I've been told you can take the "Mark" (sp?) Train

MARC. I'm sure it stands for something. And you can, but I don't know details offhand.

Cicadas very minor at my house (yay having pine trees) but I'm not going into the woods behind the house. I got hit in the fact with one while talking yesterday; entirely too close a call.

There's already been one cicada-related hospitalization. Guy decided to try out some of the recipes, ate about 30 cicadas. Discovered that he's allergic to them.

.but "Kristin T" gives me bad elementary school flashbacks.

ha! I once was in a class with THREE Stephanies, so we were Stephanie F, Stephanie J, and Stephanie M.

Hey Vortex! Are you coordinating the airport stuff? I don't mind taking transport, or a cab. I'm just trying to avoid renting a car for a change. It looks like we will be arriving Dulles at 6:30 on Friday. I haven't actually made reservations yet, but it is looking like we are going to be able to make a quick escape. I may even just pop up Saturday morning and leave Sunday, but I would like to at least get 2 nights.

I think you got my cell phone numbers, etc previously. I'll send again just in case.

YAY for the Holts attending the F2F!

Anne, do I need to send you flight info, or did I already do that?

I do need your flight info. Did I forward my phone number to you? Also, since you're getting in late, let me know if you want me to reserve a burger or two for you.

Question re. Friday get-togethers: About what time do people think they're going to meet for Friday activities?

About what time do people think they're going to meet for Friday activities?

I think that's gonna somewhat depend on the Thursday night festivities.

I do need your flight info. Did I forward my phone number to you?

I'll send flight info today. Profile addy good? And you can send your number to my profile addy - skozma (at) pacbell (dot) net.

Also, since you're getting in late, let me know if you want me to reserve a burger or two for you.

Yes please! A couple of burgers will just the thing upon arrival at your house. I'm so excited to see your house in person!

A house is not a person. Does not compute....does not compute....

Shatner wins again.

I get in Friday morning at 10:30am, so I'm hoping that I can drop my bags at the hotel (check-in isn't until 3 -- blech) then catch up with them as has thrown off the hangover and are moving about.

The cicada-eating guy got his just desserts, says me.
