I have the day off, perhaps I'll spend some of it at the park.

OMG people! There are only 4 weeks and a few days left until the birthday! We better get a minute by minute plan down and no deviations allowed! GO GO GO!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I DO want to get a feel for what people want to do. I want to see Fantasmic, and that will be my first chance. If no one's into camping, I'm content to see it from the relatively low-wait Haunted Mansion side.

But I'd just as soon campout and save spots for people as have the usual 3-hour dinner somewhere in Downtown Disney (with an hour set aside for fuking up the check). ;)

If someone wants to camp for me, that's great. I have to work, so I can't get there super early. I'd love to see the dragon, and I'd love to meet Senor Powers, and I'm hoping I get to do both. Maybe I'll bring camping bribe munchies.

We're blocked.

Seems like a lot of trouble but if you say so.

0601 Wake up
0602 Decide that rather than just immediately showering so I can catch the 6:58 train I'll waste half an hour on the internet and catch the 7:28 train.
0630 Get in shower. Enjoy hot water until the 6:36 market opening report on KCBS.
0636 Lather and rinse.
0638 Shampoo and rinse.
0641 Exit shower and dry off.
0642 Brush teeth then a few minutes of internet for post-shower cool down.
0650 Get dressed
0702 Leave for BART station
0719 Arrive at BART station, find middle seat in last car of train
0728 Train departs Dublin BART station
0744 Train arrives at San Leandro BART station. At this point I will almost certainly get a seatmate, adjust myself accordingly.
0801 Train arrives at Embarcardero BART station. Depart train.
0805 Arrive at Mission & Fremont Noah's Bagels. Order peppercorn bagel, toasted, with a bit of mayonnaise and double Swiss cheese (I swear, it's good).
0808 Receive order, depart Noah's.
0811 Arrive at cubicle.
0812 Quickly scan emails and remind myself of appointments for day.
0815 Go throw away the empty soda bottle from yesterday.
0830 Daily work order call followed by actual work (and probably some internet surfing)
0930 Weekly migration status meeting followed by actual work or more likely other ad hoc meetings not currently scheduled. And more internet surfing.
1100 Run paperless exceptions review meeting.
1200 Find coworker to go get lunch with. Say "whenever, in a couple minutes" then take almost an hour before we are actually both free at the same time.
1254 Since it is a Friday, lunch will probably be at the San Francisco Fish Company in the Ferry Building. If weather is good we'll shoot the **** and eat sitting by the Bay and take slightly longer than we should.
1322 Return to office.
1330 Currently no scheduled meetings but the 1300-1500 time slot always ends up filled as people on the East Coast try to accomplish all the things they procrastinated before leaving for the weekend.
1530 Pack up and leave for gym.
1540 Arrive on treadmill or elliptical machine depending on mood.
1640 Depart treadmill or elliptical machine.
1642 Begin shower and change process. Leave gym still damp.
1702 Depart Embarcadero BART station.
1724 Arrive Bay Fair BART station. Enough people exit train for me to get a seat.
1744 Arrive Dublin BART station. Depart train, begin walk home.
1802 Arrive home, get caught up on internet.
1845 Check DVR speed through previous night's Daily Show and the pre-opening of the week's Craig Ferguson.
1945 Ask Lani if she wants to do anything. Be told she signed up for a raid.
1946 Sulk while complaining that there is absolutely nothing on TV to watch.
1948 Get over it. Watch something on Roku until I go to bed.

Hope that helps with the planning.

(Visible Alex Mojo Once More I Don't Know Why We Bother Anymore Cos Everything He Says Is A Cack - When He's Not Being Serious That Is)

I'm sorry, did you just call Alex a cack?

You'd better- we're gonna be there as well! LS- I might finally get to meet you for reals!!! (Happy dance.....)

:D

(And Pru, too!)

Aaaah, another Aussie Vs. USA phrase. I looked it up and understand your horror now. :D

In Australia, to cack oneself laughing (or just: "I cacked myself") means you found something very humourous. Things that aussies find terribly funny are therefore referred to as "A Cack"

ie: "I laughed myself to death last night, Dame Edna's such a cack."
or: "Watch this youtube video, it's a real cack."

Hope this explains it a bit better. :blush:
