    Should I bring board games this time? Maybe we should move it on inside...tiny little cards + wind = no board game for next week...

    Yeah, bring it. I'll only be around till about 9:30. I got a flight outta town at 6 something in the morning, but I'll be down for some board gaming action and speed drinking.

    I figured you were just in a hurry to put your Jesus pants on. Like we don't all know you put them on Sunday night and just wait for Wednesday to roll around ...

    EmilyM I think you know what will happen if you don't bring the board games. You will be stoned to death, with stale cupcakes. :P Anyone who wants to play can move inside.

    Anyone up for any of the following?

    Backgamman
    Connect Four
    Othello
    "The Simpsons" Clue
    "Brooklyn" Monopoly
    Scrabble

    I also have some old school handheld electronic games (the kind with the LEDs):

    Mattel Football 2
    Mattel Soccer
    Coleco Head-to-Head Hockey

    Let me know. I'll bring any that people are interested in. If anyone's interested in the electronic ones, try to let me know sooner so I can pick up some 9-volt batteries.

    scrabble! scrabble! I'll actually manage to drag my lazy self over there for scrabble (assuming said lazy ass has been released from work).

    Are you really ready for that kind of time committment? I'll bring it, but be forewarned- you're in for several hours at least!

    I'll bring scrabble if at least one more person expresses interest. Ordinarily I'd play, but I think I will be tied up with Brooklyn Monopoly! :)

    Scrabble is always fun- I'd play (assuming my ass has been released from work, too).

    I'll show up sometime around 8:45. not sure what I'll be up for -- I can take over someone's monopoly position if they get bored or give really lousy scrabble advice. the only game I win at is poker.

    Simpsons Clue sounds right up my alley. But if there's not enough for a game, I'd love to play Monopoly or TP. I'll be there around 7:30pm. No encumbering baked goods this time.

    Beat Street perhaps? I've got that soundtrack too. Or maybe Rappin'? Though I dunno where that was set.

    I have pre-vacation work emergencies and won't be making it tonight. Sorry.

    I unexpectedly went out with friends last night and find myself erring on the side of staying in tonight. But now it seems like more people CAN'T come than CAN. Should we try to figure out who's planning on being there when? The last thing we need is for some newbie to show up and none of us is there...
  • alafairnadia

    I'll still be there (even though I was out last night). I brought knitting with me, so look for me in the back room around 8:45ish. I'll be knitting a grey scarf and waiting for you fuckers to show up. :wink:

    I was really going to come, but it's just one of those Murphy's Law things. Leaving for vacation tomorrow morning and of course everything in the office has to fall apart and go into crisis mode. If I have time between getting out of the office and packing, I'll swing in for a quick couple beers, but i can't commit unfortunately.
