wait, what ? is something happening saturday ? what's happening saturday ? where exactly did you say ?? why didn't you say anything about it ?
I tried to keep silent; but, now that the llama's out of the bag I'll tell all of you.

This Saturday, (that's tomorrow) about 20 of us are meeting at Euro Bistro in Herndon, Virginia (that's in the US) for the First Washington, DC Area MobileRead Meet-up. It starts at 5:00 pm (that's 17:00) and includes great food and drink. We have an area of the restaurant so more are always welcome. Nate will be bringing his collection of reading devices so clean hands only when touching them else Neko's and ZeeZee's llamas will see you in private. Everyone is invited.

that is an excellent point actually. and you may in fact be the first person to think of a compelling argument in favor of the rain. this will definitely complicate thinks for me when i am railing against the bad weather. now i'm not sure what to curse.

fingers crossed !!!

of course, since i live 4 floors above them, it will probably drown me in before them. then again in that case my problem would also be solved, because not very much would bother me anymore...

now if you're going to be letting the llamas out of the bbags at least try to keep them from spitting, sheesh. why do you think we put them in the bags to start with ?

i hope the area you've reserved in the restaurant is big, you'll need plenty of space for nate's collection. don't forget we all want a detailed recap when it's all over, for those of use who may not be able to go !
