Deb,
Shrewsbury is about an hour west-southwest of where I am. It's between Framingham and Worcester. It's about an hour west of Somerville, too.
What day of the week is your reading--a Thursday? I will see what I can do wrt getting a sitter, and getting there. I would be sick if you were that close, and I didn't get to see you for at least a little while.
No, no! Cindy, I'll be there on the phone only - NOT a visit. I'll be doing a conference call Q&A.
But inphoning shortly on another issue.
Oh--deb, I misunderstood too. I can't make it to the reading, but I was hoping you'd be around afterwards (and sent you an email to that effect). Le sigh, and I'm sorry I'll miss it.
Actually trying to arrange an event there - Boston or environs. Somerville?
Can someone ping me a list of the Boston locals, so I can send a grovelling email to all of you?
And Cindy, just left you a message. Will try again later.
Oh, shoot.
But inphoning shortly on another issue.
I'm around if you want to call, deb.
I'm home. The phone didn't ring, Deb. Weird.
Deb, I just checked my caller id. I don't think you left me a message. The last call I had was from my mother's cell phone, 3 hours ago.
I am going to email you my phone number again.
I got a voicemail, a man's voice, repeating the number (it checked with the one you sent me from last week), and I left a message.
Will await the new email.
Shit, my phone is dead. This happened the other day, too. Never mind. I have to call the phone company. Hrrrr. We've had more phone trouble since we moved into this house.
