I would obviously prefer Saturday over Sunday, but I can make both work.

Okay, unless someone chimes in and says otherwise, Saturday it is.

If I make it that far.

I was feeling optimistic yesterday. By the end of today, not so much...

If you don't make it, can I have your spear?

I thought priests were supposed to remain celibate.

I think I've heard from everyone. We are "Go" for Operation 24.

I suppose that means more work for me. Sigh.

Are you done yet?

No. I stared at an empty Word document, though. Eventually I wrote "There is a door. Behind the door is something amazingly awesome. Everyone will find it fascinating, and Abernathy will howl at the moon. It's so awesome that it cannot be put into words. Fuck."

Is it Roxie?

No. It's a cheese grater. Now everyone will be sad you ruined the surprise.

But I'm alergic?

He doesn't shed much...


But you're not allergic, you're intolerant. I have a zero tolerance policy against intolerance.


What time next Saturday? 3ish?

Deal.

3pm works juuuuuuuuust fine.

Mikey, you picking up the bourbon? A handle of Bulleit is always a good bang-for-your-buck choice, but Jay and I aren't too picky.

Our little rogue failed his spot check and picked the wrong thread.

August 21? Otherwise it will be some time in September.

The 21st works just fine for this kid.

We've already established that Marchosias has a terrible spot check.

I am going to HPR, and Mark really should too.

I do have to call it a day early to get back to the dogs, but I don't think it will work for me...

Ok, we'll figure out September later. We have to paint the house anyway.

I would like to do HPR, but honestly we need to get some stuff done.

September? Curse all of you.

That's what I think of September too. You know what's worse than September?

October. Also November, December, January, February, and March.

December and January are going to be tricky...

I'm just saying...

Recockulous.

Gaming on the 21st. Okay, I have a proposition.

I have to get back to the pups on Saturday the 21st because Michelle will be in Canada any way, so I won't be at the track all day.

So if everyone else can make the 21st, I suggest that we do game, but at my place, and start at 5:00. I'll make sure that I'm back by then, and then you don't have to wait for me, etc, and we also don't have to wait until September.

Thoughts?

I'm down.

+1

We can go a little later, assuming that there is enough caffeine flowing to keep everyone awake.

I'm somewhat indifferent. I guess if the other two can make it then I'll figure out when I can get ready.

The world may never know.

Well, it doesn't matter. There's a reasonable chance I may need to work. There's some launch support stuff going on that weekend. Let's just skip it so we don't need to worry about last minute changes.

Maybe just the two of us can have a special "gaming session" another night.
