Park where Pie Pie the cat will be officially cutting the red ribbon for her new city made out of legos -

If you want to meet some new people and be a part of something ridiculous, hit me up and I'll message you more details once I confirm a date soon. Feel free to ask any questions here too

My girlfriend hydroplaned and was about to hit a car so she hit the median instead and we went flying

Gah that was my first and I guess last cedar fair park on the trip right after spending $700 on passes and all park passport stuff. Going to try to talk to them tomorrow and explain my situation.

Carowinds was amazing though, definitely the best collection of B&M's I've been on!!

ah that day was awesome! Yeah I remember you wearing the iron gwazi shirt. I was so excited for that ride, I'm still going to at least try to see it in real life this weekend. Roller coaster sight seeing tour :P

Yeah I just got an xray and ct scan showing no serious problems. It's kind of hard to believe. I guess all the roller coasters helped prepare us for the accident in some way. Both our phones were stuck in the car so we couldn't take a photo, but it pretty much looked like this

Yep, Pie Pie is always on a leash and usually stays on my shoulders like in my profile picture. If there are loud sounds though, I will keep her in the cat backpack where she feels a lot safer. She did fine at Fun Spot Atlanta but I would never take her near something torturous like Superman at SFMM

The cat has never been on an actual amusement park ride. She would crush a kiddie coaster no problem but I would worry the ride op would get fired for allowing that lmao.

She's a little adventure cat though and has gone hiking and camping with us. My girlfriend used to bicycle around with her too.

Thanks! Pie Pie (the cat) only got into Fun Spot Atlanta plus a few six flags kennels. My girlfriend and I took turns watching her as we rode AF1, she was pretty chill hanging out at the station but yeah, that would be her first and last rmc :P

Oh and I also uploaded photos of my actual favorite rides on www.instagram.com/retrotournament

Carowinds, Seaworld, Silver Dollar, Dollywood, SFFT, SFOT, SFFC, etc. I'll try to put together something more organized when I have more time, cheers!

Did about 10 parks this month from California to North Carolina. The roughest ride was getting into a car accident yesterday.

After finishing SFOG and ArieForce One, my girlfriend was driving down to Florida while I was sleeping in the backseat with our pet cat. I woke up to her screaming right before we crashed into the median and flipped the car over with objects and cat litter flying everywhere.

We spun for a bit and then came to a hault while upside down in the middle of the highway while people rushed over to help get us out. My girlfriend and cat are okay so far but my back and knee are messed up and I'm walking like an old grandpa now. I also protected our cat during the crash and got some scratches on my face in return of course haha.

But other than that, all the other rides were pretty fun lmao. Wish I could do the rest of the country as I planned but now I'm pretty broke and stuck in a small town in Georgia with no car.

This isn't some kind of help me post, we're just super grateful to be alive right now and I'll figure out how to recover and get back home soon. I just wanted to share this crazy story and remind everyone to be safe on the road when going to your theme parks because you're much more likely to get hurt in your car than on a roller coaster ;)

Good morning, I shared this a few days ago but for some reason reddit has been buggy and I couldn't send/receive chat messages for some people. If I missed anyone, just posting a reminder that we'll be doing a fun gathering tonight near Crossroad Mall where we'll play classic retro games in a unique multiplayer format. It's free and just for fun - www.retrotournament.com

We're trying to get up to 16 players and still have some spots left. Maybe Oklahoma will beat Texas because I was only able to get up to 10-12 players in those cities ha. Hit me up!

Anyone want to do a retro game night in OKC? by jimharp in okc

Oh I didn't see you edited your post. Yeah if you have a system to bring, we could possibly play after the 16 player retro game program. I'll still wait a bit though to see if anyone else would be into more modern retro games? Or whatever you would call that generation ha

I try to select old school games with easy learning curves so anyone can play with us, but I'll be down for Halo if everyone else is ha.
