And so it begins...

[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] arrived this morning. In particularly seredipitous fashion, she arrived the morning my alarm failed on me and I slept in, which means a) I could let her in and say hi and b) she stopped me being catastrophically late for work. Yay for the Bounce. :)

[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] are arriving some time this evening, and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] get back from their travels tomorrow morning. [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] are also arriving tomorrow, iirc, although they're not staying with us. ;) Thursday is the day a whole bunch o' people turn up - looks like we've got about 10 people staying with us that night.

Yep, it's Dexcon time. *grins*

The upshot of all this is I'm working today and tomorrow, and then I have about a week off, back next Thursday. My online time will be restricted to when I'm at work, pretty much, since I'll be being social. I'll try and pop onto the XP modlist if needed, but yeah, don't expect an online presences from me for the duration.

There will be, of course, scads of plots, ideas, logs, etc when I get back, having spent the weekend being creative. ;)

This has been a public service announcement on behalf of Rossi, who apparently should be running a B&B, according to her lawyer.

ahaha- yes, we get there tomorrow. You will know we've arrived safely when all of Toronto's retail stores scream in unison.

Or would you prefer us to just call at some point? Uhh. I have this wild notion that we're going to attempt to sleep that night but when has that ever happened? Maybe I'll let OtherLauren STUDY. Gasp.

Call us, or drop by the pub in the evening.

Day pass for Wednesday. Got it. *makes note*

THERE IS NO BREAK. ONLY MORE SHOPPING. *grin* Maybe I can convince her to come for a drink after we have dinner, introduce her to the group sloooowly, give her time to swallow the Aussie, Southern, Canadian and Russian accents all playing together.

Look, I'm being a good host!

(And because I'm just making sure, we only have buses in Winnipeg; day passes are good for pretty much anything in Toronto with wheels? Y/n?)

Daypass will be good for the whole TTC; subway, streetcar, and buses.

I can totally come for a drink or shopping. I"m trying to decide between buying a second pair of jeans tomorrow so that I actually OWN two pairs of pants again (don't ask) and doing the art gallery - the bonus of buying them here is that I can claim back the tax at the airport, so that should cancel out the 10% extra I have to factor in for the exchange rate.
