Poker Night
Mike got me a poker chip set and a poker table top for Christmas. Would anyone be interested in a poker night? The table has cup holders and chip holders for up to eight people and I so if by some long shot too many people are interested we could split it up to two or three different nights.
I am thinking a Friday night sometime in the next month or two?
Little kids couldn't really play but they could come with you and play something else with Alistair and Adriana. We have lots of stuff to keep little ones occupied, they just have to leave the Gerbils alone though.
BYOB but don't plan on over doing it, there are little kids underfoot. I can provide some soda.
Details on date, time, address, and such will be worked out privately not posted on LJ. Contact me if you are interested.

Last month (February) I attempted to host a poker night. I won't be hosting another one for a long time. I waited to post this until I was over the initial upset so that I wouldn't sound too pouty. The reason I will not host another poker night was because of how miserably the get together failed. while many people said they wouldn't come either due to schedule conflicts or because they just don't play poker, 5 people said they would be there. I planned and prepared for a gathering with 5 or so guests and only one person showed up. Two of the people who didn't show up let me know what was going on and I understood thier reasons. One person didn't let me know and just didn't show up.
This has left me feeling non sociable and lacking in desire to host anything. The next thing I will be sending out invitations for will be my daughters birthday party at the end of August, and that will be mostly family. I don't think I will be attending very many get togethers either (with the exeption of family holiday stuff). I am not trying to pout, just feeling like right now I don't have many true friends. Thanks for understanding.
