If it's just gonna be the three of us, we could do West on Centre, which is a neat kind of localish place. If more people are going to make it, we should probably do something more central. I'd invite you to my place for BBQ pulled pork, but it's a cleaners day, so I have no idea what time they're coming. It probably wouldn't be much fun to try to eat while they're cleaning.

Does that mean dinner and/or drinks is out Thursday? Lunch isn't really feasible, but I got no plans after work.

I can't do Thursday this week. Sorry.

Lunch isn't very feasible for me, either (I have a thing in Burlington at 1 PM) but I'll be free after 3:30. I can also travel into Boston or out to the 'burbs....

The status is NOT quo.
I think I'd like to drive home to my Mom's after lunch Thursday, but if most of you can't make dinner on the 23rd as an alternative, I'll definitely stay for dinner this Thursday instead.
Does that makes sense? I've taken Dramamine to stop the vertigo spinniness, and I think it's making me a wee bit disty. Also problems with the spelling thing.

Oh, I completely missed the post about the 23rd. That works fine for me. Better than Thursday actually.

Kristin -- will you be free next Tuesday to hang out? That day's probably the best for me in your time frame. I don't work that day and I don't have any plans. Want to come hang out in lovely Northampton?

I can do dinner on Monday night the 23rd. I can organize it as well- what kind of place are we thinking of (cuisine-wise)? Also, what area is preferable? Boston, Cambridge, specific neighborhoods in either? Somerville? I'd prefer not to get too much further out than that (i.e., Brookline or whatever) because it takes me far away from the train station. The closer I am to the train, the more time I have to hang out!
Folks can post here or email me to let me know if they're in. I'll make a reservation and whatnot.

The big thing is, make sure wherever we think of going (if it's the 23rd) is open. Some places are closed on Mondays, and not necessarily just high-end ones.
I know on the Somerville front, Redbones (BBQ) or Dali (Tapas) will always get my vote.
But pretty much open to anything.

Yeah, I'll do my research, not to worry! (see, I had no idea that the brunch place would be closed because of the burst pipe, so not my fault!)
North End might be nice. Monday nights can be quiet at the places that are open, and there's a range of prices/styles of Italian food. Also if some folks aren't up for the whole dinner and caboodle, we can meet up for cannolis at Mikes or Modern Pasty afterward.
