Update Pilot Watch/Book Club

I deeply apologize for the delay. I came home very excited to do it after a productive day of work, but then I walked into cat poop in the apartment which turned into a full clean of the litter box and then the bathroom.

I know I'll be fine for Movie Night, but I don't want to commit to Pilot Watch and then need to tap out. I will also know about the Book Club date for The Obelisk Gate by Friday.
