The name of the bar with the livingrooms is Loki. And I did not make it in to work.

And that, ladies and gentleman, is what I was worried about. I almost didn’t make it to work on Wednesday because of a late-night return from Park Slope, and I couldn’t afford another complete zombie day today 😉

Glad to hear you guys had fun, and way to go Saxface!

(and thanks, CajunMan for the nacho report! ;))

Barring complete personal meltdown, Maeglin and I will be there next week.

I’ll drag my sorry New-Jersey dwelling bee-hind in this week. 🙂 Where’s it gonna be?

**Sax** got the baby, but she had to go out of town for a few days. She did mention something about a loft in Williamsburg, pizza and beer.

I know I’m planning terribly ahead here, but I can come up Thursday, March 22. It’s Sprink Break and hopefully my fat tax return will have come in, so I can big pimp it around the city.

Can I stay with someone? I promise you won’t have to clean up after me; I’m thinking of heading out early Friday and seeing some more sights. I really want to go to MoMA.

Anybody up for a houseguest? 🙂

Yep, I got the baby. Last Thursday was too much fun. I ended up staying at Loki until 2 am, I think. Ridiculous.

This week’s par-tay will be in Williamsburg at a private residence.

Obviously, I’m not going to make the address public. If you plan to attend, please respond to this thread and I will e-mail you directions.

See you there!

I plan to be there, and I know **Maeglin** and **Pucette** plan to as well. Also, see if you can rouse the missing **Ukulele Ike**.

Now if we could only get **Eve** and **manhattan** to cross the East River, that would be something.

This week was the last of the Mardi Gras Thursdays, right? Interest still seems high. **Billdo** , you great organizer you, think of something!

You know I’ll always try to make it if I can.

Well, gang, Thursday is rolling around again. Last week the meeting didn’t come off because it seemed that no one was able to be there.

This week I’m going to suggest we go back to Flight 151 at 151 Eighth Avenue (and 18th Street) in Manhattan. We can meet there at 6:30 as usual.

See you there.

I will try to be there but tonight is Mrs. Zebra’s last night in a play so tomorrow night is our first night we can go out. she may be tired and want to go home and just crash and in that case I’ll be there.

Hrmph. Nobody responded to this? Of course you’re welcome at my house! It would be a pleasure to have you. (I am going out of town the next day, though.) You have to promise not to tongue-kiss Spot, though.

CajunMan–he probably won’t come to one until grad school lets out in May. He is taking 3 courses in addition to teaching full-time. He doesn’t get home on Wednesdays until 10:30 or 11. He’s pooped on Thursdays!

But he does exist, really!
