If I could tag along on the thrifting trip, I would adore you all.
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?

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!

I'd bet that Kristin would want to get in on a Dark Garden trip too.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
JZ, I'm assuming Wasteland and those, but aren't there also a couple on Upper Market, near the Castro? and there's always the amazing one on Fillmore.
And if you're on Fillmore, there's always lunch at La Mediterranee...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Off the top of my head, the Upper Haight has Wasteland, Held Over, Buffalo Exchange, and the Goodwill store (which often is ass, but occasionally has some good surprises). Aaardvark's is also there and might be worth a quick look, but has been crap for rather a long while.
And for incredibly pricey, save-up-for-months extremely splurgey vintage there's LaRosa's and a new place that's opened up almost right across the street from LaRosa's -- both are quite expensive but worth it: very beautiful (frequently couture) vintage stuff for both men and women, in excellent, wearable condition. Not for the bargain hunter, but great for vintage pieces you'll still feel happy about years later.
IIRC, there may be some more vintage and thrift in the Lower Haight, plus at least one good record store, and there's plenty of thrift and vintage all along Valencia Street in the neighborhood of the pirate store and Good Vibrations.
The Fillmore, Upper Market and the Castro I don't really know at all, unfortunately (I remember looking out the car or bus window and seeing some places but have no recollection of exact names or locations), but if someone else wants to lead the way I'm there.

The status is NOT quo.

The man knows me well.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm totally up for a trip to Dark Garden
I need in on the Dark Garden trip, as I've been encouraged to get a properly fitted corset.
There will also be a thrifting trip to Haight Street, yes?
And I have specific thrifting needs, as well.
Shit. Must book plane ticket.

Skimmed.
Food: Can't eat onions ever but real good at knowing what has em or asking someone to taste test for me. Ingredient lists rock.
Badges: Have all my previous name tags. I think I wore them briefly, but still treasure them.

Yes. This. And be damned to the expense.
And if I can't accompany JZ and Jilli to the thrift store...well, I'll cope manfully, but there may be weeping into my pillow.
