I didn't budget in the time for the trip back from a baby shower tonight when I set the time for the cocktail party - can someone get it started for me at 9EST? I'll stay up late to make it up to you!

WTF? How can we have a party without you? I haven't seen my wife since Monday morning, but I still think she'll be in bed by nine, so I'll give it a try, but I can't promise anything. I'm so lame. Heck, I might even be crazy and start it at 8:58.

I'm not a member of the OS Mafia, but I too can help get the party started.

Super Papa, after a few drinks, you can tell us something embarrassing about yourself and then get a name. Welcome to the family.
And can someone remember to bring a list of the names. I'm sure it will come up.

Thanks Diggy. I'll try to think of a good story!

Who the hell has a baby shower on a Thursday night?

The Director calls shenanigans!

I wish I could. I'll still be at work when it starts.

Later, I'm hoping that dinner with the MIL is quick and I can escape to join the party.

Hooters will not be in Oklahoma as previously stated, so I may be available!

I'm just stoked I finally got my mafia name. I felt all left out. :(

Nails is visiting family, so Nails may not be in attendance.

Doc will be there, pretty close to 9 but probably not exactly on time. We'll be awkwardly mingling until you get here JM!

I'll be here 9 EST with bells on.

Who do you need whacked?

Ok, so I have a half a glass of wine left and it's almost 7 o'clock. I think by 8 I'll be plum out of drink.

So, are we ready?
