    I allegedly land at 3:30 p.m. Thursday. I'll believe it when the wheels touch down.

    My wife has a cousin there we're staying with Monday-Wednesday.
    Turns out she works right across the street from our hotel.

    No, lono, WE allegedly land at 3:30.

    You all are way more adventurous than me. Here are my plans:

    Thursday:
    3:30 p.m. land, get settled in.
    Dinner and drink, whenever wherever.

    Friday:
    Sleep until whenever (not wherever!)
    lunch
    Start drinking
    Baseball game
    Resume drinking

    Saturday:
    Sleep until whenever (not wherever!)
    Tattoo
    Baseball game and/or house party
    Drinking until whenever

    Sunday:
    Sleep until whenever (still not wherever)
    check out
    shop
    Dinner with any stragglers
    Fly out

    This is a very similar schedule to what I'm looking to do so I might be annoying ( :D ) and tag along with ya for much of it. I really want to do the ferry and the one you linked to looks good.

    My only wrinkle would be for the Space Needle, it might be best to play it by ear and see what day will have better weather and allow us a better view.

    You sure you all want to hike Mt. Rainier?

    Well, you're in luck because I've already met you and I know what kind of an asshole you are! The rest of the riff-raff, I'm not too sure about ... :D

    (Of course, I don't know what that says about me ...)

    Do stuff I wanna do. Times TBA.

    Ditto.

    But, I really wanna go on the ferry. And, I'm planning on going on hiking. I reserve the right to back out of it pending Thursday night's plans, though. Sorry joe -- I'll try. ;) Beers are on the line.

    Addendum to my plans:

    I will be involved in anything tattoo-related, and I'll join whoever goes to the EMP, likely Friday.

    EMAIL'S OUT

    I just sent out the phone list and/or party directions. If you think you should have gotten it and didn't (about five people sent their contact info but not email address), or just want directions, let me know.

    Also, here's a section of the email about my plans for Thursday. I don't have the wardrobe or patience for the Vessel crowd, and I don't dance, but hopefully those who have those destinations can stop by before or after, and everybody else who wants to can come hang out.

    THURSDAY NIGHT

    I don't know what others have planned, but I'm going to be hanging out at Shorty's from about 7 p.m. (http://www.shortydog.com/) It's a cool, laid-back place close to the hotel, and I figure people can meet and greet there, the clubbers can use it as a prefunk departure point, whatever. If I know the SJ demographic at all, it's a good fit. It has 20 pinball machines, chili dogs and plenty of cool (occasionally some hipster faux cool sneaks in, but mostly actual cool). Plus the address is 2222 2nd Ave -- what could be easier to find than that?

    Awesome.

    Got the e-mail, AB. Thanks again. You rule. :D

    Ditto what Buck said. AB is kicking ass on this, as did our wonderful hosts.
