Sangria awaits!

I get to stay out and play later since I don't have the hour-plus drive home tonight. But I do still have an oh-dark-forty-five flight in the morning.

With any luck we'll still be grazing when you get there! Check your PM!

Perfect, the bars close at 4am, swing by Jim's for a polish sausage and a bone-in pork chop, jump on the Kennedy, and you're going through security at Terminal 1 by 5:15.

Unfortunately, I'll have to leave you two ladies to your own devices after about 11, as I have a teleconference from 9am-noon where I should be marginally coherent (since I'm running it).

I think that's an EXCELLENT idea! I would so join but I have to clear up my desk tomorrow for my trip. Why not we plan a bar hopping trip one of these days

Why would I want to be clearing security by 5:15???? Somewhere between 5:45-6:00 would be just fine...leaves me with just enough time to cruise through the RCC for a cup of coffee on my way to the gate!

Well, I thought you'd want to switch into clothes without six or seven hours of cigarette smoke embedded in them!

I might be over at the restaurant as early as 6:15, depends on when I get a response to a particular email that needs to go out tonight.

Hadn't even thought of it! What I've been having trouble deciding each afternoon is Pina colada, strawberry colada, guava colada or just stick with the mai tais!

Thursday was a fantastic time -- thanks to all who were there, and to blort for letting us know he apparently did find a kangaroo's pouch to ride around in (and we don't really want any more detail than you gave us ).

I'll have photos uploaded hopefully sometime this week, otherwise when I get back from SIN -- PM me your e-mail addresses if you want a link since "what happened in 1492 stays in 1492"

Why limit yourself to just one? You know what they say about variety...

Promises, promises. And for that, you didn't get to have your picture taken. Of course, you might consider that a good thing.
