    I could do either, assuming my body holds up. (I, um, sort of fell down and hurt my knee again.)

    Wahine, you are a doll.

    I can do either weekend, so if it works, would be happy to switch so you can crew the 19th-20th. I am, like, 100% sure, barring the totally unforeseen event, that I will come.

    Dex?? "Sort of" fell down?? You OK? You and I can just walk that run, you know...not to worry.

    I'm just the biggest klutz ever, really. I tripped over a metal cable that was used to anchor an electric or telephone pole on a sidewalk, twisted my knee and then went down hard on the edge of the curb. I managed to keep most of my skin, but the bruising and swelling was kind of hideous for a few days. The best part was that I was on my way into a meeting with an ad agency for some freelance work. I think the obvious tears in my eyes, and the ice I requested, really worked to get me some sympathy points when I walked in.

    At this point, I'm definitely going to have to walk. I had almost gotten myself up to short bursts of slow running, but I don't see that happening again soon. I'm thinking it may be in my best interest to buy some body armor to put on whenever I leave the house, just for the injury prevention. Heh.

    Wahine, thanks for putting this together!

    I'm more than 80% sure that I could make either of those weekends.

    Dex, that sounds like quite a stinger. If you're walking, I'll probably be keeping you company. I haven't run since injuring my back two years ago. I think my body has forgotten how.

    Wahine, you are awesome.

    We're shift bidding on friday so I'll know my schedule for the summer. Am keeping my fingers crossed for weekends but we will see....once I know my schedule and if it conflicts with this, I'll see if I can work around it somehow.

    So in essence, I know nothing right now

    I do know, work scheduling aside, that probably the 26/27 is better though we're free both weekends. We have plans on the 18th (a friday) that will get us home Very Late that night.

    I checked through my non-office work schedule and both weekends are good in that regard.
