Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?  

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!

Also, localistas, what will the weather most likely be doing? I know it;s unpredictable, but rough guess?

65 and sunny. Fog can come in at night so bring layers. Never go out in just short sleeves because the temp can drop 15 degrees from neighborhood to neighborhood.

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

Aimee, bring layers. Most places, the saying "don't like the weather, wait ten minutes" works. In SF, it's more along the lines of "holy shit the fog, it's alive, it's coming to kill us all - wait, where the hell is the fog?!!"

Safest thing to pack for the Bay Area, always, is layers. Bring a couple of sleeveless and a couple of sleeves, and toss a warm jacket in the car. You've been living in the southland - you could get chilly.

edit: total David xpost.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Watching baseball with Hec and Suzi, et al, would be entertaining, true. If the game didn't get in the way of the talking and the anecdotes and the fun. I'm being a brat, I know. I just find most sports in.ter.min.a.ble. I'm missing a vital gene or something. I can't figure out why I should care who wins.

I also have no investment in which character I read. I'll pick up whoever isn't cast, if that's okay.

Clearly, I'm a wishy-washy individual who can't be arsed to make a stand on anything.

This may mitigate against the quite partisan enjoyment of your local sports team.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm sure truth falls somewhere between the folks who love it and the folks who consider it anathema. Boring anathema.

My sistah! I'm sure conversing with Buffistas can make almost anything fun, but I prefer my fun to be with better food and no drunken loudmouths shouting epithets in the background.

Yes, in my version of Hell baseball is the only sport. And Yoko Ono always sings the national anthem...

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I've found that armwarmers are Teh Bomb Diggity here.

IJS. My lack of sports interest is a character flaw, I freely admit it. But I make up for it in other ways.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yeah! Pesky liberal fencepost-sitting wishy-washy...oh. No. That's me. Mr Pot? How do you do. My name is Mr Kettle.

However, I think Hec's sold it to me. Cool. 'kay. I won't have much of a clue what's going on, but fun will be had. Sounds good to me.

(So long as I don't have to go anywhere near any frankfurters. Seriously. I'll send out a message to my peeps and homies and sing God Bless America and consider getting a Buffy-related tattoo and all that USA-loving jazz, but hotdogs are my line in the sand.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I am Beverly.

Apparently, I am Matt, as well.

I'm all about BBQ Chez Grabien.

My brother! Except my sport in Hell is basketball. And I'm chained to seat right behind the visiting team's bench, being forced to watch eleven foot tall people in baggy knickers, running back and forth and saying nasty things to each other, forever.

With (bleah) cheerleaders. Because Satan wants to make me his personal little pet.
