    Hey ladies! Shonuff and I were chatting today and were thinking of putting together a North Shore meetup at Venetian Moon in Reading sometime soon.

    I know the holidays are insane, but maybe a martini and some wedding chatter would help take the edge off ;) The Boston meetup was a blast, and we hung out for a couple of hours, with people dropping in and checking out at their leisure.

    Who's in? What nights work best for everyone?

    I'm definitely in!  (btw, this is the bee formally known as shonuff -- I changed names due to my SO's WB snooping!)

    I can do most any night until December 9th, and then again anytime after the holidays.

    What days of the week work best for you ladies? If there's going to be a number of us, we should probably aim for a Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday night.

    The martinis at Venetian are AH.MAZ.ING. and you definitely only need one (at least I only need one... two and you can hear me coming down the street!)

    How about December 1?

    The last meetup was great!

    I've never had a martini, but they sound delicious!

    Mondays or Wednesdays work best for me.

    I'd be down!  Sounds fun!  Tuesdays are no good, but Mondays & Wednesdays are fine... preferably after 630pm.

    Looks like Wednesdays are winners, and later is better. Do we want to say December 2 at 7ish? I can call VM in the next few days with a tentative count. It's a bit pricier than Fajitas and Ritas, but since we're going later, it might be a good idea to eat first. That's my plan, at least!

    Mizz Chips, would you mind putting up a post in the blog so we can alert the not-so-active board ladies? The more the merrier! :)

    Gah!  That's the one day I have to work late.  I'll probably get out at 8:00pm-ish. I'll head straight to VM from work if it looks like I will make it in time.  BUMMER!

    Do we want to bump it to a little later-- 7:30-8ish? I don't want to go too late since it's a "school night," but want everyone to be able to make it :)

    I'm meeting with a florist in Reading at 7:15 so 8 would probably work best for me.

    Ok, let's call it Wednesday at 8ish. The bar downstairs should be open, and would be our best bet.

    See you all there!

    Great!  I'm going to be leaving the city at around 7:30ish, so I'll be a little late. I'll see you all downstairs tonight!

    I got to VM right at 8ish (oh, the benefits of walking up the street), but didn't see/notice/hear that anyone else might have been there. At 8:45, after a delish Bailey's Butterball martini, I bounced. I hope no one was waiting and I missed you!

    Let's try for another shot sometime after the holidays.

    So sorry I didn't come by, I literally just got back from my meeting with the florist. With such a long meeting on top of the awful cold I have, I just wanted to climb in bed!

    Oh man, I couldn't make it either. I sat down to write a paper, looked at the clock, and it was past 8. The worst part is I'm still not done. Let's shoot for something after the holidays! That Bailey's sounds yummy, Leah! Smile

    I JUST missed you, MissLeah!  I got there at 9:00 sharp (I ended up getting out of work way late). I walked in on some other party there -- awkward.  We'll definitely have to try again sometime.

    So close! I probably walked in my front door at like 8:55. The FI just got in from tinkering with his dump truck (literally... I realize it sounds dirty, but he owns a landscaping company and the dump truck's exhaust is acting up!) and that martini is still working its magic. When I said one was enough, I wasn't kidding!

    The FI insists that I was silly for not having anyone's phone number. I told him that's an inherent risk of Internet friends! haha

    Next time, I'll give y'all my address and if we miss each other, I'll make cocktails at my house. Or beers. Whatevs.

    I was sick yesterday!! Miss Leah, I'm so sorry you went all by your lonesome, but that sounds like a delicious martini :)

    It sounds like we have to try again..
