I thought babies were all sunshine and rainbows? What are you going to tell me next, that marriage isn’t bubblegum and candlelight? I’ll be there, maybe early, 'cause my foot may or may not put up with fencing. ---

[QUOTE=stargazer] Yeah, but your panda is _invisible_, so that won’t help them much, will it? [/QUOTE] Invisible it may be, but it _does_ smell like ass. I should also be there on the early side, and will participate in the reservation of tableness. Heck, I bring a couple of extra coats, we can hold down seven or eight tables! ---

In case **stargazer** can’t make it, everyone should skim through as many [_Project Runway_ articles](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Project_Runway) on Wikipedia as possible. ---

[QUOTE=Interrobang!?] I’ll be there. And if you’re going back to Tukwila, **mnemosyne** , I can give you a ride after the quiz – I live in south Seattle (the Rainier Beach neighborhood, if that means anything to you). That’ll be faster than buses at 10:15. [/QUOTE] **Interrobang!?** , I’d really appreciate that! Turns out my husband can come with me (as he doesn’t have a full 12 hours worth of stuff to do, he’ll go in later), but we will be taking transit into town shortly, and we will make our way there. His coworker needs the car. I assume 7ish is good? I’ll have a grey coat and a multi-coloured scarf, and he’ll have a light brown coat with a mostly orange scarf. We are both in our mid-twenties, and wear glasses. Here’s hoping we can find you! ---

Time for the last Tuesday trivia of 2007, I believe. I’ve got a work holiday get-together that’s supposed to go from 4 to 6, but I bet it’ll break up before then. However, I’m probably not going to be the first to show up at the Old P. I’ll get there eventually. ---

I’m planning to be there, probably just before it starts, as usual. ---

I’ll be there, arriving sometime between 7 and 7:30. Perhaps this is a good week to ask for a return favor on table saving. ---

Actually, I’m skipping fencing this week to rest mind and body. I’ll grab my laptop and get there early to tabel sit. How early should I get there? 6? 6:30? ---

I’m planning to be there in the neighborhood of 6:00, so no worries on the table. ETA: Also, I was led to understand that there would be pastries. I will be exceptionally displeased if said pastries fail to materialize. I am in a pastry state of mind. ---

Well then, I’ll just stay home and play Rock Band and listen to my neighbors gnash their teeth above me. ---

There’s a Cupcake Royale down the street. Hard to beat that, anyway! If that doesn’t inspire her to bring cupcakes, she’ll bring pain. ---

Bump: What was our plan for holiday-week trivia? Thursday, right? Not tonight? Just making sure I’m not supposed to be someplace… ---

Was there talk of Thursday trivia? I don’t recall, but I guess it’s worth a bump, just in case. If folks want a week off, that’s fine as well. But I’d make myself available if some or all of the gang wants to try out a new night at a new venue. ---

I can’t come tonight. My impression was that we were not planning on a quiz at all this week or next, but I’m definitely open to something next week. ---
