Oh, I'd love to, but I'll be en route to Chicago, with all my worldly possessions in tow.

If I ever get them all packed.

Absolutely. Whether or not my conference paper is done will dictate whether or not I get to drink a celebratory glass of wine, but I can drink sugar free koolaid if it's not.

Friday is my birthday! I'll try to pop in for a little bit after my cupcakes-at-the-beach party.

Good luck with the packing and move, mamawho!

My parents will be here...which means I'll be tanked but since they sleep in the computer room I don't think I can party in here with my dad's snoring.

have fun though...

with bells on

Mamawho - find some free wifi and say hi from the road!

Good luck Mamawho.

I'm lucky if I'll realize what day it is on Friday. I will make best attempts to be there...providing sleeping newborns and all.

I'll be there. SOMEBODY has to make sure JM makes it up to bed safely, and I'd rather it be me.

Mamawho, have a safe trip. Good luck with the move.

I've been waiting for one of these. We will be on the road to CO to visit friends and family with CrazyLime. I will be here in spirit.

I am there, absolutely. What is my mob name again?

A Friday? Don't people usually go out on Fridays? That being said, I plan on being there.

Tentative. I'm going to the Bahamas for 2 days BY MY DAMN SELF next week. So if I'm not have guilt sex with The Surfer I'll be here...what? TMI?

For those of you who are new to the playground, our cocktail parties are remarkably like real ones - only you don't have to get dressed up. The conversations tend to run over the top of each other and you can talk about anything EXCEPT the kids. If you get here by 10 you'll probably find 5 different conversations going on - don't try to figure it out, just jump in.

(I'll explain the whole OS mafia thing later this week - but I need to go bake a birthday cake for SBT#2 - ciao!)
