Nora, are you going to let folks know what's up with Nilly's Boston adventure via the Somervillians list, or will something get posted here? I'm just asking because I'm pretty infrequent about checking that e-mail account, but will make more frequent checks on it if that's where the info will be.

(Still not here)

I've subscribed to the Somervillains list, the LAistas and the NYC ones, as well as the "yahoo" DC list. I'm also on deb's list for SF. I think that covers all the cities and way more e-mail groups than I have ever been a part of before in my life. This trip has already many new experiences.

(If I were here, I'd point towards my tagline to make sure you all know how I feel)

Nora -- I want to coordinate with you. Is your profile address best?

(I'm running off to work so I won't respond for a bit)

Nilly's so cute!

I'm counting on the Somervillains to keep me out *very* late the night Nilly is in town. I have a sleep-deprived EEG the next morning and have to stay up all night. So, let's plan something long and late. Oh, wait. You mean, it's not all about me?

Nora, I'm glad you're taking the lead on this.

Nilly! I emailed you!

And Frank, you read my mind. I'd just sent a Somervillians message out (in a pre-caffinated state - DANGER!), and was coming over here to X-post it...

Somervillians, and other people who live in the proximity of Somerville!

So, Nilly will be in Somerville. She'll be staying with me and Tom. However shall we entertain her?

She's arriving the afternoon of the 23rd, and is going to NY either the evening of the 24th or the morning of the 25th. So it looks like Monday night (the 23rd) is the night to do a getting to know Nilly thing - we can do it out and about, or we could have a gathering at our place.

Tom and I will be working on Tuesday the 24th, so anyone who's not, let Nilly know, to make some plans in that area?

And we can all play it by ear for the evening of the 24th, depending on when she's going to NY.

Just thought I'd try to get the organizational ball rolling...

Thoughts? Profile addy is good.

Jon, either profile or the other one at rainoftoads. I check them both all the time.

When are you going to be here?

Hec, I'll be in SF the 19 - 23 but requesting club info specifically for the evening of Thurs. 19th.

Nilly, if you're not-really-here again, could you let me know your flight info into Boston? I sent an email, but wanted to be sure to catch you... or if anyone else knows it, could you send it to my profile address?

Nicole, here's one alternative weekly's list of what's up for Thursday 8/19, and here is its guide to SF clubs, so you can get kind of an idea of what each club's about.

Hec could no doubt write you a 300-word essay on the history of each club, but he's shuffling around right now in search of coffee. I'll send him over here when he's awake.

here's one alternative

Thank you! I printed both lists and will check them out right now when I get home.

I'll send him over here when he's awake.

Pfftt! I'm not awake yet and I'm at work.
