What does, "I'll be there at 8:30" mean to you?

I'll give you the answer when I find out.

Dave raises an excellent point (see the comments).

"I'll be in on Friday" means "I won't be there, I won't email or call you to let you know when I'll really be there. Don't hold your breath." That would be Alison.

"I'll be there at 8:30" means "I'll be there at 10:15, so you'd better keep an eye on my experiments for me and adjust your schedule to accomodate my own even more than you're already doing." That would be Jose (Joey).

In other news, Clay brought a little additional joy to my life this morning.

Can I get a hallelujah? Hallelujah!

The REU program this year has added a new feature! That's right, this summer, the students are expected to write a proposal for their projects - at the beginning of the program. Yes, that's right, a proposal needs to be written starting soon, due July 1. Guess who needs to help out with the extra work?

That would be Yours Truly, your friendly neighborhood Primary Supervisor.

Me.

Oy.

hmmm... Thomas, Allison, or Jose?

If it's Jose, I'm sooooo sorry. You really don't need another one.

Honey, he's only one of many :-)

So, I found a man for you. Is four hours too far to drive for a blind date? ;-)

[bramey.livejournal.com]

I don't think so. I'm certainly worth the drive. Come on down! Dave and will be happy to host the both of you!

I'll stay at Dave's but poor James will have to sleep in the car. ;-)

[bramey.livejournal.com]

I'm biting my tongue, here.

Wait a minute, I'm an adult.

James is an adult.

I have a futon.

James can sleep there. Yes, yes he can.

Or YOU TWO can sleep at Dave's place and Dave can sleep at my place. WHATEVER.

Or we can all have a big orgiastic meet in my living room.

Sheesh. Just come visit for christ's sake. *mutter*

"Icky girl parts!"

[bramey.livejournal.com]

Yes, Dallas. That's right.

[ashfault76.livejournal.com]

no, no big ogriastic meets anywhere!!! ewwww!!!

B and I figured it out over lunch: D&J drive here. We have a nice lovely double-date somewhere with lots of alcohol and get cabs to take us to our respective "sleeping" places (sleeping in quotes because we all know there won't be much of that going on). B&J stay at B's. D&D stay at D's.

There, it's settled.
Now we just pick a weekend (the next three are totally booked for me, sorry)

Am I the only grown-up in the group? Do I need to privatize this post? My mother is going to be appalled! Or will it be my father who is the more appalled?

Let's not give me a reputation I haven't earned, please. Thank you.
