So, nobody cares

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

So, nobody cares

So, nobody cares about planning the next Instant Chat? Cause it seems that way from the zero replies to my thread ("Dang, I missed...").
Continuing plans for the chat here, I guess, if anyone cares.

Hey, I care. But we've just had two ICs. Before now, they were ledgendary. I don't want to be suddenly bugging the Admins about something we've done without until now. Not that you're doing that.

I'm up for it! I'm fine with pretty much any time, except the 16th. That's my birthday, and I'm going to see Wicked, although I don't know what time.

Actually, I'm going a week later due to ticket availability. I don't know the exact date, though...

I can't go in the next two weeks. Meaning this week and next week. Because of day camp. I'll be writing and cartooning. Sorry!

I'd like it to be on a Friday if at all possible. Explain why later, got no time now.

I'm interested too. The last one was less than a week ago though.

Any day/time is fine.  Except mornings aren't so great Monday, Wednesday, or Thursday because I help out with Blu's camp and morning and early afternoon on Tuesday and Friday I work.

Early afternoon of Friday? What about late afternoon? Like around six PM on Friday? I think that would work for me. A weekend would do great, but that won't work with the Admins... 

Admin, what do you saw to this suggested time:

Friday, July 12

5 or 6 PM Eastern Time

 

Neither of us can commit to that time this week, sorry. Check back in a few weeks or so.

Late afternoon should be fine.

I think that if the Admins want to do another Instant Chat they should be the ones that suggest the times, because they're doing all the work.

Admin: Ha! Thanks for that, Gollum. It seems like Mondays and Fridays in the late afternoon will work best for everyone, and we'd rather do instant chats when the most people can get on. However, we're waiting for our boss to approve more instant chat hours.

If I am going to do the next instant chat then we need to do it soon, because I am flying to Washington at 6:30 A.M. on Saturday morning.

-_-

That said, I could always participate in an IC the week AFTER next week because then we will come back from vacation. But then I will not be able to do mornings because I will have writing camp. I think. *checks nearby calendar* Yeah. We'll get back on . . . Sunday night, I think *checks calendar again* yeah, unless we're planning to take another early flight and get back before my writing camp at 9:30. Oh wait, no. Sunday says 'LV Glacier' which I assume means 'Leave Glacier National Park.' So . . . um . . . I'll be back Sunday . . . night, maybe, and then I'll be here all next week. Except mornings, as we have previously established.

And now I have finished boring you all to death with our vacation plans. My work here is done.

I care about the Instant Chat, if only I can get online in time to participate in them! But I think it would be more fun if we do them less frequently--like once a month, instead of once a week. From what I heard, the second Chat was less interesting than the first.

You can read the chats and decide your opinion of them for yourself instead of hearing about them.

First chat: Instant Chat Thre...

Second chat: NEXT INSTANT CHAT:...

Maybe holding off on another Instant Chat until late August or until school begins might be good because schedules are more regulated.  Then most people will be around for week day afternoons/early evening.
