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!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

That's the only beer I drink, too, Epic.

I'll have to see if I can stash a coupla bottles in my luggage. (That's not against any security rules, is it? I've never tried to fly with liquor before. I think there's a joke in there somewhere.)

Jameson's is good for me.

I have Patron down. Does that not work?

Whoops, must have missed that.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Meaning that we still need to raise another $750, correct? Or am I high?

Alas, you're low. Remember the hospitality suite has to get paid for.

Our wings are not tired.

I've flown with booze. It is a bit heavy to cart around though.

Gulp. If we haven't made our goal when we get closer to date I'll kick in some more.

We're still a ways off, I think - what are we going to need to pay ahead of time, and when? Maybe having those dates and numbers will spur people along sooner rather than later.

Laura, no panic. I have one or two things that need taking care of first, but I haven't sent juliana mine yet. And ND is covering the fourth night of the HS himself, so it's just three nights.

No worries. We'll get it taken care of. And the hotel isn't asking for even a deposit until the week of the event.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

We haven't contributed either, but will closer to the date once some cash gets freed up.

brenda, any chance you have any of your yummy Ponche left?

I've still got to kick in a little more to the fund. I was waiting to see how it was going and what my finances looked like. Pretty darn good, actually; all the overtime I've been putting in makes a nifty paycheck.

Well, it helps that we were able to keep associated costs down, specifically in the PA/audio-video area. We were very fortunate in the people at hotel, and I'm going to send both Eva and Lilibeth nice prezzies once the party is over; any caterer will tell you that event staff who know their shit and work with you are worth their weight in gold.
