Hi everyone Just taking a minute out to say hi. Now, for anybody that hasn't heard yet. AWADtalk is having its first ever Wordapalooza get-together - a chance to meet everybody you've been talking with here on AWADtalk. Many thanks to Sparteye for starting the ball rolling on this one. In June of 2002 (week-end of the 22nd & 23rd*) we are all meeting in Lansing, Michigan for a week-end of fun and games. For those who do not know yet, I am putting together the WP yearbook. After WP, when we've had a chance to take pictures and all, it will be printed up like a real yearbook (thank you to my little brother on that one) with a copy for everyone attending. HOWEVER, (listen up Jackie sweetie), like every yearbook since time began, you have to fill in a bit of a survey to go with your picture. It is a fun survey, a little offbeat but hey, aren't we all anyway  ) So, if anybody is interested in coming drop me a private message. I try to pop into my mail box once a week to see if I have any notes. Let me know what your e-mail is and I'll send you more information subito-presto. Salut tout le monde! P.S. I really do miss you all. I wish this work streak would calm down but I'm not holding out much hope for a lull anythime before Christmas. Cross your fingers for me though. This Friday is salary review. I am asking for a hefty (and definitely merited) raise. Deux becs to everybody. * dates revised -thanks Sparteye, it's a good thing you caught that

This is very good news....the dates of the weekend. End of June would have been impossible.
Now, what is a good route from central Virginia to Michigan? I am a white-knuckle flier who holds planes up with her hands, a little known truth about how planes really fly by the grip upward bound of white knuckle fliers. Will drive instead because otherwise I'd have to be heavily medicated to survive a flight, and then no good for Scrabble.

Just thought I'd let people know that I am considering a camping tour around Lake Michigan for the week following Wordapalooza if anyone would be interested in forming part of a caravan, let me know. Three places I'd like to go for sure are North Shore Dunes(don't know if that's the actual name, but I know it's an actual place  ), hiking trail along the cliffs at Pictured Rocks near Munising, Mi.(camping at Canoe Lake and there are loons there), and Stone Circle. I'm talking primitive campsites and cooking over a campfire. Any good sites for this in Wisconsin, please let me know.

Are newbies welcome to this shindig? Of course by then..I won't be a newbie! I did want to take the time to thank you all for your wonderful welcomes. I hope my sense of humor hasn't put too many of you off. It's nice to be part of this wonderful group and I truly would love to come and meet the folks behind the names.

Yes, Angel. All who wish to attend, and who are prepared for an event akin to an international slumber party, are welcome.
In fact, I'll take your query as a good opportunity:
Anybody who hopes to attend and who is not already included on the Email list for Wordapalooza! organizational info should Email or PM me now, so that I can update my list. Please include your Email in your message to me.
