Okay, okay. I need to address some specific issues:
Arthwollipot: You GOTTA go, dude! I used meeting you as leverage to get my husband to agree that at least I have to go this year. (It looks like maybe we can't bring the whole family, though.)
Articulett: Am I allowed to speculate on your use of the word "witness" in a post???
GeekGoddess, Gilmar, Luciana, and many others whose nicknames I didn't know them: I'm gonna be there! This time, on two legs!
To well-behaved skeptichicks with non-smoking and tolerance for women of a certain age: I will probably need a roommate. Be warned, though, I tend to get very drunk if I drink at all (no practice) so you might have to deal with me telling you what a GREAT roommate you are about 50 times the last night...
YAY!! Let's do it! Miss Kitt
