Hey, Bay Area

[bryant]

I arrive at SFO at 6:30 PM on Tuesday, 3/10. A ride to aelfsciene's place would be vastly appreciated. I will also have Wednesday night in the area, and be flying out of SFO on Thursday morning. There are a billion people I'd like to see but I suspect I won't get to see all of 'em; apologies in advance. :(

This entry here is a good place to plan.

I'm probably way out of your way, and you'll eventually end up living out this way anyway, but, on the ride issue: I've no idea where aelfsciene's place is, however the range of public transit options from SFO is astounding. You can BART to CalTrain to give most of the peninsula and points south, BART gives you most of the east bay, the various airporters give you Marin, Sonoma and Napa.

[bryant]

Yeah, that's my fallback -- I lived out there for a while, and since the BART extension to SFO went in life's been pretty good. :)

If there is dinnering Wednesday night (or lunching Wednesday day), I'd love to see you! Email is tavella at gmail.com.

[bryant]

I will let you know if something firms up. :)

What time Thursday morning? If it's not too, too early, Teo and I can drop you off at the airport.

Also, may I offer you a meal Tuesday night? Any preferences/allergies?

[bryant]

Not sure when but I will let you know as soon as I know. And nope, no allergies. Preference... I dunno, surprise me!

[bryant]

Also: mind Gretchen and Brad company Tuesday night?

[tamago.livejournal.com]

Ow. Ow. Ow. <--- the sound of my arm being twisted.

Absolutely don't mind Gretchen and Brad. Angie's hitched herself to dinner, too, if you don't mind.

Where are headed from SFO? I can likely pick you up at the airport and drop you some place reasonable, if you still need the ride.

[bryant]

Down towards Mountain View -- is that reasonable for where you are?

[foxbat.livejournal.com]

It would be, but I'm an idiot and I forgot I have a prior obligation on Tuesday night. I'm going to have to withdraw the offer of a ride. Sorry about that, Bryant... my mind is getting too weak to hold my schedule in it, it appears.

[bryant]

No worries! I'm bummed, because it would have been nice to see you, but things happen. :)

[foxbat.livejournal.com]

Hang on; plans have changed! My coffee date is on Wednesday now, so I AM free to pick you up at SFO at 6:30 and I can bring you back down to Mountain View. Do you still need the ride? If so, can you send me flight info and your cell phone number in email to foxbat-at-gmail please?

[bryant]

I am good! I am taking advantage of my host because it seems simplest on the whole.

Benjamin and I could come get you at SFO on Tuesday if you still need a ride. That cuts into his bedtime a bit, depending on how long it takes to get back, but it's for a good cause. :)

Let me know the details about airline and flight #, etc, and we can arrange it.

[bryant]

I will take you up on that. PM me your email address or something?

[c-vista.livejournal.com]

Looks like you have your choice of people to pick you up. :) I'm happy to do it, still, just email me at cass (at) me (dot) com!

Yeah, hi, not really reading LJ, so I'm glad my neighbors mentioned this last night! I can come pick you up, too, since I'm still an unscheduled layabout, and just got some new music (go go gadget Amazon gift certificates) to keep me company on the drive up there; I don't want c_vista to inconvenience wee Benjamin if I can just do it instead.
