**LOUNE** recently reminded me it’s been far too long since we’ve gathered. I _hate_ when he’s right. Anyone free, come spend New Year’s Eve with me! Many of you have been here before, anyone else brave enough to come out on amateur night, just PM me for directions. Munchies, beverages, games, the usual geekery, come one come all. ---

WAIT A MINUTE! Every time you have a Dopering, I end up having surgery. I urge you to rethink this. ---

I hope to be in! But with my luck (and complete lack of power as the bottommost cashier) I will probably be closing at Kroger’s that night. ☹ ---

One of these days we’ll get you down here, **Athena**. You have to bring fudge, of course. Possibly pasties, too. ---

If I have to work you all should make a field trip to Kroger’s. 😛 I’ll be the one at U-Scan helping the drunkies ring up their celebratory booze. ---
