Almost into Oklahoma. But if you're ever <I>Dallas</I>-way...<br /><br />Oh, and thanks for the virtual vacation.

I agree with your comment of the conversation going from zero to sixty in about oh-point-two seconds.

I heard ...Sarah, as long as "vegan" includes wine. I heard last night about a girl who was such a staunch vegetarian that she refused to eat tomatoes because they came off a vine. I don't really understand that. But I note that both grapes and hops come off vines as well, so I'm hoping that wine and beer are still OK.<br /><br />Phoenix: Where, generally, in Texas? Austin? I will likely have business trips to San Antonio and Houston in the near future (late May or early June).<br /><br />Aerin, I wasn't really worried about Robin since I actually know her from a different context as well (though we never met in person before). It was really Jane that had me worried... but I could never quite figure out why...<br /><br />FHH and Jane, can't wait until the next Minion Meet. I hope we can all attend, with many more, too! Maybe in 2011 we'll go down under to include McKoala, then perhaps Paris in 2012? Ha! Like I have budget for even ONE of those trips.PJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028687955957107957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-5085642003270693282009-04-24T12:36:00.000-07:002009-04-24T12:36:00.000-07:00You all look so much like, well, real people.

Heck, at least SF is closer than London.<br /><br />I'm glad you explained about the boys, because I wondered if it was more that you were worried Robin was an ax murderer (I still have some reservations) and didn't want her to take out the younger Dudleys....<br /><br />(word verification: snessesp)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-43482372718236050342009-04-24T09:54:00.000-07:002009-04-24T09:54:00.000-07:00That's hilarious!

I think I managed two pics on it.<br /><br />Next time (in SF or Vegas) I hope Maria makes it. I have to say I'm thinking Vegas would be fun. I have no wish to go anywhere near a casino but there seems to be loads to do and see nearby (I've been Google Earthing). Now to convince the Hubby's employer that sending him to Vegas next year is imperative to their business!JaneyVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04951739945670483199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-10705550889752490712009-04-24T09:47:00.000-07:002009-04-24T09:47:00.000-07:00I'm voting for Millenium in San Francisco.
