So, the people who showed up at last Friday's Afternoon Delight (has anyone seen that one episode of Arrested Development? If so, HA! If not, never mind), organized by SocioTom, had tons of fun, drank Coke or Diet Coke or beer, challenged each other, talked too much (well, just me) and, most importantly, wrote A LOT OF WORDS. Let's do it again this Friday!

After exhausting research, it seems like b.Good is a great place to get together and write. They have plugs, yummy sandwiches that are healthy, and the manager told me they don't care if we stay until the cows come home.

So I'll be there right around 1.30, molesting a burger and getting down to word count brass tacks. I hope you'll join me!

Anna

ps. b.Good is at 131 Dartmouth street right by Back Bay station.

I will tentatively say that I will be there, but again, not till 5:15 or 5:30, as I have to wait to get off work. I would love to do it, though, so if people will still be there later on, I would like very much to partake!

Yeah, I have to admit, you had me at "whateverthatwas" too. lol. I'll do my best to get there by 2pm, though I can't stay past 5pm due to class. But yeah, last Friday was fun, and hopefully this time I'll be caught up and it will help me get ahead! (We hope, anyway).

So, long story short, Comcast is a strange group of fellows, and I may end up being a tad bit on the post-1:30 side of things.

But, by Holy Sweet Cupcakes, I shall be there!

Yeah, Comcast is pretty much satan, so far as I can tell.

Will anyone still be there around 5:15 or so? I'd really like to partake of this one (oh god does my word count need the help; I'm staying late at my office today just to write!) but I'd hate to get there only to discover that I would be all by my lonesome, being a lone nerd...

If there are any other Battlestar Galactica fans here, I will bring my exciting new mini-Starbuck to boost morale. She even has a very small cigar and top gun stein! If that isn't word count inducing, I just don't know what is!

Hey irascible, I'll plan on being there until after 5, but I won't be there TOO long after that because I have a posh soiree to host an I haven't really done any, you know, planning.

Hey Irascible. My word count is pitiful as well, so I would love to join you. I'll also be arriving after five (temping in Cambridge) but will get there as soon as possible. If you are going to be there, just confirm close to 5 or so and I'll make my way over there to meet ya'. Laterz!

Aaahhh! So I am still at the office. We have a professor having a tenure review and the records office... well, uh, lost most of her file.

I will not be out of here for a little bit. I seem to have managed to miss this again. :(
