Which room was intended for me?

Toe,
I look forward to seeing you, man. It's been a while. Maybe we can meet up after I finish work? I should be done by 6:30 (I know, but these people work late). I need to check into my hotel before we go out. Do you want to meet me at the hotel? Or I could just go to wherever we decide to eat--Adams Morgan would be a good place, if you want to get Etheropian. If you're taking Metro in, I'll just meet you at a metro stop (Dupont or Woodley). We can talk tomorrow.

If I get out of there earlier, I could meet you earlier. You leave work around 4, right?

I'm just scrambling to prep for meetings, but want to acknowledge your effort to post. You don't seem unsharp, by any means. I read back on my posts and think I might actually be dulling down with age.

I hear you about the church crowd. I bet they'll accept you, man, if you made the effort. But I understand about not wanting to make that effort. I have some sort of social phobia, I think, so hanging back waiting for others to approach sounds natural to me. But effort to make conversation is always good, and is usually rewarding. It's just those few times when it is unrewarding--or embarrassing--that I always remember, and these make me not want to approach people. Anyway, we'll talk more tomorrow. I'll call tonight or tomorrow.
