Why not both? A Marx brothers film about making an operetta!

As a point of interest, I have been a singing dog in a show.

Alternately, a Marx brothers film, an extended scene in a hotel lobby, revolving doors, Rob hidden by a passing luggage rack, the elevator doors close just before he spots you. Mayhem ensues, and suddenly, Harpo is holding your leg.

-e-’s opretta!

Ouch… an awful lot of pressure, putting off your departure in hope of a “hello and goodbye” hug. Putting faith in the vagaries of traffic and trains.

The timing of the month indeed seems a comedy worthy of an operetta… will you be disguised as a page perchance? Surely the dying dog will be a pivotal plot point before all is revealed and there is a joyous reunion! With singing!

This is my inclination. The trouble is, that there’s still no guarantee that I’ll see him.

My first thing on Friday is a Kaffeeklatsch at noon. It makes me a little nervous if things go wrong in transit, but yes, I’m leaning toward the early train on Friday.

Being an incredibly, closeted sap-head, I would hold out as long as I could to see my hubby.

Well, if you head to Readercon on Friday morning you still get much of Friday, all of Saturday, and then Sunday as well at the con. I’m not going to be making it up there until sometime Friday afternoon myself.
