So...is everyone good with January 10th for the next all day, Clearwater Game Day?
After complete silence for what was long enough for her to forget that I'd even asked a question about next week, I reminded my wife that I had just asked her about going out on Thursday night. More silence followed, then my wife finally, hesitantly said, "Ok. I guess."
I then mentioned the potential event for January, but that was followed by more silence. Then she said, "Why do you guys have to plan stuff so far ahead?" I told her that people like to make plans, and some people even need to make plans. Despite the explanation, I only got more silence and then she changed the subject. I haven't gotten any answer about January yet. My best guess is that January 10th will be the best day to attempt something.

I envision the day that Nathaniel comes home and everything in the house is in boxes. That Beth just decided to move that morning, and the moving truck is pulling into the driveway.
If us having a plan is her problem, then it doesn't sound like a problem. Just tell her Saturday morning that you're leaving for a while. When she asks where you're going, just tell her that you haven't planned that far ahead. See how she feels about planning things after that. ;)
And yes, the 10th sounds great.
-
Oh mY gOd.
Too funny.
I'm sure I can make it that Sunday.
Although, I'll probably bring along my D&D stuff like last time. We're really hit or miss on playing each week.
-
Ahh yeah, funny! Her mom used to do that. Seriously.
-
Wendy has approved us gaming on the 10th. It's a date!
-
OK. Sounds good to me.
-
Count me in.
-
Alli has confirmed as well!!
-
I should be there on time or early. I will be taking my cousin to the Tampa airport. Her plane leaves at 8am, so I should be out of there before that. I'll probably grab some breakfast close to Wyldwing's place.
Sorry Dragon, we won't be able to car pool this time. I'll probably be leaving around 5:30am to get her there two hours prior to her flight.
-
Ok. Thanks for the heads up.
Anyone heard from The Unnamable lately?
-
i plan on going you want to carpool dragon
-
This will be the closest I've ever planned two subsequent games days so close together. I reminded Wendy of it yesterday and she had forgotten...luckily, she didn't have to change any of her plans to accomodate this. ;D
So...we'll have me, Dragon, Chris, Chris, Mac, Alli all day. That's 6 all day. We'll likely have Kamryn for much of the day and Wendy for a couple hours midday. So we will likely get Wits and Wagers in, so, Dragon, please bring that. Chris, would you be so kind as to bring Power Grid?
I see a time period where we'll be breaking off into two groups as 8 is quite large. 4 and 4 would be awesome. Wendy will want to play Ticket to Ride, Dominion, Pandemic?, liar's dice or Settlers. So maybe, for part of the day, we let Kamryn and Wendy teach Alli a few of those...?
Should be a GREAT TIME!!! Bring money to chip in for pizza. Mac..you have me covered...right? :) And I'm looking forward to seeing you all!!
-
I'll have pizza money, Pandemic and myself, that's about it.
-
i plan on going you want to carpool dragon
Yeah, that's fine with me. Do you want to ride in my car, or would you prefer to drive?
-
ill drive this time as you drove last time
-
I've had a change of plans.
My cousins flight got cancelled due to 12 inches of snow at the airport. >:(
I can drive Unamable and Dragon. As long as Dragon doesn't mind sitting in the back seat. There shouldn't be a shortage of space, just easier for Unamable to get in and out.
-
Ouch. So, is your cousin still going to be around that weekend? If you've got room for me and my games, I don't mind riding in the back seat.
-
that's probably for the best i remembered this morning at 630 when i was heading out for work that i have no heater in my car so if it stays as cold as this it would have been a Farly cold ride

Hey guys, Beth noticed on Wyldwing's Facebook account that he and his whole family are sick. We'll pray that he and his family make a speedy recovery before game day so that I can go. Although he has no problem continuing to host the Game Day, under the circumstances, I'm going to have to bail unless Wyldwing can confirm that the sickness has cleared up. I just spent half the week out of commission due to a headache, sore throat, and constant tiredness that kept me sleeping for about 15 hours each night. With the first day of classes being Monday, I can't afford to have a relapse.
:(
-
I'm good to go. I'll call Dragon in the morning, around 8am. If he's going, I'd like to pick him up around 8:15am.
Then I'll head on over to Unamable's place around 8:30am, five minutes from Dragon.
We should make it to Wyldwing's place by 9am.
If we have to stop anywhere, for drinks or snacks, we'll be there later.

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. I got home from the movies late and wanted to crawl right into bed and didn't realize there was something I needed to respond to.
Yup...I'm still sick. I have the sniffles and my nose is running, thus I am blowing. Maybe one of you could pick up some hand sanitizer on your way here (I'll pay you back) and what I could do is use that constantly throughout the day. Wish I'd thought of that yesterday!
I am taking Sudafed which makes it all better for about 5 hours...then I take another pill.
Nathaniel, as with everyone else that is coming, I am hoping you can make it. Should you decide it's too risky, I'll understand. One option would be to not make out with me while you're here. I know it would be difficult, but it would go pretty far in keeping you healthly.
Anyway...I will be good to go at 9am. Whomever is here...WILL BE ENTERTAINED!
-
I'll pick up sanitizer on my way in.
I don't think Dragon will be coming since you're still sick.
Unamable and myself should be there right around 9am.
Although I'll have to stop and get some money, as well as the sanitizer, on the way.

I am definitely glad that I went, and very glad that Wyldwing was no where near as sickly as I had imagined from his Facebook post.
Let's see if I can remember which games we played this time. Please remind me if I've missed any.
- Liars Dice, using my Milton Bradley board with Wyldwing's Perudo dice and cups set (including Wendy)
- Scotland Yard (Wyldwing as Mr. X)
- Wits & Wagers (including Wendy and Kami)
- Galaxy Trucker (Dragon, The Unnamable, Wyldwing, and TylerChuit)
- Sharp Shooters (Mac, Wendy, and Kami)
- Cash 'N' Guns (including Kami)
- Dominion (multiple games)
I know we were planning to play Cosmic Encounter again since it was so well received last time and The Unnamable hadn't played the new version yet, but we never got around to it. We were also supposed to have another guest named Allie (sp?) but she never arrived either.
-
Yup...and she didn't respond to my e-mail either...WIERD!
I'll see if she contacts me back..if not, I'll just chalk it up to...well...not sure...but I'm not for chasing poeple that don't want to spend time with me... you know?
I know that Ticket to Ride was played by Kamryn, Wendy and Mac. Apparently Kamryn SLAUGHTERED the competition!!
-
I had a good time, thanks for hosting Wyldwing.
Let's make sure and get Cosmic Encounter in next time.
Dragon, if you're willing to ride the back seat, and take a road trip to the airport, I'm willing to drive you to and from the next big event.
