Lost in Translation was seen by me last night (along with a bunch of other people).

It's charming. And sweet. And painful. And really good at making one *feel* how it is to be lonely.

Not something I really needed help remembering. Leaving the group and going home was interesting.

Not a movie I plan to own, even though it was good enough to almost make me cry. Too painful, and I'm not going to watch it ever again.

overloaded schedule syndrome

Quite. :) Also, I really prefer my schedule when not at work to be more... flexible. Having lots of weekly things rather defeats that goal.

"weekend one shots" [...] probably be organizing one late in the spring

This sounds more promising! Although, it needs to be when I'm around.

I'm definitely gone April 24-27th (company meeting), May 1st-4th (visiting shadesong), probably the last weekend in June, and unknown times later in the year for various things like Baitcon and Bicamp.

Any idea when?

I have several friends who have given me a similar message - that is, they want to play but can't do the weekly thing. Off the top of my head, 4 people come immediately to mind; with you, that would be 5, a good size for a party if I don't say myself.

Based off of your restrictions above... it sounds like the weekend of April 10-11 and the weekend of April 17-18 would be free for you. Is that correct? Let me know, and I'll do an e-mail around to my other waiting-in-the-wings folks and see whom I can summon.

Tentatively, yes.

I realized I forgot to ask how late it would go on Sunday. It matters not only because of work on Mondays, but also because I periodically have energy work group on Sunday nights, including April 11th. It starts at 7pm-ish, in Bolton.

I'd rather say that it will run late on Sunday (read that as 9-ish) and then have it resolve early then say it will resolve earlier and then not be done on time. Just to avoid the complication, let's say April 17-18 and avoid the conflict altogether. The way this works is that we will do character creation in advance, you'll have your background in advance, and when we get together on Saturday morning (say 10), we can jump straight to gaming. The game runs 10 to 10 on Saturday, then starts again on Sunday at 10 and runs until 9. I have to work on Mondays as well (I wake at 5:10 and catch a 5:30 bus), so I can certainly sympathize with not wanting to be out late on Sunday. Let me know if that works for ya.

That works. I shall put it into my Palm as a tentative plan, since I believe you still need to talk to the other prospective players?
