Reply #1: It will depend on my husband being able to or willing to take a day off

to care for the kids so that I can go. The other thing nagging me is going to a large city by myself that I am unfamilar with. I'm a little nervous about that, but perhaps that's minor, and you or other Mass people have some advice on where to go, transportation, etc. I really don't want to drive (I believe my husband's comment when driving out of Logan airport in 2000 was, this place is more f***ed up than Paris, a dubious honor I suppose), because it's a bit confusing. So, there is my wimpy side, but I think I can work through that. It's more the vacation time for my husband that will be the issue.

It would be great to meet the Senator, but equally so, wonderful to meet as many of you bloggers as possible. We could also brainstorm and compare notes and all that great stuff. So, yeah, I want to go. Just a few obstacles to overcome.

It's 12/11, right? :)
