There could perhaps be some way my husband can take my son to his Dr's appt and I could leave Fri. I'd just feel extremely guilty at missing his appt, though. I feel guilty for even thinking of leaving the both of them anyways.

Meh.

That I can understand, Jaz. But how long has it been since you honestly had a little "me time" trip? One where you will be with friends who want to embrace you and allow you to let your hair down and return to your two guys refreshed and rejuvenated, ready to support them as you always do, but with a lightened heart and eased stress level?

What Menolly said re maternal guilt. Baby Batty would cry whenever I turned on the shower (she slept in the next room). I mentioned it to my sister-in-law, who had two kids. "What can I do? I can't even take a shower!" I said. And she said, sort of half joking, "Turn up the water?"

I thought it was kind of horrible at the time, but after I had my second kid, I totally understood.

Anyway, you could think of it as male bonding time for your son and his dad....

it will be coming with us. i have an acoustic, a broken electric, a working electric and a casio keyboard. none of which i play all that well.

the acoustic belonged to julie's father. i will be breaking it out this week to see ho wout of tune it is.

Bring guitars, bring lots. and yes, Lucimay will be REQUIRED by me to sing. I LOVE LOVE LOVE her voice and style, it's deep with great range and sultry and husky and divine. She is off the hook amazing and her guitar ain't bad neither.

Menolly and Savor, adding you to the thursday list...

I'll be staying until the 17th of June, leaving at 6am. I'd like to see some of the area, such as the Grand Canyon.

Hello all. Would love to attend Elohimfest, as I live 3 hours away. Can anyone please tell me the time and address to be? As I'm unable to afford a hotel, I'll be driving back afterwards and need to plan times. Thank you.

Right IO, if you want to come earlier, like Sat afternoon to the High Tea, or stop in at my house before hand PM me for my # and address. Or simply show up at The Cooperage at 6 and join us, if you want to stay and party with us afterwords you can always bring a sleeping bag and crash on my one of my couches, or the floor...or, you can start the long drive back at 9---or whatever.

It is Saturday the 11th, though, right? Not the 10th...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!!

I'm mostly excited I'm not taking a damn cruise again.

Post by **danlo** » Wed May 11, 2011 7:02 pm

Yes it's the 11th--leave it to lurch to...

So, I'm double posting here to let you know that I just commissioned the plaque and it should be done within 7-10 days--it'll be black with a silvery cracked background and the outline and lettering will be the same gold as the LFB one (that's the way they have to do it). The title type will be the exact same type as on the paperback version of The Real Story (and the Gap Cycle ppb titles are in gold anyway, so.....

)

To E-fest vets, friends and others who may have my old cell #---that is NOT a good one-PM me for my new cell, please (landline is still the same).

Post by **aliantha** » Thu May 12, 2011 12:27 pm

The plaque sounds wonderful!

lurch, I hope you haven't stocked up on extra Depends yet.

I spoke to my friend last night. Turns out she's planning to drive to Albuquerque and pick me up Sunday, and then we'll head for the Grand Canyon.

Can't wait for this trip!

Post by **danlo** » Thu May 12, 2011 2:24 pm

IO is now a definite-I've added him and RoomtoGrow to the list--everyone please check the list in the first post to make sure you're on it. Not sure about Dhukka...I'll have to PM him...I'll, sorry, knock drew off the list...

Post by **rdhopeca** » Thu May 12, 2011 3:53 pm

Arrive Saturday June 11th 6pm at the dinner
Depart Sunday June 12th Noon

Quick trip, best I could do under the circumstances...

I must send my regrets as I will not be able to make it after all. Danlo, you can take my name off the list. Something about too many plates in the air.

I had planned to drive in (2 days each way), get there Friday afternoon and stay a few extra days past the 'Fest to visit Taos and Santa Fe, but turns out I really don't have the time to spare due to other commitments. Not even if I chop out the Taos/Santa Fe leg. Sounds like a great time will be had by all. Sorry I'm gonna miss meeting SRD and everybody from the Watch. I expect drinking stories...

Post by **danlo** » Fri May 13, 2011 3:43 am

That's too bad, I was really looking forward to meeting you--hopefully you can join us at E-Fest 4 after The Last Dark comes out...

one thing i love about traveling is newspapers. whether large metropolitan papers or small-town local papers.

i also collect lapel pins and i am looking forward to a few on this trip.
