For me - this all hinges on two things - if I have to work Tuesday night
and if I'm physically ready to hit the highway come deadline time. I am
working on getting tuesday off or at the least working tuesday AM. As
for being physically ready to leave? I'm just going to assume that by
deadline time - I will have everything done :-D

I've made plans to meet up with a friend of mine in Marion, OH and hang
out for a little bit. So I won't be part of the convoy heading back west.

Sweet - I may actually take you up on this - seriously. My buddy (who
is pissed that he cant get time off work to come with us) will let me
stay at his place - but he is about as bad as I am and there would be a
good chance we could be up until 3 am playing X-box or watching Super
Troopers. Might be better if I wasnt subjected to that sort of slacker
environment hehehe. Though I dunno if you are any better Josh LOL
