You can put me and **Boyfriend** on the “probably” list. He doesn’t have any shows scheduled for that weekend, and I’ll be in Baltimore all weekend. Yay! ---

Let me kick **Verrain’s** butt into gear and see if I can tell you one way or the other what we’re doing. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by OpalCat \* > RTFirefly and possibly woman Well, that settles it. If Mrs. F. ever signs up for this board, her username will have to be **possibly woman**. She’ll _love_ that! 😉 Cool - I’ll get to meet **Skerri** , and without even having to travel to Charleston! **FCM** : your hubby’s right, of course - we Dopers **are** weird! (That’s my wife’s opinion too, btw.) But who’s in a big hurry to be normal? And sorry, but I’m still snickering. 🙂 And my wife, who _is_ a flower of southern womanhood, won’t stop bitching about the cold weather. I keep on responding, “Yeah, it’s winter! So what?” but she keeps griping. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by OpalCat \* > \*\ ***Probably:** > MsRobyn and small pink thing > \*\* No, no, no. Let’s try this again: **Probably: MsRobyn and HUGE pink thing** :eek: 🆒 🙂 Aaron weighed in at 17 lbs 14 oz and will most likely be at 19 or thereabouts that weekend. Also, I talked to **Zappo** the other night, and he is aware of this and is a possible. Robin ---

oooooooo - time for a full-court press on **Zap**!! Also gotta get **Miss Moose** back from her travels. **RTF** - you’re snickering so hard, you missed an opportunity to make a “flower of southern womanhood”/blooming idiot connection. I’m disappointed in you, man! ---

Hey, I’m just too much of a gentleman. 😃 **Opal** , you’ll have to downgrade me to a “maybe”. I just got the invite for my little sister’s annual chili party. It’s on Feb. 15 as well, at 6pm. If it were up to me, I’d go to both, and probably be fashionably late for the chili party. I’m not sure my wife’s good for that much mileage on one day, though. (And no, I can’t come to the birthday gig by myself and then meet up with my wife at the chili party; it’s logistically impossible.) ---

Fairy Chat Dad is working in HDG? Cool! Where? Have I harassed him? ---
