I am going to be in SFO for 2 - 3 weeks starting 19th June - do you want to get your excuses for not meeting up together now?

It’ll be great to see you, Phillip! The weekend of the 19th I’m in Los Angeles, but after that I’ll be flexible to meet you in the evening. Maybe we could go to a Giants game.
