Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

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.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

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?

Shir isn't familiar with Chicago, and I think she was hoping people would chime in with things they'd like to do, like the Art Institute or a boat tour etc.

Do we want to do The Chicago Diner tomorrow?

I just need a place to rendevouz. I'll be driving down from Madison. I plan to leave 8ish, which will bring me into Chicago between 10:30-11 depending on traffic.

Okay, how about this: 11am brunch at the Halsted Chicago Diner, plans for the day to be determined over food.

...pending agreement from Shir.

Awesome. Directions look pretty straight forward. As long as parking isn't too hard to find!
