Just a note about that last - unlike other locales, my plan for New Orleans is to be so overstuffed from meals that having food available at the prom is a very low priority. If others feel the same way, we may want to take that into consideration when planning the overall amount to have on hand.
F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!

Here's the thing. We need to spend $1500 on Saturday night between food and drinks. In DC we spent around $400 on drinks. So we need to spend the money on the catering that night or we have to give them the difference as payment for the room. So, have an appetite for Saturday night. The food that the hotel has available looks to be quite good and a big chunk of the money we need to collect is going to this item.
So, the plan is drink and eat more?!
Damn, double-sorry I won't be there. I mourn seafood and raw oysters.
Mmmm. Raw oysters.
How much are folks budgeting for walk-around money?
Eat, drink, and be merry.
The hotel actually has an amazing selection of food on the catering list so the current plan is to raise enough money to have a very nice spread of food out and that will cover most of our money requirements.
Damn, I really want to go. Maybe I could, If I drove and crashed on someone's floor. Wait, I know a philospphy prof at Tulane where I could stay. Is anyone driving? Can I meet someone in Missouri, or Arkansas or Tennesee or something. I could maybe swing it.
Erin, Matt is driving from around Memphis, it seems.
You'd be welcome to stop by Memphis and ride on down with me Erin. You'd even get to store your car in a secured lot.
I've driven from KC to Memphis before, and I could crash with my friends in Springfield for the night and drive to Mmephis in the am....Matt, I can't make a committment now, because I simply don't know how jobs/money will be by then. But put me down as a "maybe," and if I CAN go, I'll share gas $$ and driving duties.
And I'll keep you updated.
But I can't drive a stick (not a porn joke, just the truth.)
Erin might come, Erin might come!!!!!
