I'm exhausted just reading it all, and that of course doesn't count all the little, one day things - the meetings and parties that will accompany the beginning of school, the everyday stuff. Autumn does this to me every year - it grabs me with its wonderful and drags me all over the place. It doesn't help that Halloween is just this insane time with children's activities, and that their birthdays are six weeks apart and on either side of it. The time between the beginning of school and Christmas is just one big blur.

That March/April week, by the way - the plan is for me to fly to Atlanta for the [livejournal.com profile] dezzikitty/[livejournal.com profile] jiggery_pokery nuptials at the same time that M takes the kids and flies out west to see his family. (Yes. I am making him fly from the east coast to the west coast by himself with the children. Yet another reason M should be the world's first atheist saint.) I'll join them after the wedding weekend for a day or two in Sacto, then drive up the Pacific coast through Oregon and Washington, ending up in Vancouver. It's a part of the continent I've never explored before and I am beside myself with excitement. I just want to DRIVE and SEE. Thoughts/recommendations/ideas? Stuff to read? Good city blogs?

That sounds like a whirlwind Autumn! Oooo I need to post about RenFaire *saw someone else's post up above*

Will you still be going to meet up Sunday? I wasn't sure how you were faring on your ankle =/ *hugs*

Definitely still up for Sunday, and I'm looking forward to talking to you. The ankle is mending - I won't be up for a lot of walking on Sunday, but I should at least be able to hobble in for lunch. :D
