I simply can't bring the dog. She'd never survive the other animals. It would be messy and I don't want to clean up the mess. Besides, she gets snappish and ill-tempered when she's frightened. (Which makes her name, Shalom, rather ironic, actually. She's anything but peaceful, really.) She rides the car, well. But, that's about it. She's a suck and she's proprietary. Taking care of her somewhere other than home would take all the fun out of my gaming on me, so I won't do it. I can leave her for a few hours, but that's it.
Though, frankly, if Aleriel brings her laptop and you bring the wireless router, I can set up my old computer that I brought to your place last weekend. It does still work, after all. And I have the laptop and Mom's machine. That gives us 4 already easily portable or available which basically means just bringing one computer along instead of 3. As an option, at any rate.
Oh, and I'm perfectly willing to have Friday to myself, too. Actually, I think I'd prefer it.
If I have to dogsit, though I'm willing to leave for a few hours, I would want to be back home by dinner time to feed her and let her out. That will probably interrupt Cluck-ups or a resumed session of Circus. (Cluck-ups is at 1pm, yes? Or some other time? I can't remember.) So, that's somethig to consider especially since we should be able to continue one or the other throughout the evening.
Thus, unless there are any strenuous objections or the whole computer thing becomes entirely too problematic, I really would prefer sticking closer to my own home if we can, in that event. I'll flex as well I can, of course, but that is my preference.
Uhm, I thought that's what I was implying, with the whole location depends on dogsitting thing? I was assuming that if you were dogsitting, we'd be at your place. If you're not dogsitting, then location becomes flexible.
Essentially, we've determined a date and time. The place determination will wait until Friday evening, when you find out if you are or are not dogsitting. That, you see, is the primary concern for location. It didn't matter particularly for date and time.

If I'm not dogsitting, then it's much easier to be at your place, I'm quite certain.
Saturday, 10am.
