Housefilk!

We will be hosting a housefilk on Saturday, Feb. 18th. We'll be starting singing at 6. People can come a bit earlier. (Want to help tidy up? Come lots earlier! ;-) )

It will be a themed filk, for the Valentine's Day holiday.
  • Tender love songs,
  • bereft love songs
  • weird love songs
  • downright bizarre and creepy love songs!
Bring out the Tom Lehrer, and all that. I just know filkers won't let me down on this.

We'll probably sing other songs, too, but let's see what we can come up with for the theme. Come and bring your singing voice, your instrument if you play one, your filk books, munchies or drinks, bring a friend, but know that all of those are optional. But definitely bring yourself! Come ready to pick, pass, play and enjoy. Leave me a comment and an email address for directions if you need 'em.

Hihi! Andy and I aren't doing anything that weekend!

We'd love to come up and visit, extended if you want us to, since that'll be after my last week at my temp job, and before our next round of tournaments.

Yay! We're rearranging rooms, turning Brendan's green room into a guest room - we'll see if we can get it cleaned out this weekend. I suspect it'll still be the foldout couch. It'll be lovely to see you.

I haven't talked to him about it much, but I suspect we'd be happy to help with the manual labor and stuff. A thought that occurs to me, if everyone thinks it would be fun, would be come Saturday, stay through Tuesday morning, and go fence with friends in the Dallas area on Monday evening.

Yay housefilk!

You guys are still coming, right?

We got the guest room set up last night, still with the couch, I'm afraid, but it's ready.

We'd still love to have you come early to help get the place ready!

Yep! Totally still coming. There's a party a friend is hosting Friday evening, but we figured to drive up midday Saturday, stay until Tuesday whenever? Fence with friends Monday night. Sound good? Also, totally enthused about helping with whatever projects are needing doing, playing with kids, helping out - looking forward to it!!

Weather is looking interesting for Saturday. Hope you're keeping an eye on it.

What, it's going to rain, right?

Oh crap. It's Sunday morning that's going to be the problem. I WILL be going to 8 am Sunday service, I'm the lector.

Eh, I'm going to bet it won't get *quite* that cold.

I don't think getting there Saturday afternoon will be any big deal based on the present forecast. Getting home late Saturday / early Sunday could be a bit more challenging. Still too early to know for sure. Winter weather around here is always tricky to forecast accurately.

Hopefully NWS is overstating the forecast out of caution again.
