Thanks, -t! I'm figuring if there's some kind of MetroCard thingie like in NYC, I won't have time to get one, because I'm getting in late-ish Friday and then heading out to dinner, etc.

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 am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
There is some sort of MUNI pass that might save you some $$ if you end up using the bus/cable cars a lot, but quarters (I think folding money is okay, too) definitely work.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Anything from folding money down to pennies is fine (but it can't make change); there are also 3-day passes you can get, and a couple of places still sell packets of tokens.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Can you pay cash on the bus?
Yep. Costs a buck fifty, and you ask for a transfer. The transfer is good for at least 90 minutes and you can use it on any flavour of MUNI that isn't the cable cars. Folding money is fine, but remember, they don't make change, so I'll just load you up with six quarters and out you go.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Would anyone else like to go for dim sum Saturday morning? (And if so, can any locals recommend a place? Carts preferred to menus!)

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'd be up for that.

Dim sum sounds good to me.

Dim sum, yum. And if it means a little early (or not so early) wandering of interesting streets, all the better.

Sounds yummy to me Jessica, and while I'm a local, I'm not local enough to make a recommendation. Though if no one speaks up, I can do some poking around.

Jessica, I would be interested in that, for sure, and probably Tom too.
