I'd like to go see the Wall as well (not with you DX, just in general). I have no personal connection to Viet Nam, but that monument in particular is sort of designed to make it personal.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Thanks for the meetup place, Steph. I've got driving directions, so everything should be copacetic. But you're in my cell phone should I get lost. t mwah

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm torn on wanting to go to the Wall and/or the Holocaust Museum. I've been to the Wall before, but that was a long time ago, before the first Gulf War, and honestly, I was 17. War wasn't real to me. I'd like to see the wall through 16 more years of experience.
However, I *also* know myself well enough to know that going to either -- but especially the Holocaust Museum -- will upset me enough that I might well be useless for the rest of the day.
Spy Museum for me. I can sneak around corners in my inconspicuous cherry dress and hot pink wig.

I'd like to visit the Holocaust Museum, but not on this trip.

The Holocaust Museum is very good. I won't be going a second time.

I won't be going a second time.
See, that reaction right there is why I can't go on this trip. It'll unhinge me.

There's a very good Holocaust museum out here too (in addition to the Simon Weisenthal Center, which I haven't been to yet), and I visited that museum late last year.

Goes to stand in Jessica's corner. I am torn on if I want to go see the Wall for a second time, but I am sure I won't be doing the Holocaust Museum again.

Cincinnati actually has a Holocaust museum, which I only recently discovered. I haven't been to it yet.

I haven't been to the Holocaust museum. I need to go, I want to go, but I'm still not over seeing Auschwitz, and that was 10 years ago.
