Cleveland, Day 0

After arriving in Cleveland last night (Saturday), we dropped meinfs off with his hosts, then headed to dinner with our host Nick, Brian & Mark, apparentparadox, Walter and misc local friends. I ate far too much but I got off lucky: certain others drank far too much. Curse you, o pitchers of margueritas!

Everyone pleasantly bloated and/or buzzed, we settled in chez Brian & Mark for a viewing of "The Women" before many had to scurry off to bed.

Cleveland, Day 1

I was up early (8 AM... early for me on a weekend) and scurried over to Brian & Mark for a one hour massage session under Brian's tender care. My shoulders are still a mess but he did great work on them. Ahhhh...

With kent4str and cuyahogarvr vertical when I returned, we piled into the Power Princessmobile to pick up justetthon at the airport and deliver her to the convention hotel. I hear that Betsy Gotta arrives later tonight but have no information on the other calling staff.

In the early afternoon, we visited with cuyahogarvr's eldest two children and their significant others for a small lunch of grilled turkey burgers. The kids are well and Anna's wedding plans seem to be under control for next month.

The balance of the day has been largely spent working on DC Diamond Circulate 2009 data entry and web site stuff... I'm fully caught up but will resist generating full stats again until closer to the delegates' meeting on Thursday afternoon.
