While I admire all y'all for planning to run/walk/amble B2B, nothing will pry my ass out of bed that early on a weekend/vacation.
Crazy peoples.
Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

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!

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Yeah, Buffista Prom is the one night of the year when I drink enough to actually risk getting drunk. If I manage to stagger down to the lobby in time to do brunch with people, I consider it a victory for temperance.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Dude. The fact that I'm even staying in town while B2B is being run is a sign of "greater love hath no woman".
Because the course is far too near Chez Grabien - we live a block and a half from the Park on the north side. And we get the news coverage helicopters over our damned house at six ack emma.
Normally, we would be hightailing it out of SF that weekend. But this time, no.

Our wings are not tired.
The advantage of doing a race at 8am on your coast is that my body will think it is a more decent hour of 11. This gives me hope.

I think it would be a good idea not to even try to sleep until after the B2B. In fact, I might be found carrying prosecco in a plastic bottle as I meander somewhere along the race route.

The status is NOT quo.
8AM? Forget the kilt and tiara. I'll be marathon-sleeping.

See, this is what I'm saying!

I know, I know. I'm very fond of the sleep myself. But this may be the only time I'm in SF when the B2B is held and it looks like more a fun race than a serious race and that appeals to me.
That is one of the lovely things about picking SF. There are so many options for things to do. Yay!
I may come a couple days early because it looks like DH may have to leave on Saturday to be in Baltimore on Sunday. Boo. I'm trying to talk him out of being all responsible.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I have walked the B2B a couple of times. Now, admiditly I am not quite as sleep loveing as some Buffistas - late sleeping, even when I don't sleep at night is 9am. But I will be walking it.

I like the idea of just painting ourselves blue and walking the B2B.
