I shall be there! Just maybe a little late. I wish Fox Drive would just get over it and be done with all the construction already.

This is actually rather convenient for me. I'm already halfway there for school on Tuesdays!

Once I see my schedule (possibly tomorrow), I'll know for sure, but if I don't work I will so be there. It's just across the street from my place, so I have no excuses. Unfortunately, if I do work in the morning, I'll be a bit late as I probably won't be off until 5.

Ohh, I so wish I could, but I have my dance exams that day and then my ballet class that evening so I don't think I'll make it! Ah well, maybe the next one.

Being vague is almost as fun as doing this other thing...

Unfortunately I don't think I can make this one. It's a bit of a trek from Sherwood Park :) that and I don't get home until about 5:30 and then I have to do the mom thing until 7:30ish.

I'm pretty sure I'm coming. I'm off that day, but I just have to find out if anything else is going on.
I couldn't make the kick-off events again this year, so I'm really hoping that I can come to some other write-ins and such :)

Ok, I can definitely make it, but I'm trying to negotiate getting off earlier. At the moment, I might not get off until 6. I'm going to try to negotiate to get off at 5 if not earlier.

EDIT: Ok, I will be able to get off at 5, if not sooner. My manager really didn't care all that much. So I will be a bit late.

Wow go Lois Hole Library! I actually only live like... 7 blocks from it.
I *think* I can come. I'm in my shcool play and next week is production week (go figure) and we have dress rehersal monday night and our first evening performance wensday night... so, assuming I get most of my homework done and that my director is nice and decides to let us have the afternoon off, I will be there!

As it turns out, my mom is in town and staying at the Fantasyland Hotel while her husband's at a convention this week. Nicole and I can drop off the kids with her and both come. Of course, we'll need to grab supper somewhere nearby...

That said, we only have one laptop between us. Will there be public-access computers nearby with USB ports for the otherwise challenged to use?

I SHALL BE THERE! I'll actually be there early, seeing as I'm just taking the bus directly from school.

QUESTION: Can my friend (Coolcatoddball, who will also be there but is not too forum-savvy) and I be "sorted" at this event?

I shall probably show up! I only have one class on Tuesdays, and it is finished at 11am, so in all likelihood I will be sick of doing homework by 4pm. :3 See you all there!

There will be sorting available! There are computers in the library, but they aren't particularly nearby and you only get an hour on them. I recommend handwriting then transcribing, personally! Or begging a laptop off someone else.

I will make my most concerted effort to attend, as I live very nearby and could use some bolstering from fellow writers, this being my first ever Wrimo... depending on a sitter!

Change of events. Shall be attending this one.

There will be a Curling Rocks Band party here and I assume it will be far too loud to properly concentrate. Off to the west end I go!

See you all tonight!

This is hilarious. I had no idea that there were actually real people involved with this nanowrimo thing. I thought it was like Second Life or World of Warcraft and the novels were all virtual-the metaphors...metaphorical? I won't be able to attend this ferocious word joust but hopefully I'll get to come out soon and become proud of my fellow ninjas. Seriously, you are real?
Thank you for being real.

Nope, only those that go to events are real. The rest of us are all virtual figments of your imagination :p lol
