Los Angeles (SGLA) Public Events

bean said:
If you're looking to get into SGLA (or SGLBC or SGOC) here's some events you might want to consider attending. It's so we can meet you and know that you're not a creepy lurker and you can meet us and know that we're awesome in our own special way.

so post here and let us know if you're coming out so we can try to meet you.

and people who are already members in the groups can post here so the new members know who to look for.

please remember that if you're going out to meet new people at dinner, bring money to pay. i know it sounds obvious but we've had problems before and we WILL take your thumbs.

Also, if you come out, try to find one of us and say hi. Simply being in the same place as us doesn't count as "meeting" us, and you're going to have to make that effort if you want to get into the group. Also, upload a photo so we know what you look like when you RSVP to the events, and start a journal so we can leave comments telling you how awesome it was to meet you.

UPCOMING EVENTS:

There might be more! Look at the end of the thread!

What's that? You can't possibly make it? Fear not! You just have to put a little more effort into it, so we know you mean it. Check out SGOC and SGLBC and see if they have any events coming up, and make friends with those kids, then just get one of them to vouch for how fucking awesome you are and we'll let you into SGLA.

Can't make it to OC? Well, you're not entirely screwed, but you're probably going to be waiting for awhile. Sometimes we have open events that aren't regular things. Keep an eye on this thread. If there are any open events, they'll be here.

There's one tonight in Long Beach. Technically, it's an event for SGLBC, but there's a lot of crossover, so if you meet people there you can get vouched into SGLA.

I'll be moving to Torrance in May, will be on the lookout for some events. I know one person in LA, so it will be nice to meet some folks.

As much as I'd like to join SGLA, I don't think I can be a very active member due to how busy I get at work. At least 5 days a week with 12 hour days, and my remaining time off is spent with my fiancee. So maybe I can offer this:

Does anyone need to rent a car?

I work at Hertz rent-a-car, located at 361 N La Brea (between Beverly and Melrose) in Los Angeles. I've only been working there for about 3 months, but I'm familiar enough with how things work to where I can personally offer great deals to people who want to rent a car for the hell of it. Cars, vans, trucks, SUVs, convertibles, luxury cars, Escalades, whatever.

If anyone at all is interested in renting a car, send me a message. It can be for next week, middle of summer, or end of the year. Rent it for 2 days or 2 months. You can return it back to La Brea, or take it on a one way trip to wherever you wanna go. I'll give you some numbers to work with so you can get an idea of what it would cost, and then after that it's up to you if you want to make a reservation or not.

I'll have more detailed info on my profile!
