scheduling and other impossible events

Well, my brilliant plan (reorganize my Sundays so that I have the mornings off and the afternoons on) looks like a dud -- while Darkside has his Sunday mornings free, Neighbor does not.

I have school or work until eight every weeknight; Darkside has work until at least seven three weeknights out of five; Neighbor has a similarly bad evening schedule. Neighbor has Saturdays all free; some bits of some Sundays. Darkside has to work at two in the afternoon both weekend days. I don't get off work on the weekends until 4:30 in the afternoon on Saturdays, 2:30 in the afternoon on Sundays.

I could re-work my schedule so that I begin work at 3pm on Sundays, thus leaving the entire morning free, and that would be absolutely lovely -- but for the fact that Neighbor doesn't have all of his Sundays free.

This is just a lovely mess.

Neighbor called Darkside to work out a gaming schedule. Looking at it, Darkside's response: "Well, you don't have to have me there in order to play..."

Neighbor refrained, just barely, from bursting out and yelling, "But you're the entire reason that Azure's agreed to GM for us! You have to be here!" Instead, he said, "Um... you may have a point."

We'll see. Neighbor may have to take Darkside aside some day and explain a few facts of life to him, like the general concept that I like to *watch* RPG's in progress and laugh my ass off at them, but the only way you'll get me to a gaming session is if friends of mine are there, and the only way you'll get me involved in actual gaming is if someone I'm romantically interested in is urging me to. Neighbor's known me, or at least known *of* me, for quite some time... including the concrete + head thing...

Oy.

This is going to be fun.
