Arrived to Brenda's! And she already took me out for some really good food, so yay for that.

Looks like tomorrow I'll be heading downtown (if I got the directions and names right). I'll try to see both shrift and aurelia. If you have recommendations or if other buffistas would like to meet, do say. Specifically, say, where can one purchase Thermos and a Kindle.

If anyone would like to join me for a boat tour or a museum visit - any museum visit - we can plan so. Just let me know so we'll schedule.

Since I've got all day Saturday to schmooze, I'm up for anything: food, museums, shopping (I can window shop like a boss.) The only place I really want to make a stop at is a Lush store. Need to restock desperately.

Oh, wow. Yes, please. In NOLA smonster showed me the Lush store and for the first time I got to know what y'all are talking about in that secret Santa question, and I feel as if I'm ready to learn more about your world.

The boat tour I took was: [link]

For comparison, here is one of their competitors: [link]

Weather forecast for Saturday is "possible p.m. showers"

I've seen Kindles at Staples for prices pretty close to Amazon's. A Thermos you can find in most larger discount-y type stores: Target, Walmart, etc.

You can get a Thermos at most supermarkets, too.

I'm sorry, I can't think anything other than "I'm picking out a thermos for you /No ordinary thermos will do" now. Productivity for the rest of the day=gone.

I had lunch with Shir and now she's off to see aurelia.

Over lunch we figured out that there's a National Theatre Live of King Lear this Sunday at 11:30am: [link]

Does anyone want to join us?

Are there plans for the evening, or tomorrow? I have to squeeze in a bunch of work but will join whatever I can.

We have no cruise director making plans as far as I know.

We really should get one of those.

My plane to Chicago tonight is going to be at least half an hour late. ::sigh::

What's the best venue for everyone to get together tomorrow?
