I'm in Spain until Monday night; then I HAVE to be back at work (they're emailing my Blackberry "Where do you stand on this question?" and I can't reply, though I wanted to, "I stand in Spain; and I sit in Spain; and I was actually lying down in Spain at this very point too, since it's bedtime; WILL you send the thing to my delegate and let me alone, please?").
The shoes will have to go without me. VETO, too, is out for me this year; I knew it from the beginning of spring so I didn't plan on it. I get three weeks of official vacation, and I've already spent a week at NASSLLI and two in Madrid, plus a banked day. I've got more banked time and suchlike, but I am going to use it strategically at later points in the autumn to pursue non-trivial interests; for now, good luck at VETO, etc., say hi to Zhz and Brock and all these people for me.
