DCFOLK

the word is, there will be no preliminary round for the men's worlds the week i'm there -- which, in terms that will be useful to the non-curlers, means i will not be called upon to officiate and will therefore be bound to the curling club for less time than i might otherwise have been.

i will want to get a couple of games, natch, but my thursday (december 15, evening)* and saturday (december 17, daytime) appear to be unscheduled and not likely to get scheduled anytime soon.  i'll only be auto-mobile to the extent that [livejournal.com profile] datlowen lets me borrow his car, but hey!  wer möchte aushangen?  (hmm.  i'd better do a quick google and make sure aushangen isn't a genuine and totally obscene word in german.)  (extra-parenthetical remark:  how is it okay that wer means 'who' and wo means 'where'?  who decided that was a good idea?  [wanders off grumbling about false cognates])

*actually wednesday 14th in the daytime, thursday 15th all day, and friday 16th in the daytime as well, now that i think about it.  and, sunday 18th, who wants to have brunch someplace lovely and brunchie?  [bats eyelashes at fox-is-in-town brunch crowd]

Maybe we can shop while he's DMVing, and then have lunch with him and shop some more?

A cunning plan... and Fox to answer your question from earlier... I chose Springfield DMV because it is the one I can get to without a car. :-)
