Tuesday nights open

I'm looking for social time on Tuesdays: my regular RPG is on hiatus this month, and when it resumes, it will be on alternating weeks.

So, if you're available and inclined to get together tonight (and/or upcoming Tuesday evenings), reply here or fire me an e-mail. I finish work around 5:30, and then take the bus from the business parks in Kanata North. I'm up for dinner, pool, movie, gaming, general hanging out, and in fact most things.

Hmmm... intriguing, although I generally prefer dinner after the climbing to before it. Exceptions can be made, though; what time ranges work for you, and where would work for dinner?

QNX is installing a generator this evening, and I think they're shutting down power at 5:30pm, which is around your finished work time, too, from the sound of it. I could easily head out a touch earlier to grab you from work.

I like to have some food before climbing, otherwise I tend to run out of energy to do any climbing. Usually I grab a sub from Subway on the way there. (I also often eat after, but that's by raiding the fridge when I get home.) I don't want too heavy a meal beforehand, though. Otherwise, Sukhothai (in Bells Corners) would be an idea. I don't know if they're fast enough. (I'm also meeting someone from work for climbing, our official meet up time is 7pm, with the expectation that will mean he's there by about 7:30pm. So there is some flexibility if we go a bit long.) I think west end is best, so that more traffic clears out before we head across the city.

that restaurant has moved and added more tables - so it's crowded.

That's the hearsay I received at least. =)

We'd be early for dinner, so maybe not too crowded, and on a Tuesday.

I didn't know it had moved... if we don't go, I'll have to look on my next trip through BC.

Yes, it moved into the old Kentucky Fried Chicken. Jim and I tried to just show up and eat (on a Friday or a Saturday night at 8) and they looked at us strangely not having reservations and then sat us somewhere where I had elbows within 2 inches of me (from other tables) on both sides.

We left.

Left as in, will call ahead next time, or as in, will not be going there next time?

My life is so last minute in terms of that sort of thing that making reservations is something I find very difficult. I just don't KNOW that I'm going to go out very far in advance.

That said, there were tables that had more space (and privacy), and I would certainly eat there again if I knew no one's elbow was going to be in my side. The food is yummy.

OK, let's do it that way. There's a Quizno's not far from where I work; how does that sound?

I'll need to stop in for a few minutes at home to get suitable clothes, gear etc.; is that ok?

Quizno's sounds good. Now, I just need to know either where you work, or where the Quizno's is, in case meeting there would be easier.

Yes, I assumed that stopping by your place for suitable clothes, etc, would be required. I've got climbing gear with me, cause I knew I would be heading out climbing -- I didn't expect you'd have been that psychic.

Where I work is easier, both logistically and navigationally; e-mail coming your way!

Actually, I was that psychic; I just didn't want to freak you out.

If you'd been that psychic, you'd have sent me the email this morning. :)

I am cell-enabled, so can call on arrival if that helps.

As if I had time to do much this morning... this two projects thing is rough, because of the task-paging overhead.
