The wonderful city of Denver, Colorado is exactly 5280 feet above sea level. (And you thought we were talking about something else<\/a>? Chhi!) We’re holding our first meetup in the Mile High City this coming Thursday the 23rd. Sepia’s web wizard Kunjan<\/a> will be in Denver this week, and though it’s a school night, I promised him I’d drive an hour north on I-25 to see him.<\/p>\n\n

Date: THURSDAY, September 23rd, 2010<\/p>\n \n

Time: 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm<\/p>\n \n

Place: Indi\u00c3\u00a4’s Restaurant<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

We’ll be meeting at Indi\u00c3\u00a4’s Restaurant because it satisfies some minimum requirements: decent food, easy access from I-25, plenty of parking, and a respectfully stocked bar<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

I was half hoping that one person would join us and then go next door for a 2.5-hour Hindi\/Telegu\/Tamil cinematic extravaganza<\/a>— so we could crown that person the brownest person in the room, but it doesn’t look as if anything is playing that night. We’ll still take nominations though. I’m rooting for the person who figures out why our restaurant has an umlaut<\/a>, which means that it should be pronounced “Indi-yehs.” (But maybe it’s more like H\u00c3\u00a4agen Dasz<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n

When I first moved to Colorado, I thought it was the whitest place I had ever been. Then I got stuck in the airport at Salt Lake City. Now that I have lived here a while, I know there are many of you around<\/a>. I’ve met a fair number of South Asian American 2nd-gens like me in Colorado, but I’ve also met people from every single South Asian country (including the Maldives) except Bhutan– though I know you’re around <\/a> too.<\/p>\n\n

Come on out, and say hi! If you can join us, let us know by leaving a comment, and I can book a table for all of us before we arrive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
