We should be ok as long as they're not thunderstorms. Rain should be fine. It rains all the time.

Hmmm well that's not good. I guess I'll wear my rain jacket and hope for the best.

Depending on the tides, a very small amount of rain can flood downtown.  They are very well prepared for it.  It doesn't last long.  When the tides go out, the water will go with it.  It floods all the time.

Yeah, the entire southeast is supposed to get some crazy weather tomorrow. I wouldn't be too worried. I've flown into our airport during many nasty thunderstorms. Hopefully it won't be a big deal, however, I am not really looking forward to driving 4 hours in a stormy mess.

No worries!  With the amount of booze we have, the only thing you need to be concerned with is how pretty you are.

[osulori]

Omg you guys are killing me. I know it's my own fault I'm not going (damn you car and your need to have a side mirror replaced*) but still.

*also my own fault, for "tapping" a trash can with said mirror

Has anyone ever actually witnessed her doing this? I was so sad in Kiawah, when she never became drunk enough for it to happen. (Although a drunk taratru made up for my disappointment, with her reenactment of drunk history.)

I was trying to be good last year, lol! It pretty much happens every time I got out with my friends. I start by taking selfies.

Have we talked about how there is a democratic presidential debate in Charleston Sunday night?

I never understand why some cities do this. Lets have a marathon! And restaurant week! And a democratic debate! FFS, people, spread it out. 

[emilyj]

I haven't started packing at all.

I did go to Sam's yesterday and buy Sour Patch kids, sour straws and M&M's. Then told the lady who was checking me out "Don't judge me."

Is this where I mention that a certain candidate is on my 'Free Pass' list?  

Or should we wait until we are a few cocktails in to have that discussion?

I'm cracking up at this trying to imagine who it is.  I mean, if it's not O'Malley.

I admit I'm kinda freaking out since I get in a little late. We are also supposed to have weird weather here in Chicago so if I take off on time, I will be shocked.

5pm-ish arrival crew - clseale, fuckyourcouch and @cheshire - I was going to send out an email so we could add our flight info in case of delays and such. Hope that is cool? I have to go hunt down the spreadsheet to find your addresses though so bear with me.

We have a PM happening on here...I THINK I just added you. 

[mrshandy]

Can we get an e-mail or something with all the drivers phone numbers so we can get in touch if someone's flight is delayed and they need to switch cars for a reason?

Looking back at Gt's post it looks like @vtcupcake, wambam, gt7301b, al320, emilyj, clseale are the people with cars.

[fuckyourcouch]

Dammit, I hate flying, don't tell me about storms lol.

I have Xanax but I don't want to be all loopy and have it lingering for the race. Hrmmmm.
