I'm thinking about it.  I know that I'd lean a little more to the "Yes" side if I knew I would have a reliable source of transportation.  (It sucks not being able to drive).

Gah, well I was planning on going today but I don't have a ride. I think I'll make some phone calls to see if anyone else is up.

I was up until 4 last night running my Vampire game.
