I am really not feeling well, so now I'm wondering if you'll beat me up if I don't come tonight. Dan & Aurelia can still come, and I'm sure Aurelia would love to play with Molly, but I'm not sure what's going on with me and think I should sit this one out and rest. :\

Does that work? I know you haven't met him, but you've barely met me so I'm assuming that it doesn't matter? :P
