Indeed. Not a bad way to spend a birthday, especially since this particular decade-one is bothering me. I'm not sure why, I had no real problems with 40 or 50... So far the schedule is: - Connie Willis reading/signing - Out for coffee afterwards with friend - Stop at another friend's up on Queen Anne to loan books & deliver lamb steaks - check time, see if I can fit a Trader Joe's stop in (store is less than a block from friend's apartment) - Stop at Bell St. to see yet another friend - Be at Night Kitchen at 6 pm It isn't going to work, is it? But since I only get over to the Seattle side once or twice a month, I'm not sure what I can skip. (Yeah. And with the CFS/fibro/et al., I'm going to be absolutely flat for days, aren't I?)

Here's wishing you a whole case of spoons for your birthday.

Chaz: Can't.
Daphne: Stand up on it, damn you.

Thank you! (I'm going to need them... all that stuff going on physically, and then the emotional rollercoasters we'll all be riding while reading "The Unicorn Evils"...)

Ok, though it may kill me, I am still hoping to pop into TNK, with nraven760, on Sunday the 7th. I am currently down-and-out with the crud, and have a superbowl party to attend that day, but if the gods smile upon me I will be there, downing lattes and reading like a madwoman.  And noshing. Mmmmmcheese curds....

Last-minute schedule changes just moved my Prior Social Commitment to the morning instead, so I'm hoping to drop by.
Is there some sort of time and/or secret recognition code involved? (Still haven't worked out the "dinner: yes or no" question.)

"I hate you! Where's my chicken pot pie" might work... (but only say that to the Mad Gastronomer; the rest of the staff might find it rather confusing. *grin*)

Head for the Lounge -- through the curtained doorway in the hall. If confused, ask staff for the Lounge.

Death has me in his grips, and being a plague rat I thought I'd pass on tonight and not spread germs around your fine establishment. It makes me pout, though. I hope next weekend, sans romantic attachment, I can swing by TNK to stuff my face. Have fun, Deltas!

Since I'm still working in the lab*, I'll be there either significantly later or not at all. C'est la vie. * summary of events resulting in this: aaaaaaagh *flail*

Trust me, I was acutely aware of that while eating my canned pasta and sauce tonight.  Was there a special dish on the menu for tonight? Fried unicorn, perhaps?

You don't fry a Unicorn, for heaven's sake! You roast it, having with appropriate dry rub.  Glinda and I want you all to know that those of you didn't turn up tonight missed some tasty food.  Oh, sure, tease me some more about how wonderful the food is...

Snacking, folks, snacking. I don't know where you got any other ideas, and frankly I'm not sure I want to know =)
