In reply to u can bump me up on the list, posted by rainbowbrite on May 25, 2005, at 13:07:24
Hello! I would love to join all of you! But I can only come for one day, so which one would be better? I don't know the plans, so could you please babble mail the info? I told my DH and he said he and the kids could visit the museams while I do this but we need to be done in order to get on the last South Shore train to South Bend, IN. Can anyone help! Thanks!

I was thinking I might be able to spend the night if I could find a room mate to share the costs of the hotel room. Our hot water heater just went out and it was over $500 bucks to fix, so I am running short on cash. Anybody? I promise, I am mostly normal, lol I only do bizare things in my sleep! just kidding! lol really!

Ouch, guess I haven't reached that mythical state of completeness yet, I had another spasm that forced me to post hostel info.
These of course aren't as convenient as the hotels mentioned. Found awhile ago, don't know if the info is current. But there are lots of details available on the web. (FYI Happyflower, these can be shared, but don't know if you have to provide your own roommate, or if you're comfortable letting them provide one if they will). The lines looked like they might run together in this post, in case something seems to be missing.

Yep. He was full of cautions, but simultaneously approved.

I'm guessing that if you come during the day, the day of the 4th would be best. The activities on the 3rd will be in the evening.

Oh drat. I don't want to be vulgar by saying their name.

> C'mon Spoc. We're not scary. In fact, we're all scared!
Oh heck, put me on the Yes list. I'm sure at least one thing will work out. And I am thinking Friday could indeed be it. Nah, you kids aren't scary. I have only held out because for some strange reason I can barely commit to even my fa-vo-rite activities in the whole world if it's firm and in advance (boy, would my friends and family back that up! I'm surprised they still are my friends and family). Get anxious after I do, NOT about possibly not wanting to go but because I spontaneously and unexpectedly wake up feeling physically crummy not infrequently.
Ok, enough of that, let's par-TAY. Keep in mind, though not many here have had the indescribable pleasure of experiencing it, despite my compulsion to post reams of dry data at times I AM a hoot. Well, I ain't anything conjured by "spoc," anyway. ;-)
Speaking of names Dinah, at least you have a normal human one for people to call you by during the party! But I do enjoy the thought of these other names being yelled out to get each other's attention in loud public places.

I'm in!
I'll be driving in Friday after working in the morning, so I'll try my best to not get lost or get stuck in too much traffic in order to make it to the restaraunt.
:D

Does this mean I'm waiting for another babblemail? If so, I haven't received anything, yet.
Thanks,

You didn't answer if you were anxious. Is that none of our business?

Sorry about the repetition of this post, but I seem to have unofficially started keeping the head count, and this is the easiest way for me to keep track.

>Yeah, hey, what gives! Get that woman on the horn! Doesn't her new man even have a bike (hopefully that was "motorbike," but either way, no excuses! They're young and strong, they can pedal here! And if I remember right she has a beast of a car too)? I can see it now, kicking up the dust as she and her true love motor out of the Indiana corn fields on a Harley bound for Chi Town; a long scarf draped over her hair and trailing off into the wind behind her; big black movie star sunglasses; elbow-length silk gloves and a red dress; cigarette holder and champagne glass in hand (well ok, half-empty bottle of gin)...
