Should I bring meats? Cheeses? Sugar-free beverages? An old kazoo and some sparklers?

Everyone is invited to bring stuff that they think others will enjoy. I'll certainly have the basics...

Then I'll leave the kazoo at home.

It's probably for the best.

Yep. Me plus 1 will be able to attend!! Will need direction/ parking info. :) Whooo

Wonderful! We'll do a head count tomorrow (and directions will be PM'd to those that need 'em).

I really want to go, but I think the other half refuses to drive anywhere this weekend.

I can't get you here, but you're welcome to crash in the guest room (as it were) should you find yourself stranded...

Nope i work til 5pm. It's a freaking HOLIDAY and i am not driving anywhere that evening. Roads will be ****ty and i will want to come home and just crash. Plus we have the girls to think about. They do not do well with fireworks. Plus we have an awesome public display outside our window. And the neighbor's throw in their fireworks as well. Staying home is the best thing for the animals and myself. IF it were any other time and i got off work earlier than yes but since it is the 4th we're talking about. Plus crazy drunk asses on the roads that night. I do not want to dwell and do not do well with them on the road having to manuevr my way back and my car is 12 yrs old and needs to be babied. It's in the shop and more money put into it to keep it running.

Aw, bummer. It would have been really very nice to see you two. If you change your mind, you can always subway to our place.
