Tom, what are you looking for? I've spent quite a bit of time in Southern California on business, and there's a lot there to see. Plenty in Metro LA (and if you like beaches, an afternoon at Santa Monica and Venice would be very worthwhile). The high desert is a little tougher to get to but very scenic and, I would think, could provide a very relaxing break.
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

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!

Our wings are not tired.
I would say go Florida Tom, but May - Labor Day not the best choice. Now February or March, that's the time to visit me.
Brendon and I will be there. Hopefully a few days in advance. He has to leave Saturday and I'll leave Sunday or Monday. I have to sit down with our calendars and get with the reservation making.
on edit not quite so jealous as when I thought Tom had the whole summer off. That would totally rock.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I will be walking across a platform, not living it up in SF. But ya'll better be thinking of me. :)
ETA: This means you guys have seen me through *two* graduations.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I was about to say. Didn't you graduate from high school, like, last week?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I will be there! And yes, I had to wait for the F2F to come to me before I could make one - how sad.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I'll be there! And it can't come soon enough.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Where should I go after SF?
On Monday, the Monterey Aquarium. After that, msybe Seattle if not LA. In LA, you might run into the too much sun issue.

Tom, if you want to head towards LA for a couple of days I'd be happy to do some of the tourist stuff with you like Disneyland, etc. If you like roller coasters at all there are a lot of great ones around the area.
