How will I recognise you guys? I’ve never seen a-one of you in my life! I’ll be the chunky tall girl with huge, scared eyes, who looks worse in person than she looks in her pictures. I also just cut my own hair, and it probably looks as much. Ag. Nerves. Great. Now I’ll probably be broken out, too. Maybe I’ll even lose some hair before then. But I’m still going. My husband refuses to let me squirm out of this. [sub]Usually in these situations, I go, meet a bunch of good people, have a great time, and can’t wait to go back. But until I get there, it’s like this.[/sub] ---

BWAHA! _No way._ Not wearing that crap when I meet people I could potentially see again or be friends with. I want people to like me for _me_, not my seductive scent! 😉 ---

Well, as it turns out, I will not be available for trivia tomorrow (curses!). But I had not thought to ask my better half whether she would like to go tonight. I will get in touch with her and let everyone/anyone know as soon as possible. ---

I suppose I could do either or both nights for this week. I’d hate to disappoint **stargazer** or **picunurse** , and certainly wouldn’t want to miss the first appearance of **Anastasaeon**. I can make up a table sign that says “SDMB Trivia Team” to allow those that don’t know us to find us. ---

I’m up for tonight (for real! I mean it!), so I hope we’ll have a good-sized group. I’m going on a diet next week, so this will be my last cider for a while (they better not be out of it!), so you know I really will be there – alcohol is serious motivation. 😉 I hope **Anastaseon** will come – I drive by your general neighborhood on occasion, and I always think, “I know someone who lives over here - well, okay, I don’t actually _know_ her, but I know she lives somewhere around here! Maybe that’s her!” etc. (I could give you a ride tonight, if you need it, too.) So, we have **picunurse** , **stargazer** , probably **Saltire** , maybe **Ague and the Lady Cheek** and **anastaseon** , so far. **Interrobang** and **Cervaise** are out tonight (most likely). We have yet to hear from **inkysplotchy** , **E. Thorp** , and **amarinth** , but it’s early still. ---

I thought **Anastaseon** was looking at tomorrow night. we can do both, right? ---

I’m able to do both nights this time, at least. **picunurse** , if we decide to do the Old Pequliar again for Tuesday (I’m taking the OP/G&D decision as ‘not yet nailed down’), you’ll want to come and try out the dartboards. **Interrobang?!** will almost certainly not be able to come tonight, so here’s hoping he’ll want to do tomorrow. Especially since I also thought **Anastasaeon** was speaking of Tuesday, and we want to be as accomodating as possible to any new blood the team might gain. ---

I’m not available tonight. However, I **am** available tomorrow night, as we’ve been given the night off from rehearsal. Y’all were gonna do the Pequliar again, yes? ---

Okay, it turns out that we can’t make it tonight, unfortunately. Nor tomorrow, which means we miss out on **Anastasaeon** ’s coming out, darnit all. Our schedule will be much clearer starting next week, though, so we’ll be back to our usual cheery selves. As for the OP/G&D question, both of our votes go for OP. ---

Sorry, but I’m out again this week. **stargazer** , **picunurse** , and **Anastasaeon** , I look forward to meeting you on some future Tuesday. ---

well, should we scrap it for tonight, in favor of tomorrow night? I’m iffy for tomorrow, but I’d really like to try the OP. ---

> [@stargazer](#): > > well, should we scrap it for tonight, in favor of tomorrow night? I’m iffy for tomorrow, but I’d really like to try the OP. Fine by me. I’m tired after a long, frustratingly boring day. So tomorrow? ---
