[games_access] today's meeting

[d. michelle hinn]

Yeah it was pretty insane -- I was in a residential area so I wasn't 
going fast but there were kids everywhere! So I ran a stop sign 
(luckily no one else was there) and picked a nice hedge in front of a 
house and yanked the keys out. The emergency break didn't do much and 
I was in a "ok, just pick a scenario and go with it!" kind of rush. 
It didn't take long for everyone to come around and see what the deal 
was. I didn't get a ticket because I didn't leave the scene and no 
one was hurt and I basically did what I could do to try and avoid a 
major accident. Also they *could tell* I wasn't going fast (no sure 
how but I suppose that it's probably due to how easily I crash landed.

I think that we might need to switch to Tuesdays and Wednesdays in 
order to grab Barrie. I'll send around another annoucement -- so you 
may need to switch your Outlook for the Thursday meeting but I'll 
send a confirmation to the list.

Car troubles, kids everywhere...eeee...nice morning...they called an 
ambulance even! But the only thing I needed was anti-anxiety med! I'm 
sure my dreams will be easy tonight...eeee...
