Looks like tonight is kaput. I don’t know yet if I’m available tomorrow. ---

Well, I can play tonight, and I have another weeks worth of hair growth to fortify keep my head warm. Who’s with me? ---

I’m probably in. I may even try to get there a bit earlier so I can indulge in my quarterly order of shepherd’s pie. “Earlier” being “maybe by 7:30.” ---

I don’t know if we’re in tonight or not. I’ve been stuck in a company-wide meeting all day yesterday and today and I’m uncertain when I’ll get out of here. Tell you what…if we show, we’re in. If not, we’re not. ---

I work for the same company as **Aguecheek** and it looks as though I’ll be spending the evening with some of my cow-orkers. ---

I’ll be there, probably around 7:30-7:45ish. ---

Tonight’s a payroll night for me. If I can get out of here by 7:00-7:30 I’ll show up. Any later and I’ll need to go straight home and fall down. ---

I’m gonna try, but I’m nursing the 3rd headache in as many days, which also means that no housework has been done (this is where that Litter Robot comes in especially handy!). I’ll have to see how it goes. Let’s just pray that the Tylenol kicks in quickly and stays. ---

I’m good to go and promise not to argue over any smoking initiatives. I may turn very red from the effort, but, um, it’s genetic and stuff so I can’t help it. ---

Yeah, I’ll show, especially if I can get a ride to and from. Anyone want to volunteer? (My wife gets the car for PEPS, which I’m skipping in the interests of a trivia night that doesn’t end with the words “and the winner with 458,000 points is Spear Britney.”) ---

Can’t offer a ride To, but I can provide From. ---

Anyone planning to go to the George & Dragon tonight? I’m a definite maybe if we’ve got a crowd. ---

Sorry to say, but the hectic is still upon me. I’ll see you next week, hopefully. ---

I’m out for the next couple of weeks. But, for those who were there last night: [koalas do not sleep 22 hours a day!](http://www.savethekoala.com/koalasfacts.html) (see point #3) ---

However, when I think they sleep at odd times, so when the surveyors went to ask them how much they slept, they were always sleeping. In frustration, the surveyor said screw it, and put them down for 22 hours. True story. ---

So, is anyone doing George & Dragon trivia tonight? I’m free, but I’ve decided to assume everyone is tied up preparing for holiday travel or visits from relatives. That way, I can be pleasantly surprised if trivia does happen. ---

I’m up for tonight if people want to do it. It’ll be one of the last smokey evenings at the G&D…ah, nostalgia.
