My apologies to everyone who looked at the game night announcement, saw "February 2" (which I wrote because I'm a huge dork) and thought game night was tonight. I'm so embarrassed. Don'tcha just love having well-dressed, smiling people show up at your door when you're not expecting anyone, your house is a mess, and the only thing you can think of to say to "We're looking for Serene" is "I'm Serene. Who are YOU?"

Anyway, as always, it's First Fridays, and I hope to see you there. I've fixed the announcement, which is at http://serenejournal.livejournal.com/1010443.html

*sighhh*

[sorry, no locals filter]

This Friday night is game night at my place. I'm having surgery on Tuesday, so snacks are likely to be plentiful as always, but fairly low on the labor-intensiveness scale (read: chips and salsa, soda -- stuff like that).

We start at 7. We will have more chairs this time. :-) And for those who liked Fluxx last time, we now have Monty Python Fluxx, in addition to the original game.

More details at http://serenejournal.livejournal.com/1010443.html <http://serenejournal.livejournal.com/1010443.html>

See some of you there!

First Friday is Game Night at my place in North Oakland. If you are up for it, please do come. All the info is, as always, at http://serenejournal.livejournal.com/1010443.html

Hope to see some of you there!

Oh, and if you're coming, feel free to request your favorite game-night snacks. I like being Snack Wench. :-)

Game night at my place tomorrow. There will be (because of course I care about the food as much as the game) homemade cream puffs and a big pot of chili. There will be lots of games to choose from. There will be chips and coffee and iced tea, probably. There will not be soda unless you bring it. Come one, come all. Did I mention the homemade cream puffs? :-)

Game night was cozy and fun the first Friday last month; and boisterous, crowded, and fun on the third Friday. We're going to keep doing this until the neighbors get a cease and desist order. :-) However, we're skipping the 3rd Friday this month, because [livejournal.com profile] serenejournal & [livejournal.com profile] someotherguy will be out of town.

On the first Friday of the month, it'll be at my place in North Oakland; on the 3rd Friday, it'll be at [livejournal.com profile] stonebender's place in San Leandro. More details at http://serenejournal.livejournal.com/1010443.html -- hope you can come!

October's date is the 3rd -- the scheduled game night on the 17th has been cancelled.

We have a teenager, so if you have another disaffectoid -- er, I mean teen -- who might want to play board games, or hop on my computer and join her in World of Warcraft or something, bring 'em along. Just let me know if they want to do WoW the day before, because I'll need to download the thing.

[EDIT: This is now the permanent game-night post. Any changes to the game-night info will show up here first. In addition, dates for the next game nights will be posted here. So will any cancellations.]

Several of you have asked me when we're going to start game night again, and the answer is "Now". Well, sort of.

Game night at Serene's / Game night at Guy's:

When: 1st & 3rd Fridays every month, 7pm - ? (Next game nights are February 6th and 20th)

Where:
  • 1st Friday: Serene's place, North Oakland (not wheelchair-accessible)
  • 3rd Friday : [livejournal.com profile] stonebender's, San Leandro (wheelchair-accessible entry; the bathroom is less so)
[If you don't know where we live, please email for directions.]

What: Games. Board games and/or RPG. (That is, we'll plan to play board games, and if anyone wants to start up an RPG alongside the boardgamers, [livejournal.com profile] someotherguy has agreed to make that happen.)

Who: You and anyone you want to invite. RSVPs are very helpful, but if you forget to RSVP, please come anyway.

What to bring: You don't have to bring anything. If there are snacks/drinks/games that you especially want to have there, feel free to bring them, but we will provide substantial amounts of trashy (and non-trashy) snacks, lots to drink, and a pile of games to choose from, including Apples to Apples, Monopoly, Fluxx, Checkers/Chess, Trouble, playing cards, etc.

A note about kids: Our places are not childproofed, but they're kid-friendly. We have building toys and DVDs for the munchkins, but if that doesn't captivate them, you're in charge of entertaining your little ones.

If you have food or environmental allergies, please do let us know so that we can do our best to accommodate you.

For my birthday month (September), if you ask me to go do something with you, the answer is almost certainly going to be no, unless you're my partner or I've already made plans with you*. Open-door dinner policy is cancelled for the month; Craft nights are off, too.

I love y'all, and like hanging out with you, but I'm completely burned out, and I feel my hermitage calling me, so please don't feel hurt if I don't wanna hang out with you for a while. Catch me in October?

(By the by, I'm setting this theoretical deadline because I have a tendency to get mired in hermitage for years at a time, and though that hasn't happened in a long time, I feel like it's possible here. However, if October comes around and I still feel this way, I'll let ya know.)

NOTE: This month's Craft Night and Game Night are still on, and if you attend one or both, you get to meet (or see again) Munchkin The Younger, also known as [livejournal.com profile] wtfpotatoes.

Time is 7pm until people wander home.

If you need to know how to get there, let me know.
