Jeff, thank you for stopping by on my thread!!! (((JEFF)))
LOL ... I read too fast and thought that you said overboard on ways TO meet, now I re-read and realize you said I was going overboard on giving him ways OUT of meeting!!!
I like your suggestion. Normally I would just let him simmer for however he needed, but I need to tell my friends "asap" (their words, not mine) whether I'll be seeing them on wed or friday...
