I know, but due to the manner in which she said "August", I was unclear as to her intentions.

I think that would be good for me. We'll do our best to make it. Can we bring anything?

Yes, it is next friday, in the month of August, and not this friday, which is the month of july and on which day I have to work, which means I'll be grumpy. I'm just too lazy to go look at the calendar for the actual date.

I'm not sure what I'm making that night - might be something pesto, since we have a sh!t-ton of basil outside - but finger foods are usually good.

Okay - the good news is that game night is still on for THIS FRIDAY. The bad news is that work canceled my day off so that I could re-take a training I already took and which is the very basic overview introduction to the work I do EVERY SINGLE DAY because they can't seem to grasp that "we need more training beyond the introductory level" does not mean "we need more training at the introductory level". But I digress.

Anyhow, the point of this is that I need time to slog home and start cooking, so start time is 7ish. (And that means that yes, you are free to come as early as 7 -- 7 doesn't secretly mean 9.) You can come earlier, but you'll have to watch me cook.

Culinary theme this month is summer salads. I'm planning to make three - 1 meat and 2 non. Feel free to bring anything else to snack upon -- veggies, fruit, and chip-like items would be my suggestions.

And now, I must ick-thump.

We will be there one of these game nights... this weekend is contractor hell for us. Have fun with your re-training!

We're out for this one, but we'll be there in the future.

Still on. Bringing... something. Dunno what...

Didn't get home from lunch/shopping/movies until almost 8PM when Hubby reminded me about Game night.....damn, sorry I missed out, hopefully next time.

Had fun, Pru, thanks!

I'll be eating moroccan couscous salad for the next 30 years.
