[personal profile] cos
I have a mental quirk about remembering where people live: I have two separate indexes, one keyed by person, the other keyed by location. The first one updates when I find out someone has moved, but not the second - that one usually only updates when I see the person in that location (sometimes, if I meet someone for the first time who lives somewhere else, I enter them in the second mental index correctly, but sometimes I don't). If I want to remember where you live, I can. But if I'm visiting somewhere and try to remember who's there, I often miss some people simply because I've never hung out with them there. It can go on like that for years, and through multiple visits.

Help me by filling out this poll! If you want me to remember where you are, that is :)

After a week or two, I'm going to "backdate" it to the future, so it'll be near the top of [livejournal.com profile] cos and you can easily find it and updated it if you wish. [Edit: actually, nevermind - I'm just linking here from my top-of-journal post]


Options are checkboxes so you can select multiple locations. If your family's there, your primary's there, you go to school in one place and spend the summer in another, you grew up there and still have a lot of friends and visit every year or two, include them all.

[Edit: If you checked "somewhere you didn't list at all", leave it in a comment?]

Graham and I will be there for Christmas this year! (arriving day-of; not sure how long we'll stay) My folks live in Noblesville, a bit northwest of the city proper, IIRC.
We'll actually be in Louisville shortly before the new year as well, because APO is having nationals there this year and we want to go for some of it.
Will [livejournal.com profile] marphod be with you this holiday? (I don't know how you guys do the family stuff.)

I don't know; we might stop in, but we definitely won't stay there overnight. We do need to be back in Madison on New Years Day, so it might be cutting it close. It'd be nice to see people, though. (I haven't seen Vynce in a few years...)

(Northeast. But less than an hour from anywhere I'd be in Indy, certainly. It's amazing how much my sense of "reasonable driving time/distance" warps in considering Midwest vs. Big Northeast City)

[livejournal.com profile] marphod and I holiday together--he seems to like my family lots more than his anyway, so... :-P

Might I highly recommend not driving back from Noblesville to Madison and then down to Louisville within the same week? Assuming you can stand that long with family.

We'll definitely be either in Indianapolis or Louisville the week between Christmas and New Year's: [livejournal.com profile] marphod will want to head south sooner, I will want to stay north later, and we will compromise, as always. Definitely get in touch if you want to get out and about. My cell #, which you should be able to see in my last post in my own journal, should reach us. Poke me if you can't read that.

Sorry we missed you in this neck of the woods over Labor Day--minor detail about being out of the country. Silly, I know.

Haha!
Yeah, the vague plan is Madison -> Wadsworth IL for a few days (G's folks) -> Noblesville on Xmas for a day or two -> Louisville at least for APO nationals, and then back to Madison by New Years Day. We'll have a rental car, so transportation won't be a problem. It sounds like even if we don't meet up near Indy, we might be able to meet up in Louisville, so either way it works :).

And yep, I can see your contact info! Neither of us has a cell phone, alas, so we'll have to be the ones to call you, I think -- but it'll work out.
