Santa Barbara meetup?

Just to let folks know, I'll be in and out of heels for the next 3 weeks or so. If anyone wants to meet up in Santa Barbara, let me know.

If it remains as hot as it was today, I imagine I'll mostly be out of heels though.

I am going to be in LA in early Oct. If we can get a few more folks together we can make it a West Coast heel meet.

Any chance of making it in Las Vegas instead, or concurrently??

After reading the thread about the UK meetup (and turning absolutely green with envy) I'm all for a West Coast meetup. And being centrally located to all the areas suggested so far (SB, LA, Vegas) I'm not picky on where.
Is anyone still up for an October get together?

Not a chance, I'm afraid. I'm going to be occupied for the next nine months with writing my dissertation (PhD maths) and finding a job. Also, my wife will be home most of the time, so, as per usual, the heels and things will be buried in the closet.

:( Bummer.
Reading about all these heel outings has made me want to take some of my babies out for a day in the sun. But I think I'd only be willing to do it if I was joined by fellow heelaholics. I guess it's the whole safety in numbers thing.
Although Hollywood isn't far and it's not a rare sight to see all types of people dressed in pretty much anything you can imagine, I'm still not so sure I wouldn't chicken out after taking my first step.
Good luck with the dissertation. Maybe when you're done we can set up a meet to celebrate.

Nicole,

If we can make you change your mind, I could be around for a heel meet-up on Saturday Oct 9. Could be a good distraction from writing a thesis. I will be in LA, but if we get folks for a meet-up in Santa Barbara, I can drive there.

Right now, it's not really the thesis that's the problem. It's the job applications. Basically, I have to get off a batch of job applications every week until January.
Of course, the major problem (for a heel meetup, that is) is that my wife will be in town, which means the heels will be buried in my closet.
Thanks for the invite though.

Well, at least think about it. Maybe you'll be able to sneak out that day. (Golf with the buddies?)
I mean, how often are we going to get an East Coast heeler out here?

I apologise for the delayed response. Our server was down.

I've put a bit more thought into it now. If you are still interested in coming up to Santa Barbara, then I think that I will be available that day (Sat 9th Oct). Making a (false) excuse to leave home won't be necessary, since generally I do my work on campus rather than at home.

Bear in mind that I am a student and as such my schedule is subject to sudden changes. Also, I am currently stricken with chicken pox, and I do not know when I will be back in circulation.
I will probably have an outfit on campus, but I may not feel comfortable changing into it there. (Most of my colleagues are unaware of my interest in cross-dressing.)
I suggest that we meet somewhere in Downtown Santa Barbara on State Street. Do you have any particular preferences, with regard to what kind of place we should meet?
