Anyone interested in a shipmeet? It has been way too long since our last one.

Sure thing. When?

Saturdays are a bit dicey for me, so about anything earlier in the week will work, I think.

I don't have any standing commitments so any week night works for me. I'll leave it to yall to pick a day since you're far more likely to have a standing conflict than I am.

Has anyone tried Soulshine Pizza on Division? I'd like to have an excuse to try it.

I haven't even HEARD of Soulshine Pizza. My May, June and July were absolutely crazy busy, but I'm free as a bird now. I say we let our traveling guests pick a night or two that's good for them, and we can see which works the best for the rest of us.

I think Sine Nomine has a standing Friday night commitment.

Barefoot Friar, pick a night between Monday and Thursday. Thursday nights have the added bonus for a few weeks of a free indie-rock concert series downtown called Live On The Green if you wanted to make it an overnight trip.

Alrighty then. How about........

Monday the 19th? Has the benefit of a) most restaurants get a fresh shipment on Monday, so the food's generally better, and b) generally fewer people eat out early in the week, so it will (hopefully) be quieter and therefore easier to carry on conversation.

Alternates are about any night within that week or the week after.

Fine by me.

Any objections to Soulshine Pizza? Another place I've been wanting to try is M.L. Rose on Charlotte. Craft beers and burgers.

I am actually flying back in from Dallas on the 19th and won't land until 5:05. My husband might not be too keen on me taking off for dinner that evening. Could we make it Tuesday the 20th?

I hate to do this....

It's looking like I cannot come on Tuesday. A couple of small things have conspired together and it's just not going to work out. I am very sorry, and I am very disappointed.

Perhaps next time.

Thursday and Friday of this week are no good for me. I could do tomorrow or any night next week if we want to move the date.

I'm open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday of next week, and the week after that, and the week after that.

Well, if B.F. can come next week (or the next), maybe we should just move our date back a week or so. I am also free most of those nights.

How about a 1-week shift to next Tuesday, the 27th? Same location and time.

I spoke with Tortuf. He said we're all a bunch of squares and he's going without us. [Big Grin]


Nah...next Tuesday is fine with him too.

Hey, it's hip to be a square.

And thanks for swapping weeks. Your kindness shall never be forgotten.
