Timelies all!
Happy New Year!
I'm not sure why it took me a week to get back here. It's not like I was out of town or anything.
Work has been stressful this week. Two people in the lab were out Monday. One came back Tuesday and Wednesday, but only because a third person was out those days. We were very busy Monday and Tuesday, not so much yesterday.(Also, I got to leave 3 hours early.)
I registered for Sat./Sun. and plan to stay at the hotel Friday and Saturday nights. So, I'll be there Friday night, but I won't be doing the reception or puzzles-for-fun that night. I hope what I'm doing Friday night is having dinner with some of you people!
Same! Also, for anyone thinking of joining, it looks like several of us are at the Stamford Hotel rather than the Marriott.
Hey, has anyone here gone on an Amtrak vacation to NYC? If so, how was it in terms of getting transportation from the train station to and from the hotel and attractions?
Penn Station is probably the easiest place to get transportation in the western hemisphere. It’s maybe slightly annoying to get to certain places on the East Side, but that’s only relatively speaking. If you really don’t want to take the subway, there will in all likelihood be cabs waiting for you outside.
I always initially walk the wrong way on exiting Penn Station, it’s like an NYC tradition for me. But, yeah, like Tom says it’s super easy to get anywhere from there.
Oh, crap, time has passed and I need to do my appraisal today. It's only 6 bullet points, but that's more than I want to do
Hey! The Birthday Poster What Posts on Birthdays is down for the count for a couple of days, so...
