me threeand this invalidates my point right? 
Yes, it does.
For one, I'm not some chick from afar who is talking smack. I had every intention of coming because I have two sisters there, three nieces and four nephews there, FRIENDS there and a very
special friend there. As I said from the beginning, my participation would depend on what day, what time, and what location was selected. In fact, when I stated that I didn't think I would make it, I made no effort to give input on the location, time, place or anything; I simply said, I think I'm going to sit this one out. If I wanted the plans to be changed, I would've said, "I would come, but I'm not interested in going to D&B or shedding, so can we xyz instead...." But I didn't. I simply said, "I'm going to sit this one out."
FURTHERMORE, in your haste to be the usual smart aleck, you FAILED to see the white print, which indicated that I was kidding about Virginia Beach. So YES. It does indeed INVALIDATE your point.
Take two steps back, dude. Or step in someone else's direction.
