Citizenship celebration, Canada Day minus 1

As he noted a few weeks ago, [livejournal.com profile] melted_snowball is becoming a citizen this month.

To celebrate, you are invited to a party at our house, Friday the 30th of June, from 5pm onward.

At Cait & Janelle's artsy-fartsy night this Tuesday, they badgered me mercilessly until I gave them details, made up on the spot, which summarize to:

The theme is citizenship. Wear a flag if you like. Or don't. Really, your choice. Dan will have just been declared a citizen a few hours prior. (in a nice bit of coincidence, two of his students will also become citizens the same day).

Food: I will be making stuff as I see fit, so you don't have to bring. But feel free to also. I hear a rumour a flag cake is in the works.

For number-planning purposes, it would be great if you could let me know if you're coming. Thanks.

Apologies for: the late announcement; and for the timing. I know those of you involved in a certain play will be on stage that evening. But dan's only in town for 4 nights before he's off to a conference, and we decided Canada Day wasn't the best day for it, so it's canada day minus 1.

And since it's the next question people seem to ask: dan's due back July 15th. (yay!)

(yay!)

Woo!

I can not promise I won't be stressed-crazed

'Sok. Every party needs a crazed joymoose.

I'm guessing camp starts the following monday?

waaa! I already have plans to be headed out of town in the opposite direction that day. But I'd look forward to visiting you two sometime this summer, in your town or mine.

Heh. We'll have my google calendar talk to your yahoo calendar.

...Maybe they'll do lunch.

...our schedules are less scheduled starting in August. :)

I'm actually on Google calendar now too. What are your userids (emails) on the system?

My August is pretty empty too.

I shall be in attendance. Either briefly or not so briefly, depending on whether my continued involvement in various capacities with the certain play is still needed.

Cool!

[identity profile] persephoneplace.livejournal.com 2006-06-17 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
I will also be there, length of time depending on whether i am needed for the show too :)

Great! Looking forward to as little/much of you (and the other theatre folks) as we get!

Put me down for a 90% likelihood of making it to the party. Yay!

I will look into my schedule shortly - I forgot my palm pilot today and for some reason my home machine is down.

Cool!

I blame sunspots.

Actually, I do believe the power supply *did* give up under all this heat, but I'll find out when I get home.

[identity profile] ex-halfwitte432.livejournal.com 2006-06-29 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
boyfriend Graham ([livejournal.com profile] arcykittah) and I will be there :)

[identity profile] da-lj.livejournal.com 2006-06-29 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
coolness. :)

[identity profile] nobodyhere.livejournal.com 2006-06-17 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll be there with a flag cake (unless someone else volunteered to bring a flag cake, I can't remember).

[identity profile] da-lj.livejournal.com 2006-06-17 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
You certainly get first dibs on flag-cake-baking. :)
