Plans are becoming clearer. It appears I will be driving to New York but I now expect to be starting out on Sunday the 30th. So I will probably be able to make at least an appearance on the 29th although I may have to depart early.

I’ll be there tomorrow. And in case any of you read my most recent thread, I’m bringing a friend that won’t let me get too teary or beery. 🙂

I told her of this MB, but she’s still lurking, sporadically. Maybe we’ll get to recruit her!

Lookin’ forward to it.

I’ve never actually been to Floyd’s, so it’ll be new to all of us (except, perhaps, starfish(?)). Anyway, I made a sign (SDMB) and I might run a little late as I’m getting my Mom out of the hospital @ ~2:30 and I’ve got to get her settled at her home. Big Sis flew in and will attend to her after touchdown, so I’m not just feeding granny to the rollaway bed and running away.

So, I’ll see several of y’all tomorrow, Just look for the old fart with a devilish gleam in his eye and an SDMB sign.

Irishman,

We’ll be staying up late enough for Sealemon to arrive and the next (zyada) weekend we’ll be staying up late enough to be silly.

Well, I’ll be there with bells on. Carl is coming (y’all get to meet the light of my life!) and my best friend Livia invited herself, too. 🙂

I would’ve gotten away with it, too, if it weren’t for those meddling kids!

I might be a little late, guys. I have a terrible headache that hurts when I stand up.
