Ugh, it makes me so sad that I work Friday-Sunday, and I’m typically unable to attend most events held on Fridays. I’ll still try to make time, but I hope everyone has fun! Someone better make a cat or dog with my name, if by chance I don’t make it.

(on the phone) "Uh, yeah, cancel those Black Friday shopping plans. I'm busy with something at 5. Homework? Not really, uhh... it's complicated."
Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

Like many others, I will be working on that day. Is it possible if the day could be changed? I think a lot of people are either going to be working or spending time out because of Black Friday.
Nope, not possible. We've already made the reservation and put an advance payment on the banquet room. At least thirty users have already RSVP'd and paid for their plane tickets; some are even making their way through airport security as we speak. In these unprecedented times, it would be irresponsible for us to force them to spend even more money on hotel rooms and other services if we were to move the event back.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

To those who didn't come: the banquet room vanished and we spent most of the day jousting and wandering around the island doing murder mystery. Very disappointing, I wanted to overindulge in food and throw up.
