Ruth and I will be in Colorado after Christmas, but I'm not sure if we'll have the time for a get-together.

First post in about 5 years. :-P I am a frequenter of the chat, and I will be in CO next week. Hope I'll get to see some of you!

I think that probably would be too late, sorry. Narr and Temposs are only going to be there until the Monday after Christmas. Maybe next time?
I haven't checked into what day would work best for me yet, but we could brainstorm what we want to do. ROTK is a possibility, but I don't know if I will have seen it with my family yet, and I was waiting to see it first with them. Any other ideas? Food is always good. Or you know, we could go bowling or something. What do you guys think?

Care me not, save that it be ist best that we did postpone our meeting such that the heavnly bells of Christmas did not distort the trumpet calls of our visitation.

Does that mean you couldn't do anything before Christmas, Hobbes? Because I am thinking that either the 23rd or the 29th would work best for me, and I don't know when on the 29th Narrativium and Temposs would be leaving. I have to ask to make sure, but I think my dad will probably want to do family stuff from Christmas Eve until Sunday. I don't think he has the day before Christmas Eve or the Monday afterwards off from work though.

After would be better. Starting the evening of the 23rd going through the 25 (duh ) I'll be unavliable. By the way, I have no idea what possesed me to write it like that.
So, earlier in the day on the 23rd might work for you? I'm just wondering because chances are the 29th won't work for Narr and Temp.

Cool! Yeah, it sounds like Jon and Ruth are going to be busy, but I'd totally be up for meeting twice if they could come.

The morning of Tuesday the 23rd will probably work for me. The evening of Saturday the 27th (after 6:00) will also work but Sunday the 28th is a maybe, since I may be going snowmobiling that day.

We'd love to have you if you want to come, Ravenclaw! It looks like the morning of the 23rd will be the best, but no one else has made any suggestions. We could go out to breakfast maybe? Brunch if we want it to be later (since Temposs is going to be in Longmont). There's always The Buff restaurant that serves good breakfast. I don't know, what do you guys want to do?

I discovered that my Christmas-eve-eve dinner was cancelled, so the 23rd would work any time of day. However, I'd like to know soon since relatives are coming to visit for a while and it's nice to warn them when you'll be gone.
Does anyone have any input as to what we want to do? We can do basically anything, up to and including playing games at my house (my mom's invitation ). So, what shall it be?

And the fire did descend down upon Hobbes and di sit upon his brow as a crown of flame. And Hobbes did look forth among the people and declare unto them "keep thine wishes and spread good cheer among the children of men, for I do not care what we do at out meeting."

OK, we have a situation on our hands. I talked to Temposs, and he actually doesn't get in to Colorado until late in the afternoon on Tuesday. So, the problem is I'm not sure if the 26th or 27th works for me (my dad doesn't get many days off work and we were going to spend those days together), I'm going to talk to my family about it so we'll see.
Hobbes and Temposs are both ok with the 26th or 27th. What about you Narr? Or what time on Monday do you have to leave?
posted
If Ruth and I can do something, it'll be the 29th or 30th. We'll let you know when we get our plans figured out.

I can possibly do the evening of the 25th (probably after 6:00), or the 26th during the day. But if we do that, I need to know as soon as possible, so I can adjust other plans.

Well, Christmas is definitely out, so it looks like the 26th will have to be the day. I haven't talked to my dad yet, but I could probably manage to come to something on the 26th as long as it was not very long.
As far as what we do, I talked to Temposs and we thought it might be fun to go to the Cheesecake Factory for cheesecake and then wander around Pearl Street. Any objections? Any problems with Cheesecake? There's plenty we could do if there are people that don't like that idea.
Edit: I totally meant the 26th or 27th in my earlier post! The 25th is Christmas! I'm a little silly... Sorry!

I don't like Cheescake. I do like the restraunt but if we're just going there for desert... well on the other hand deserts never been that big a deal to me, I could bring something else and just eat with you guys.

Cheesecake is good. Other things are good too. Hobbes should tell me when there are plans because I keep forgetting to put this thread on my list of threads to lurk around in...

You don't like cheesecake, Hobbes! That's crazy. Well, you could always order an appetizer or something. They also have a wide assortment of daquiris that you can order (virgin-style of course ). Or else we could go somewhere else. Do you have any ideas?

So, once we get the ok from Narr we'll be set for the 26th. Now we just need a time. It seems cheesecake would be good in the early afternoon. (Really, when is cheesecake not good? )
Any preferences as to what time?

The 26th is fine. The earlier, the better, because I have to be home by 4:00. And it looks like I'll probably have access to a car.

Cool! How about 1:00? Meet at the restaurant. I think that would be best. We'd have plenty of time to eat and wander around Pearl Street, and you could get home by 4:00, Narr. Temposs has said that the 26th would work. I'll just have to try and get a hold of him by then to give him details.
This will be fun!
Oh, and Merry Christmas!

As far as I know, everyone is coming. So, unless something comes up before then, I'll see you all at 1:00!

I figured people could order whatever they wanted. Being a poor college student, I'll probably just order something small and then cheesecake.

Narrativium and Temposs (if you check this before you leave), Hobbes said he was probably going to be early and that he would get the table under 'Hobbes'. So, if you can't find us at the front of the restaurant, that's where we'll be.
Hey Jon Boy & Brinestone! Are you going to be able to squeeze in a little get together during your time here? I know I can see you two whenever up at school, but Hobbes probably wants to meet this infamous Hatrack couple. We'd love to do something, even if it's very short.

I'm going to the latest matinee of ROTK with my family tomorrow, but before that would work for me. I'm not sure exactly what time it will be, but definitely 4:00 or later.

That works fine for me but we best decide soon, I normally get up late so... I need to know before I turn in for the night (which is also late, but we do need to decide tonight).
