Yahoo!!!! I finally talked to Dad about the road trip and he gave me the (grudging) green light. We still haven't discussed the details of the cat, but he said I could go without him being too upset with me, so I'm sure we can work the rest out later. So - Nate, Reen, Matt, Carrie, Mark, S-Lo (and other Clevelanders), Chicago people, and Kate - I will be departing Charleston around next Friday, June 20 (give or take a couple days) and heading towards Pitts. Lemme know when you'll be where and if I can crash at your place without inconveniencing you too much. :-)
