Where? Caribou Coffee at the corner of 18th and M Streets, NW
When? Friday evenings from 6-8 (or later if people want to stick around, they're open until 10)
Directions? Two blocks north of the Farragut North metro, two blocks south of the Dupont Metro (south exit).
We thought this would be convenient for those of us who work and/or live around Dupont Circle or Farragut. I won't be there this first week, but Erin will be so you can look for her. They have WiFi and plenty of tables so it should be a good place to write.
Hope to see some of you there!
Tricoteuse (Gretchen) and eskelly (Erin)

Dupont/Farragut is pretty convenient for me, I'd definitely be interested in doing a write-in there. ^.^

This sounds great! I'm just at 20th and Penn, so I'll be hoping to make it out to a couple of these! There're also lots of lunch write ins in this area too :)

Ohh this is perfect. May not make it this week since I have the GRE on Saturday morning, but I'll try! The rest of the month should be golden.

Actually ... I won't be there this Friday, either. I have class on my husband's birthday, so we're going out for dinner on Friday :(
But I will see all of you there next Friday!

Good luck with the GRE! I think the worst part for me was feeling like I had to go to the bathroom throughout the whole second half just because I couldn't.

Ooh, yea, going to the bathroom beforehand is the best advice I've been given so far!

Hi, everybody - @valerierose mentioned in another thread that this write-in is not on the calendar for 11/27, probably due to the holiday.
I will be around on the 27th and would be happy to do Caribou Coffee that day, even though I am off from work, if anyone else is interested in joining me. Maybe even an super write-in to get even more writing done during the last weekend push, if folks have the time.
(My mom cancelled Thanksgiving this year b/c she's going to FL for a cousin's wedding, so we have no plans ... which is fine by us.)

eskelly, I'll be around on 11/27 as well, and will be interested in meeting. We can make it an unofficial write-in, even if it's not on the calendar.

I don't know if anyone made it to Caribou last week, but I'll definitely be there tomorrow so hopefully some folks will be able to join me.

I'll be there tomorrow. Actually, I might be there earlier tomorrow, around 5pm if anyone else is going to show up that early. Does anyone go there any day other than Friday?

Jen, I will probably be there earlier since I finish work @ 5 (whenever possible) and I am only two blocks away.
I will be wearing a black & grey plaid pattern wool coat with an empire waist.

Sounds good to me. I'll be there with a black Acer laptop and will be wearing a red leather jacket. (Probably also drenched in water with the way this weather is going today.)
Anyone else feel like this is similar to a personals ad? (Brown hair, brown eyes, scar on right hand, etc) =D

Yes, it does! I should have also mentioned that I have a small, white Asus 3-E netbook with a NaNo Sticker on it.

I have to work late tonight, so I will swing by around 8 pm to see if anyone is still there ... or if anyone that can't make it earlier and wants a later write-in with me? I'm going to write until they kick me out!
