I had a blast, so thanks for having me along! The end of the night was fine, I really enjoyed playing the games - not enough people enjoy games.

I would have been more than happy to take a cab, but Rene insisted ... sorry that I had to bail out on breakfast, but I had to babysit Tuesday and Wednesday. I needed to be sure to get plenty of rest to avoid hangover and handle the kids.
