You were radiant in that dress! We should talk sewing at some point.. and do coffee at some point.. I would love to share stories!

Aww! Coffee is a worderful idea, but I'm carless in Redmond during weekdays, and home with the Wendling weeknights. The best time to catch me is weekend nights.

We could catch lunch.. I am car-enabled and work in Bellevue.. which isn't that far for the lunch type thingy. (and I can take long lunches if I want.. as I hardly ever take lunches in the first place)

Let me know!

Cool! Friday is best for me this week -- I get paid Thursday, and 1:00 is better than noon for ducking the crowds. Let's see: within walking distance of me are Typhoon (a reasonable Thai joint); Ooba's (cheap but surprisingly good Mexican); Victor's (indie coffee joint that serves sandwiches); and the usual innumerable teriyaki joints.

I'm sorry to have to do this, but I have to go to the doc's today for my evil cough from the con crud. I might have to get on the anti-biotics and such.

Can we re-schedule for a week?

Same time, same place, next week? Sure.
