Can't login to sandbox

I recently registered for this site (2 days ago) and I don't think my login credentials are in the sandbox system yet. Is there any way to get access?

Hi, Cedric. I don't have access to your email address right now, but if you send me a note, I'll shoot over a Sandbox invite. sarah at metaweb dot com

The documentation says that your freebase account isn't copied over to the Sandbox until the big load on Monday afternoon.

More details on the difference between sandbox and freebase.com

Tim Kientzle wrote on the developers mailing list:

1) The production site (freebase.com) has a much lower default limit on the amount of
data a single user can write per day.  This can be adjusted on a per-
user basis, though; please let us know if you need that.

2) Sandbox data is discarded every Monday and replaced with a fresh
copy of the production database (including account and authentication
data).

3) Sandbox receives new software images a couple of days in advance of
the production site.
