Dominic may/may not be coming. Depends on how many others will be there and if I think there will be room for him. I know he really wants to see Matthew though.
With two tables there should be room for him.
Well it should be, but if various people’s spouses are there, if Brian brings his friend, etc etc it could fill up. (Which is fine–he doesn’t need to come, I’m only bringing him if there is room)
Oh Brian’s friend is not coming, so one less person to worry about.
No, Airman will not be able to join us, and sends his regrets.
Robin
I take dibs on sitting next to you.
Welcome to the boards Huggybear! You look familiar.
Great name!
Hmmmm, who could this mysterious Huggybear be?!? 
Well whoever you are, I will have you on one side and the birthday girl on the other, hopefully!
If Huggybear is who I think it is… TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH.
Ginger, I think you hit the nail squarely on the head! 
Gaaaahhh! I feel so out of the loop! Who is this mysterious Huggybear??
I’m sure we’ll all find out who Huggybear is soon enough.
Megakudoi to OpalCat for taking the time to sort out the reservations and seating and whatnot with the obviously incompetent staff at the Melting Pot. Obviously overexposure to fondue fumes is hazardous to one’s health.
I’m still in, by the way.
Well let me give you a hint. Most of you all have met him before…
…some of us have seen him put whipped cream on his naked chest…
This is true, much to his dismay!
I’ll second this! Seems like it’s been a major PITA!
As for Huggybear, some of you obviously know who he is, and I don’t. It’s not fair, it’s not fair, it’s not fair! Where’s the foot-stomping, pouting smilie when you need it?
Norine, you’ve met him on more than one occasion.
Oh, him! I remember that game.
Happy Birthday to all the celebrants!
Wish I could scoot up there to have things covered in warm chocolate, but I’ll have to take a rain check.
<Homer voice on> Warm, runny chocolate smeared over…stuff…and things…ahhhggggg <Homer voice off>
No fair! You gotta come to an MAD gathering sometime.
