I think Billie and I have kinda settled on a location for our hangout - Metrotown near Superstore should be doable on the Skytrain, if I don't forget my bus pass that Sunday! I'll check 430 times closer to Nov. 14, of course!

Ugh, I have to set my alarm at 11 to get up tomorrow. Otherwise, I'll never get up on time OR have enough hours to catch up on stuff before I have to leave! Oh well. I guess I have to go to bed now, since I do want to get a semblance of enough sleep - the curse of the night person! :(

Trivia fact for Tuesday, Oct. 26: Which African countries merged to form Tanzania? Tanganyika and Zanzibar, in 1964.
