We need to start thinking of my upcoming absence, too.
On Friday, June 19, 2009, I have a rehearsal dinner
On Saturday, June 20, 2009, I have a wedding (mine, to Lauren) and reception.
On Sunday, June 21, 2009, I may be in a hotel for the morning and packing at night.
On Monday, June 22, 2009, I will be getting up at 3am EST to get ready to drive to the airport and catch a flight to Miami (at 7:40). Lauren and I will board Norwegian Sky and be there for four nights on a cruise to the Bahamas. The ship is scheduled to return to Miami on Friday the 26th, and we catch a flight at about 1:30pm back to Atlanta and drive home.
Basically, I'll be out of communications most of the time from Friday June 19 to Friday June 26th. On the ship, internet is $45 an hour or $7.50 for just ten minutes so I probably won't use it much, nor will I use my cell since it's international roaming.
During this time, we can find and excuse to remove Hanako from play (maybe a required training class or meeting) and Gallant and Lilly will run things together.
PS: I once bought a satellite system so I could post to Star Army from the Kuwaiti desert, but the upload was so bad I could only post a paragraph at a time, literally.
