hazing

greetings from atlanta. here for work today, and sticking around for a fraternity alumni event tomorrow. i think i'm close to using up all of dr. wintermute's patience on my activities as a fraternity alum. what can i say? i love it. forty, not four. anyway, got to hang with a bunch of old co-workers at the booz allen alumni event in midtown, and then have been babysitting for the six sigma enigma's kids while he and his wife enjoy a night of free babysitting.

tonight, however, i am missing the festivities with the enemy of my enemy crew. j-watt is in town with new dude (who looks eerily like he could be related to her!). however, i'll be home tomorrow, and we'll all hanging out tomorrow night, too. am looking forward to meeting him. this is the first time we've had any newcomers to the crew in well...a long time. in fact, dr. wintermute is still kind of the new kid on the block (considering that bloodninja, mrs. bloodninja, the chief, chief chick, big game, j-watt, and momma cass all go back to first semester freshman year)!

we've also just set the date for the annual gathering, which will be in awesometown this year. the chief and chief chick just moved 2 miles down the road from us, and now between the two residences, we have room to house everyone. anyway, we'll have a new dude, and he's going to be in for some...uhh, hazing. good natured, mostly. the real sign of acceptance will be when he can roll with the mom jokes. might give him a test run tomorrow night in georgetown.
