Yes, I'm counting on that.

Heh... I've generally found that being Sent somewhere is a prelude to 
Something Good. So I'm not stressing.

Not when 300 teachers in Seattle were laid off...

'Fraid so. Or put off, at least. This is my last chance to go to DC for only 
the cost of the flight; the friend who lives there will be moving back to 
Cleveland soon, as she & her husband are wanting to start a family, and she 
wants to be near her mother when they do.

So, I go to DC this summer instead of Austin. :(

Maybe spring break of next year, though... that's a definite possibility for 
me, if it works for you all.

And it looks like "Prisoner of Azkaban" the movie will be seen in--get 
this--ENGLAND!  I have an invitation from a woman who's admin for 
gryffindortower.net (one of the "queens of H/G"--Imogen) to come visit her 
next summer for a PoA party. A whole *bunch* of us are apparently going. AND 
she teaches English, which means she & I are going to ditch everyone else 
for at least one day and toddle off to Stratford-upon-Avon. Woohoo!
