I am going to the seamstress now to get my hem marked. 28 hours in a car this weekend just weren't enough, I need two more.

You will not need to take a shuttle or a cab, you will be picked up. I don't know by whom yet, it depends on if someone will be passing through at that time or not. But there's no shuttle between the cities, and it's -way- too far for a cab ride. We'll have you covered.

The Basil (where the rehearsal dinner is) is really NOT a jeans kind of place. However, this is a pretty informal dinner, and I'd say, be comfortable...Since it'll only be US in the place, it's not like we'd have dressed-up people at the other tables looking down on us for spoiling the ambience.
The wait staff might out dress us, I suppose. They wear dark slacks & polo shirts.
We (Dana and I) will be "slightly" dressed up, but no-one should feel like they have to be for this... It's a rehearsal and we're only ones there.

Okay, I can see a family resemblance, but those two don't look like twins to me. And why would ElJay wear them anyway? And now I'm really mystified as to how they're worn. Do you turn them into ear rings?

I am driving in on Saturday morning and driving back on Saturday night. I anticipate arriving at noon, as I'll be leaving Madison around 6am. Should anyone want to catch a ride with me from Madison, I can delay that departure time by a few hours, but we'd probably need to leave by 8am to leave a safe cushion for the wedding.
Though I will not necessarily be planning to come through Des Moines, I'd be happy to do any sort of last minute errands (airport shuttles, buying snacks, retrieving lost items, emergency seamstressing) that I can. Consider me y'all's slave from noon until wedding.
If I get my act together, I'll have a book giveaway free-for-all out of my car in the few hours before the wedding. I will bring bags and have things kind of sorted. I know rivka and plaid's preferences, and I'd be happy to take any other special requests.

ElJay -- I'm planning on picking up mac&Nate on Thursday, but you will have to include them in your spreadsheet for returning to the airport on Sunday. Plane leaves at 4:02.

ElJay, do you have any idea what the arrangements will be? Do you need me to send you a picture so you know what I look like? Also, I'm e-mailing you with my cell phone number in case that becomes necessary.
Edit: Nevermind, it won't let me e-mail you. Can you send an e-mail to [my hatrack username] at gmail.com?

I will probably be picking you up myself, and I would love a picture. The airport's pretty small, though, so we probaby won't have a problem. I'll drop you an email right quick.
Added: Ooops. This is ElJay. Bob will not be picking you up, I will.

I thought it was the bride and groom who were supposed to start looking alike . . . and I thought it took years!
