Okay, I'm just trying to get a headcount on how many people, approximately, we're going to be looking at for this party next weekend. If you're planning on coming to the Valentine's Day party that I never officially announced, oops sorry can you leave a comment please? Lemme know if you're bringing a guest, too, if you would? Mostly I want to

I...guess I'll come?
If you still want me to.

[onlynewlife]

Why wouldn't I want you to come? Of course I hope you're coming!

[fixgaeta]

I feel like I should find a date or something.
You know anyone who needs one?

[onlynewlife]

You don't have to, it's totally casual. But, off the top of my head, no I don't. I'll definitely give you a heads up if I find someone looking for one, though :) I'm all for playing Cupid lol

[ittybittyolive]

I'm there!

[Private to Kimberly]
Um, I'm going to try to persuade Ned to come, but he's not a big ... partier. And I'm pretty sure with stupid Chuck ruining his life and her being the reason he ran away here and the fact that he was in love with her and this being the holiday of love and all the shop opening recently he's going to feel like he's got too much to do. But, give him a nudge, okay? Maybe he'll listen to you.

Awesome!

[Private to Olive]
I think he said he'd come, but I'm not sure if he was confused about whether I was referring to the party or to, you know, setting up shop...so yeah if you could see if he could come with, that'd be awesome :) I'll try again though. I'd really like him to come.

Oh my God, girl, he is a tough cookie, you weren't kidding! I'm trying though. Too bad this isn't in person, I could pull out the puppy eyes and quivering chin on him; works every time. If I can't pull it off in the forum you better believe I'm not above pretending to cry at work tomorrow :P

Kimberly / Olive

[ittybittyolive]

You have no idea! Maybe we could both work on him tomorrow at work.

Well, which would you prefer? I've more staff than I'm used to right now, so I think we'll have slightly later hours. No better way to wrap up an evening than pie and coffee, really. Do you have a requested schedule?

Kimberly / Ned

[onlynewlife]

Uh, I don't know, not really. I'm kind of a morning person so if no one wants the opening shift, I'll take that. If you're willing to give me a set schedule, I'm definitely all for that so that I can make plans around it instead of having to ask you to let me out early here or switch a shift with George or Olive there, etc.

...you also avoided my question...does that mean you're not gonna come? :(

Kimberly / Ned

[piehole_shut_it]

Fair enough. Would four or five days a week be better for you? I think Olive probably wouldn't mind a reprieve from some of the opening shifts, either.

I--it sounds nice, but parties aren't exactly my thing.

Kimberly / Ned

[onlynewlife]

Um...whatever's better for everybody else, honestly. I think to start five days would be better if we're talking 40 hour weeks because I've never worked 10 hour shifts and I think I'd drive Olive insane trying to do it with no experience under my belt lol

Oh come on, you don't have to stay for the whole thing and I won't even solicit you for Drinking Jenga. Please come? Pleeeease? Just make an appearance? You'll be bruising my ego if you don't, you know... ;)

[onlynewlife]

Well, the holiday (or whatever) being used is mainly for convenience reasons, if that makes you feel any better :) Totally, I want everybody to come - bring your friends along with hon!
