Hey John, how are things? I met up with Meri, Erin and Loren a little while ago and they mentioned you were trying to get everyone together but that the date didn't work out. What are you up to these days??
John, you sure have a knack for picking days for get-togethers that I already have booked! I promise one of these days I will actually make it, I'm just SO busy this week. I'm sorry! Raise a pint for me. :)
Hi John...happy new year. I talked to Marty the other day and getting everyone together for some drinks sounds like a great idea. Keep me posted on a date that works. Talk soon
