Note to Nora: I am a yes, exactly that on your timetable. Have you thoughts on when we should arrive on Monday?
Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Re: Monday night, I think the time to arrive is between 7 and 7:30. Or later, if you like, but not earlier...

Does anyone else need directions to my place?
I've scratched Lilty off the dinner list so I have, for TUesday night, Tom, Nora, Nilly, Jon B., Ellen, Theodosia, Nutty, Jen, DXM, MattTBF, vwbug, Emily, and Frankenbuddha. 13 of us!

I have now edited this post three freaking times. I must need more coffee!!!
There IS a daily 10:20 train out of town, so I CAN make it for Tuesday dinner. I swear I am reading the schedule right this time, so if there's still room for me at dinner, I'd love to go!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Just letting everyone back east know that, barring any snags or screwups on the part of SuperShuttle or American Airlines (there had better not be - I do have a crossbow and I know how to use it), Nilly will be heading out of SF tomorrow morning at 8 a.m., so all you Boston folks, get ready.
And please ping me if any additional info is needed.
We had a fabulous party. I had a lovely moment on the driving tour last night, when I took everyone down to Baker Beach/Fort Point to get some pictures of Nilly in front of the miraculously fog-free Golden Gate Bridge, and I turned her around to see the San Francisco skyline, glimmering in the distance, no more than some high cloud, and she momentarily lost her English, and got it back enough to whisper "it's SO BEAUTIFUL!", so I turned Ripper around with the headlights on and got a picture of her with the City behind. I hope her flash works...
Off to ring Kristin, and dry hair, and begin organising for wine country run and getting Teppy, Laura and Jess to SFO tonight.

OK, Lilty, 14 for dinner.
Deb, I think Jon and I have it covered on this end (we have her itinerary) but if there are delays or what not, we'll be checking online both on the board and on the airline site (in case y'all are, like, at the airport and not on the board!)
Does anyone know- is Nilly checking bags? Trying to figure out if the best place to meet her is at baggage claim or try to get up to the gate (which can be a bit of a clusterfuck depending on which gate) I think we'll try for the gate, but have the baggage claim as a fall back plan, but we need to know if Nilly will be needing to go there in the first place!
Oy. I'm hungry and babbling.
Went to Trader Joe's and picked up kosher party snacks. Also, per Allyson's recommendation, kosher wheat pita bread for Nilly to nibble on.
Somervillians- we picked up 2 bottles of wine (one white and one red), 2 6-packs of beer and 2 six packs of Hansens diet soda. Feel free to bring along any other libation that you feel would be appropriate.
I think we have plenty o' snack food though (and, Theo, dairy free stuff).

Your directions said there's a liquor store fairly close to your and Tom's place, right Nora?

Nora, Nilly will most likely be checking bags. I don't think she could swing the two I saw as carry-ons.
