Hey Buffalo, yeah Buffalo...

"Well assuming that the issues with The Cat get resolved (I've been whining in improbable_cars if you are wondering), I will be going to Toronto to visit Carol this weekend.
I'll be leaving around noon on Friday driving the 9-ish hours up, spending the weekend there then driving back Sunday. This should be interested as while I used to do this drive about once a month I haven't done it in some 3.5 years.
Before I head out I've got to pack and clean out The Cat. The clean-outis going to include anything remotely weapon-like, as I have a feeling going across the boder looking as weird as The Cat and I do is not going to be as simple as it once was. I'm guessing though that if I have any problems it will be on the return to the US.

I'm excited about the trip, but also really wishing the CD player in The Cat still worked, though I'm going to try tomorrow to find some interesting books on tape to pass the driving time."

Delighted.

"For those unaware of my/our history, Carol and i dated very seriously some years back then broke up and barely interacted with each other in the interveneing time. We got involved again at altpolycon9 back in October.
I'm going up to visit her this weekend and as I have not been to her place in years I asked her to send me directions.

She just forwarded me an (updated) copy of the original email directions she sent me the first time I ever came up. That email was sent the first time exactly 5 years and 2 days ago.

I'm utterly delighted in a way I can't quite define."
