So I’m counting 6 for sure, plus a ‘highly probable’ and a ‘if the computer gods smile.’

We’re gonna need two team names.

I’m partial to “Caribou Barbie’s Mansion in Heaven Playset”. But I’m easy.

Are we doing the trivia thing tonight? I’m planning on it. Who’s with me?

I’m probably out tonight, but hope to be back (with a vengeance!) next week.

I’m planning on being there _this week_ with a vengeance.

</div>

I’ll probably be there, not with a vengeance, but more with a mild, quietly carried grudge, about which I will do nothing but grouse in the comments section of other people’s blogs.

</div>

I will probably be there tonight, but I had to be up extra-early this morning so the chance of me falling asleep on the couch and therefore missing trivia is somewhat higher than normal.

But I’ll probably be there.

</div>

We are currently a maybe, partly because I have to consult with the boyfriend and partly because midterms start on Friday and I really should be studying.

If we do come, I will bring the Llama of Lluck.

I’m there - around 7:45.

We’re (two of us) in if I can get my Hebrew assignment and midterm study guide finished by 7:30 or so, and I think it’s looking good.

It’s noon, and no one’s posted to the trivia thread. I guess I’ll be there all alone. _sigh_

I’m out tonight because of the Earshot Jazz Festival, and next week because of some sort of electoral contest. Until next time…

</div>

I’m out tonight - I have a candle party to go to. I might stop by afterward, though, depending on when the PartyLite rep is done selling. 😉

Lacking candles or jazz, I’ll be there. Obviously, there are holes in my list of interests.

Since you’re lacking candles, you should come to the candle party… 😃

Nope. Midterms tomorrow and Friday. Plus, I appear to have caught some sort of virus that just won’t die.

After the candle party, is there going to be a masculinity party so I can replace the testosterone I’ll have just lost at the candle party?

I’ll be there, and I’ve invited my new girlfriend.

Is next week completely cancelled due to the charade of fake democracy everybody’s all juiced up about? Or will there be trivia in the bar and empty but distracting pageantry on the teevee?

Due to my semi-rational fear of accidentally burning my building down, I never light the candles I do have and have mostly switched to scent reeds and potpourri.

I’ll be there.
