Hi everyone!
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! I've only been back to work for a few days-still trying to dig myself out of the backup work! ;) I'm sorry I missed the holiday party and the trip to WhoNA. Hope you guys had a great time! :) Believe it or not, I'm still planning on posting some of the pics I took from Chicago Tardis-I know it's been awhile, but I didn't have the time to post them before I went on my Christmas vacation.
On to business!! Our January steering meeting is tonight, from 7-9pm at the Rusty Bucket on Lane Avenue. Join us for good food and great conversation. We will be talking about our latest news and events, deciding our future and just hanging out! Contact Andrew if you have any questions. Everyone is invited-hope to see you there!
Also, don't forget our monthly meeting is Saturday, January 17th. I'll be posting more details later. :)

December Steering Meeting, plus a couple of notes
Hey everyone!
Don't forget-our monthly steering meeting is tonight! 7-9pm at Tommy's on Lane Avenue.
If you like listening to Doctor Who on the radio, BBC Radio 7 is replaying some of Paul McGann's earlier shows with India Fisher as his companion Charley. (Thanks, Mreen, for the link!) I'm not sure why the site lists Sylvester McCoy and Bonnie Langford as actors, but I think that is in error.
I made it back from Chicago Tardis! I had an awesome time! I've got pictures-hopefully I'll have them posted here before I head up to MN in a couple of weeks. I will post some here, and more in my flickr account (I'll post the link when I've uploaded them.)

club updates! television! radio!
Well, I must have been half aleep when I wrote my last post (which is odd, because it was during my lunch break, and I didn't receive any snoring complaints from my cowokers... ;) ). I mentioned that the All Saints Day Halloween party was this Saturday, when in fact, it is not. The party is next Saturday, November 1st. Sorry about that!
I knew I forgot something in my last post-if you haven't had a chance to check out the Yahoo list lately, John posted a new poll for those planning on going to Chicago Tardis next month. Need someone to share a room with? Check out the poll!
Don't forget! The Sarah Jane Adventures are all new on BBC One!

Club updates
Well, the trick to posting on a regular basis after your internet is set up at your new place is to actually be AWAKE when you want to post! Ha! I think the adrenaline that kept me going over the past month is starting to wear off. ;)
Enough of my lame excuses-now lets get on to some club business!!
First of all-welcome to all of our newest members! Whether you are coming back to us after being away for awhile, or are delurking-you are all welcome here! :)
Next-Just a little reminder-Marcia has been asked by the "game show gurus" at Marcon if we would like to run another Doctor Who themed game show at 44. If there is any interest, please respond to her post on the Yahoo list. They would like to know by the end of the month if there is any interest, and Marcia told them she'd let them know no later than our next meeting. If you're interested, speak up!!
Finally, last, but not least! We will be having an All Saints Day Halloween Party this Saturday at Andrew's!!! Bring your leftover Halloween candies! Kids welcome - costumes encouraged! Enjoy some spooky fun with the Doctor Who crowd, as we eek one more party out of a holiday! *hee*
Festivities start at 2pm-join us for candy, fun, new episodes of the Sarah Jane Adventures and spooky-themed Doctor Who episodes! Hope to see you there!
