Can you go Saturday? I'm up for it.
ReplyDeleteDid you go? I was in NYC this weekend for work. The only Saturday I can make it is the 23rd - I called Ms. Booker to RSVP for that date, and she said she had over 70 folks signed up for this past Saturday....
ReplyDeleteI couldn't go Saturday. Do you know anyone who did?
ReplyDeleteI'll try to go this weekend and report back.
The line is busy...I'm trying to go too...
