Kittens will not be used as currency

Okay, who wants to contemplate a bit of fun?

As much as I love Club Vivid, I'm not gonna be able to dance this year. This would be sad, because as crappy a dancer as I am, I do love my yearly drunken awkward shuffle. And I had this mental image of me sitting there on the sidelines half-heartedly waving a glowstick with a little cloud of doom over my head (it would still be raining glitter though, it is CVV after all).

And then I thought, but wait! I have an IDEA! Who is up for a poker game in the Comet room during CVV? It could be a sort of ongoing thing with people changing in and out at the table as they go back to dance or admire cleavage or whatever. I think I would feel less sad about the not dancing if I also had something to do in addition to hanging out on the chairs in the dance room. In fact, I think when I did hang out on the chairs it would include much more vigorous and cheerful glowstick shaking if I did. I still kinda want the cloud of raining glitter though.

So, poker? Anyone? I'll be sure to bring chips and sodapop.

Also, ::ducks head:: um...jarrow? Can you teach me how to play poker again?

(obvs I will be rather easy to beat, if that is an incentive for any of you)

I don't know what I'm going to do without my yearly rubbing of the heads of Eunice and Zen.

I think that sounds like an awesome idea. I can't understand poker so I'd never be able to play, but I could totes have come and been your lucky lady and wear a slinky dress and throw cleavage around.

I WILL MISS YOU TOO, OMG

If it helps, Zen and I both have hair this year so you're not missing as much? Though I think I may well still shave it before. I started growing it out again because I COULD DAMMIT. Now it's just irritating me.

I am going to try to dance a tiny bit, but mostly I am going to be trying to respect my knees and watch shiny vids, so I would definitely be up for at least a hand of poker if you'll have me!

YAY!!!

If we got the people for it, how would you feel about also playing hearts and/or gin rummy and/or other card games?

[fan_eunice]

Definitely! Tara is bringing Uno to the room, I think?

I am kind of married to the idea of wearing one of those green visors and a fake cigar and playing poker for at least a little while (note: I have only played once before and have forgotten how so this should be HILARIOUS)

But also having multiple card games back sounds like a lot of fun! CVV is kind of exhausting even for people who love to dance, so I think if we build it, they will come, at least for ten minutes or so. :)

I have not played Uno since I was in elementary school! *so much excitement* I also have board games, though that might be more appropriate to set up for a room party, seeing as they would definitely take longer.

You should totally wear a visor and bring a fake cigar! I can bring candy cigarettes. I always get a little confused about some of the rules (five card draw is the only version I am truly familiar with), but the internet will refresh my memory, I am sure.
