I'm in, too. I believe this will be my first SoupDo. I'm local but in past years, the date didn't work for me but I'll be home next week and able to attend.

I finish work around 6pm a few blocks south. Since that's still a couple of hours before the DO, I would be amenable to grabbing a drink or two beforehand either at La Bonne or somewhere else nearby if that interests anybody.

I reconfirmed for Friday at 8p

I'll come earlier to greet everyone since it's been two plus years seeing everyone

If you have to cancel call the restaurant.

See you Friday night

I just posted to Catmans Facebook page asking his neighbor Tucker and Theresa to check in on him. This was at 10:00 pm (2200).

It was wonderful to see everyone tonight, both old and new friends alike. Looking forward to the rest of the weekend, though I don't expect to make it to Brooklyn tomorrow

I was asked to not say anything about Mark a couple of weeks ago. This message was posted on his Facebook page by one of his friends. Since it's public, and since we're all concerned about Mark, I'll post the following:


Dear friends and clients of =AZXQ3DWX8nymDq6LMijWZDtxB9Mv2ceUYuNvbOzW_qFVqTE3D RsTf3DFdcX3YXrYxu7xB_IZp0rbSddgILmHSaSr-K-og2TDruOT67EYoXYTF9AX2xMdB5qmp835zFVM4enCc8ZuN5p6l rPh-AElpJY6&__tn__=-]K-R]Mark Blanchard and Cats Meow Cat Sitting Services: Mark had a stroke and is in Nutley getting care. He's not well and he asked me to share the news. Anyone who is planning on his services in the near future, please find alternate cat sitting arrangements. We'll be visiting and will update as Mark sees fit to share.

There is a Go Fund Me in the link on that page.

Dan, thank you for the update on Mark and the info about the Go Fund Me. Here's offering prayers, and best wishes for Mark's recovery. All of us have been extremely concerned about Mark and any news, good or bad, is appreciated.
