Wake Up Oklahoma

I finally made it OKCity for a dr.'s appt. Not good news, but I'll deal with it. Now I've got aapts with a neurologist at the NeuroScience Institute, a neuro-opthomologist, and a glaucoma specialist! The two eye docs are on the same day but some time apart. Perhaps someone in OKCity would like to meet me for coffee inbetween? This would be in the morning, so I understand if no-one can make it. The appt is in early April. Let me know if anyone's interested. If not then, then perhaps some other time someone could show me around OKCity? Or meet me for coffee somewhere?
If anyone lives near Ardmore or Ada and wants to meet somewhere closer, that's good. Or even Norman. I'm fairly amenable, though I don't drive. (I have a room-mate who wants me to meet friends.) Also, can anyone put me in touch with a local sangha?
If anyone wants to talk on the phone, let me know and we can exchange numbers. Due to my eye problems, being on the computer is hard for me sometimes.
Namaste, y'all!

My work schedule is never the same Damsel,
so if I'm not working the morning you're in OKC,
I don't mind meeting you and hanging out over coffee.

Hey Wolfy, if I'm not at one of my VA appointments, I'd love to meet you guys for coffee

I have a friend who is Buddhist and I wrote and asked her if she could help. She sent me a response and I'll share it with you here.

She said and I quote her word for word...Not sure what kind of Buddhist she is. If she's my kind, SGI, there's a center in OK city. 3800 N Cromwell Avenue , Oklahoma City, OK 73112-6328 (405) 947-1101. If she's a different kind then the best bet is the internet. Thanks for asking!

thanks for the info, Wolfy! i've gotten into contact w/2 sanghas in OKC. i'm not a SCI Buddhist but might get in touch w/them anyway. never hurts to check out all possibilities!

ok, everyone! i'm going to be in OKC on Wed , April 6th for 2 dr's appts, both at OU hospital. the first is at 8PM, the second is at 11:30AM. we could try to meet for coffee inbetween or meet for lunch after the second, whichever would be better for your schedules. i doubt that i'll be seeing well after either. since i don't know how long either will last, i'm thinking that maybe lunch at 1PM somewhere might be good, though i'll probably just nibble. i usually don't feel that great after eye exams and haven't been feeling well in general. but get together, let me know what you decide , and we'll take it from there. i really hope that someone or, i hope, more can meet me then. i really want to make some local friends, femme and butch. if not then, then let's decide on a different time. my only time constraint is my housemate's work schedule, as she's my wheels. but she's really nice about trying to get me to meet you, and i think you'll like her, too. she doesn't get the B/f dance-i'm the first femme she's ever met.
hope we can do this!
namaste,
DamselFly
