Conference weekend

[42]

Wow, the power of Spriggan's spelling and grammer errors have grown. Be afraid!

[Spriggan]

Yes I can now alter reality with my bad spelling.

Okay, I've been talking with a few people, and Oct. 21 seems to be a good time to reschedule. Southwest is having a good sale right now, so I think I'll go for it, unless there's some major obstacle. I'm going to buy my ticket by Friday, so this is just fair warning. I'm really going to come out this time.  

[Chimera]

That seems fine to me. I checked the BYU calender, and there aren't any performances I need to go to. So I'll put it on my calendar and plan for it, if you decide to come. I hope you do.  

[Oldie Black Witch]

That weekend works for me.

I used the babysitter on Friday to go see Serenity with MsFish.  

[stacer]

Oh, good. I haven't seen it yet. I'm thinking perhaps I should see the show first. I did see The Exorcism of Emily Rose Thursday night, which was... okay. Typical Catholic possession story, combined with a Law and Order episode. Not worth the $9.50 I paid to see it, that's for sure. But the same night I got Howl's Moving Castle (the book), finally--I decided it was taking too long for my request at the library to come through. I'm only in the first chapter, but it was well worth buying.

[Oldie Black Witch]

Howl's Moving Castle is definately on my list of books to buy. I really enjoyed it.

Of course, the Miyazaki movie is on my wish list as well.

[Spriggan]

21st is great for me, that's during UVSC's fall break, got to love having days off from school so the teachers can have a break.

[Chimera]

We need to nail down a date. My friend is throwing a party on either the 21 or 22 of October, and if I let her know which night I have open soon she'll plan for that. If you are flying in on the 21, stacer, does that mean you want to have the TWG get-together that night? Or on Saturday the 22? If we could get a consensus, I would appreciate it. I want to be able to do both.

[stacer]

I don't know. What say ye all? Either Friday or Saturday work best for anyone?

[stacer]

So it's a very good thing I checked Southwest again today to be sure I had the dates right, because I realized that the sale ended today. So, whether I've heard back from some people yet--like Fiona, who I've decided I'll try to visit but won't plan my weekend around--I now will officially be there for the weekend of the 21st-24th. Because my brother has offered to give me a ride to/from the airport, I am flying in earlier and out later than I'd planned, so that he doesn't have to miss work. So I'll get there by 10:30ish Friday morning and leave about 5ish Monday evening. I think I'll bring some family history and spend Monday morning in the Family History Library or something.

Anyway, that's the official news. I have a plane ticket, I will be there. Officially.

[Oldie Black Witch]

Woo hoo!

Stacer, if you happen to need a ride, I work in Sandy and just bought a new car.  

[stacer]

Oo! I might take you up on that. I will probably do the Enterprise weekend special for a car rental, but that means I'd need to rent a car off-airport, so if you wouldn't mind giving me a ride from airport to Enterprise, I'd really appreciate it. Do you work during the day that day?

[Oldie Black Witch]

I do work on Friday and Monday. What time do you come in on Friday? I could see if I can work something out. They really don't care when I work, as long as I put in my 40 hours per week.
Otherwise, I can drop you off at the airport on Monday morning.
Either way, we can work something out.

[stacer]

See above--in about 10:30ish Friday, out about 5ish Monday. If you can arrange it and want to, I'd appreciate it; otherwise I can work out something else, no big deal.
