Wow. *staring like a kid on Christmas morning*
I might actually go to some of the Write-In's this year. You guys are actually making me want to be PART of my region's WI's and not be a little hermit crab instead like I was last year.
WhoawhoawhoaWHOA. Did I just see GILLIE'S on there?! *fangirl squee*
----------M'kay. It's official. I love you guys. Gillies is one of my favorite places. I ALWAYS go there after concert's and stuff. It's like a tradition for me.

I'm kinda lookin' forward to meetin' y'all too. Which is rare. I generally FEAR meeting new people.
(And y'all are makin' me blush with that talk lol. And making my ego HUGE.)

I am so psyched about this year's write-in schedule. There's only a couple I won't be able to make because of school (BOO). I'm going to make an effort to hit all of them this year and not slack off towards the end like I did last year. :) Which means I better get the ball rolling on a decent homework schedule now. Ick.

I'm so excited! Since I commute from Lansing to Fenton, when I come home in the evenings, I'll be hitting Grand Blanc RIGHT AT 6pm -- which is PERFECT for Friday write ins! I may miss one early in the month because I have to go to a Conference, but other than that, I don't see any reason why I can't be there.
(I think I convinced my husband to think of November as a month where I have to get a second job to reach my dreams... so maybe he won't mind me not cooking dinner those nights!)

Well, I've already proclaimed my absolute LOVE for you guys and the schedule, so we're good there.
----------My BFF, Anubis_S_Jakkaru, and I are trying to work out a way to make it to as many of them as we possibly can, and we're attempting to find a way to talk her fiance into joining us as well. He doesn't think his writing is that good, but I've seen it, it's amazing. So hopefully along with getting the gift that is me (I'm a conceited brat at time, I admit it), you will all hopefully also be getting the joy that is my non-biological-younger-then-me big brother!

My son and I will try to make it to most of them, thought transportation issues may limit some... my ride is the bus and my ex, and he often works LOL Luckily, Panera and Border's are both easily accessible by bus :D

I want and will try to make it - Fridays are rough just because I don't know what each week brings until the football team goes onto the the next round in playoffs. (I cover high school sports). And Sundays - job number two.
I will try.
I will try.

I've been out of the game a bit the past couple years, but this year I think I'm going to try and make a couple Fridays (Panera is like five minutes away from me) because I'm pretty inspired this year. Did start a bit late, though.
Hope to see some of you next week if I can make it =]
