Oct. 23rd, 2003 07:41 amGrrr. My FAA colleagues have finally rescheduled the aviation information management meeting with Defense and Homeland Security... for 11/20, in Washington, DC. The week before the Thanksgiving holiday, but that's James's birthday. Sigh.
patgreene is furious and wants me to quit. I *so* did not need this, this week.
Off to glue on a smiley-face and play host to 30 people at work, all day...

I was going to mention the same thing ... It's one day, maybe even a partial day, depending on the scheduling n such, maybe even less, if you can schedule to do the meeting by phone/video.
You can always do something with him before and/or after, plus at least your turkey day isn't shot ... in the meantime, perhaps have a present ready for him to open, and a phone call, on the big day, and then perhaps making somewhat of a party for him on Thanksgiving, while other people are there (or wherever you go for that day)
Just a thought, and yet another recipe for lemons ;-)
