February GTG

[les]

Let's make it happen!

I think a trivia night or dinner out on a weeknight would work best for me and be relatively simple to organize. Is anyone interested? I attached a poll with prospective dates, so we can plan something when most people are available.

I won't vote but I miiiiight join you depending on how the details work out. I'm scheduled to be home most of these dates but it depends if I'm allowed a night off from cleaning up in preparation for putting the house on the market.

Yay! I hope you are able to make it. Also, I usually have a couple days off during the week so if you have free time during the day while you're visiting, I would love to meet for breakfast, lunch, coffee, whatever.

That would be awesome, but I'll be working during the day since that's part of my deal (which is why cleaning is relegated to the evening and why I might not be able to come to a GTG).  But if things are looking light, maybe we could at least grab coffee somewhere nearby.  I'll let you know if it pans out!

Ah, that makes sense. I hope the cleaning process is as easy as possible. Let me know if/when you have some free time!

I can't see the poll- can someone tell me the choices? I may be able to do a tues, thurs, or sun night. The further west of the city the location is makes it more likely I can make it.

I'm on school vacation on the 23rd so that would work for me!

[Awkward]

No way can I make it down on a weeknight.  I'll try again with you guys in April.

[elfinia7]

I'm free most of those weeknights. I'm just out on Tues as that's when I meet my trainer and I've already got plans for the 23rd.

The 11th is my bday. So i might be busy...

DH and I will likely go to dinner somewhere nice.  Although we haven't really talked about it.  I am celebrating with family this Friday.  We're doing a game night with apps and drinks.  I would normally skip it, but then I get complaints that they didn't get to see me.  I guess it's good to be loved.

Wednesdays work best for me.

And I'm going to sneak in my apology for dropping the ball on a January GTG right here

I forgive you!

[bostonmichelle]

I'm out for during the week at the moment. Think of me working away while you are having fun and drinking! Please just have a drink or two in my honor.

[vtdiamond]

I'm out for week nights these days. I miss you all though! Could we try to do a weekend lunch/ brunch next month? I'm happy to plan!!

Do it!

[vtdiamond]

Aww thanks! I'm happy to plan the March GTG!

[caligirl22]

Weeknights are tough for me but I will see what date wins and see if I can make it!

[les]

Based on the poll results and my schedule, I think February 16th would work best. I am available at 6 pm or later. If you wouldn't mind coming to Davis Square, I propose either dinner (maybe at The Painted Burro?) or trivia (Johnny D's has trivia at 8:30 pm on Mondays). Let me know if you're interested and what your preference is!

[elfinia7]

I'm game gor dinner at6pm on the 16th. I've got a meeting back on campus at 7:30 so Davisespecially The Burro works for me. ?

Perfect! I would honestly prefer an earlier dinner. Let's plan on 6 pm at The Painted Burro. Anyone else in?

I can even meet earlier if that works too. :-)

I can make it a little earlier as long as I get out of work on time and we don't have another winter storm that day. How's 5:45? 

If anyone else is interested, but can't make it that early, I don't mind if you show up a little late.

[elfinia7]

I'm game! I'll be there with bells on.

[LoveTrains]

The 16th? I think that is president's day.

It is. It's a normal workday for me. Do you have it off?

[LoveTrains]

Yes I get off all holidays!

Yes, plan a lunch/brunch so I can join too and see you again and meet everyone else!

I have it in my calendar but will have to play it by ear as to whether I can make it. I definitely won't be there before 6pm though.

Is it going to be a nightmare trying to park over there?

It might be a little difficult due to the snow. There is a small parking lot in the square, but I'm not sure how well it has been cleared. Worst case scenario: park in the garage at Alewife and take the T? It's just one stop away and your car will be protected in a covered structure.

[cgpm]

I'm a maybe. I'm technically free that night but weeknights to the city are hard. I go to bed too early. :-(

[dougthedogsmom]

I voted and depending on the night and location, think I may be able to join you all. Honestly, after so many days of being stuck in the house with DH, DD, and the dog, I could use a night out. That is, if it is ok with you all. I know I am new and haven't posted a ton. I swear I am not THAT weird
