Hey, beathen, let's drive down to NOLA! It's only like twenty hours!
I'm thinkin' of driving. And yes, I've driven Chicago to NO and back before....
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.
'Beneath You'
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!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hmmm. I might want to get in on that action. Especially cause it means I can introduce you to a lot of my CDs.
A carpool from our general area would be way fun, though I imagine it would mean taking off a little more time from lab. I'll see how things swing. But if it means saving three hundred dollars on a plane ticket...rock.
Of course, with gas prices the way they are, it may not end up any cheaper.

Ann, that's a ferret.

When I was in college, my parents drove to NOLA from Southern Wisconsin. Easily done in 2 days, or 1 if you really want to push yourself.

Cool! But I'll need to know by tomorrow...
Kidding.
Anyway, roadtrips are a lot more fun with when you're not by yourself.

Yeah, my only qualm is the extra days-take-offage. The way next semester's shaping up, though, the F2F is going to be a few weeks after my prelims, so it may be a much-needed escape.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've done Detroit to NO and back -- once slowly, once fast. Fast was pretty horrible, slowly was kinda boring.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
How many hours was that?

Fast was 4pm to about 10 am the next day. Slow was three days, no night driving.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

ROADTRIP!!! I've never done one that long with non-relatives - could be fun!

If people are gonna carpool I'd definately get in on it, although we couldn't drive my car - it wouldn't survive that trip. I don't think it'd be a problem to get a few days off from work since I'm not planning any days off from January to April anyway.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Re F2F activities: It should be noted, for clarity's sake, that the bowling expedition at the LA F2F was bowling with feathers, ballgowns and tiaras, and was either immediately preceded or immediately followed by a field trip to Sephora.
