"I'll see you at Casinorama tomorrow."

You will? OK, I guess you'll have my plane ticket waiting for me at the airport...you'd best lay off the wacky tobaccy!!! I'm only 3000 miles away in pluvial NY!

"I meant to put in terms I wouldn't have to live with."

The heck with the preposition- that was yet another qualifying remark. But...I forgive you. That is, as long as you make good on the shrimp cocktail this time rather than coming up with a rather lame (pun intended) excuse.
