Alright
*sigh*
This is going to be more work than I expected. If we want good seats for the show, we'll need to call tomorrow (I'm not kidding either). Reservations for the restaurant will be easy, no problem. But finding the means to pay for the ridiculously expensive tickets...
We shall discuss it with the others, I suppose. It's going to be tough to pull off, but I think if we all get our acts together (as a procrastinator it kills me to say that), we'll be able to do this, and do it right!

Well, we don't have to do the Blue Man Group thing ... we could always plan for something not quite so expensive, and perhaps not quite so exclusive ...

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure we are all a bunch of really great, interesting people, but should we just keep it to lunch somewhere then drinking at a bar?
I'm sure we'll amuse ourselves, come to think of it. We don't need to pay sixty bucks a pop just to see a great live show!
Any preferance as to where we should have lunch?

You guys plan whatever you want, I probably won't be able to make it anyway. Living in the northwest part of Pa. puts me pretty far from Boston.

Actually, vacation time (and money) may be a problem for me also. No matter what I'll be there in spirit if not in the flesh! I'll be glad to do anything that I can to help, just let me know.

I'm in! I know the perfect place, this little pizza place at the Quincy Market...I must find the name. Some friends and I did the Great Boston Tour a few years back, and I think some sightseeing would be a good Idea.

Quincy Market!
Of course! Why hadn't I thought of that?
There are over fifty different restaurants in Quincy Market, so we might have trouble finding one pizza place.
Anyway, George, you're a genius! Quincy Market is cheap (respectively speaking, as opposed to seeing Blue Man Group), and takes no preparation whatsoever, save a phone call of two if we want to make a reservation!

Guess what? I discussed the possibility of going to Boston with my warden, I mean wife, and she was all for it. If she's convinced it's her idea, and wants to go badly enough, the money will come from somewhere! So, as of now, count me (us) in, YAY!!! 
Quincy Market sounds great. My wife was there a few years ago & loved it.

So when were we planning to get together again?
Don't mind my inquiry. I was just curious because I seem to have forgotten these past two days I've been awake

Meet-Up: Boston: Next Year: Quincy Market
We're still ironing out the wrinkles.

Right.
I was just asking if any of the wrinkles like, when we'd meet (autumn is about three months long), were wrinkled out yet.
But like I said, don't mind me...

We're not sure about month. Some work in August, and some start school then too. And Boston in winter is, not bad, but not all that great.
