Heather has a maybe +1.
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

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!

So that still puts us at under 20 right now. Does it sound like a good idea to look into cancelling the ballroom for the event Saturday night and just go with the hospitality suite? I'm not even sure we'll be able to do that, but right now it's a small group and the plans were made assuming a group of around 50.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's fine with me, but the Prom's never been a big part of my F2F experience.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Yeah, I think it's for the best.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It sounds like it would make sense to tell the St. Louis that we expect to be a smaller group than we originally envisioned and see what they suggest. I poked my head into what I think is the room we have reserved for the Prom when Jessica was in town, and I don't think it was really huge. But if it's priced beyond our means now...well, I guess we should do something else.

At least a discussion with the hotel on making the change. I don't know the details of the contract. I've enjoyed the last few Proms very much, but the smaller outings were the most fun. Lounging around the HS and nattering F2F also a big hit with me.
Another unknown is how many last minute folks might be attending. Or those attending but haven't been to the thread recently to add their name to the list.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Should someone stick something in press, asking who else is going or thinks they might go?

Yes, there may well be more last minutes and things like that, but we are still not even half way to the $2500 mark needed for this event. I can see maybe a dozen more folks coming out of the woodwork, but do we really think that 30 to 40 more people are going to turn up last minute?
I'll ping Kristin and have her check with the hotel and find out what our options are.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I think one of the funniest moments was when we were at the Italian restaurant and you rather graphically described what you wanted to do the first time you saw Spike on Buffy. The look from the man behind you was comedy gold. And he kept on stealing looks at you the rest of the way through dinner
I missed this too! There is too much to pay attention to in a group of buffistas.
