Rose and Faltered

Unfortunately, fellow ASSers, the wife and I will most likely not be attending the long-awaited Escalante boozing ceremony. We have been invited to a family Christmas affair that evening which we must attend, given it's a part of my family we never see (my family is, by the way, quite small, and the fact that there is a local chapter we hardly ever see is rather pathetic, I believe) and they have a new condo.

That said, maybe, just maybe, we will maintain enough of a social mood to arrive late and join donal and others who by then will most certainly have collapsed, hopelessly intoxicated, on top of one another in a fit of B-movie induced psychosis. A true ASSer, one might say, would come regardless of prior familial obligation. But then, this one won't be a true ASS, will it?

On this point, we shall ponder.
