Once again, I shall be traveling to Houston, Texas in January for my annual visit to family/warming up from the NY winter. And, once again, I’d like to gather with the local dopers. I’ll be in Houston from January 14 to January 29 (although those two are my travel days and wouldn’t work for meeting purposes). Anyone interested in getting together? I’m open to suggestions for times, dates, and locations. ---

I could do it, Sunday the 22nd, **Little Nemo**. Anyone else? ---

I go back to school on the 17th, so Sunday the 22 should be good. Hopefully my classes won’t start loading me down with homework quite THAT soon. I hope I’l be able to go to this one, and won’t have to cancel the day before like last time. ---

I’ll make it if we are not rehearsing or shooting scenes in the movie that day. I need to double-check the schedule. Are we going to meet at the usual watering hole: Joe’s Crab Shack on Richmond? ---

I will also give it a shot, and hope I don’t have to cancel right before it happens. ---

Joe’s Crab Shack on Richmond is fine by me. I’m always up for seafood and I’ve been there before so I know the location. ---

How about a time? For me, it’s a case of the later in the day, the better. Say around 5:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m., somewhere in there, on Sunday the 22nd? ---
