Yes, ND, and it earned you brownie points.

weiners, otoh, are the foodstuff of the devil.

Ick.

Proper British sausages, however, can be a very nice thing sometimes.

(I know that this is totally subjective, and I've nothing against the wienerphiliac among you. Just think you're crazyheads.)

eta I have NO idea how to spell this word. It is not an English word. I feel it should be weiner, but then a little voice in the back of my head says it derives from Vienna, so maybe wiener, and then another little voice says that maybe it should be spelled ickythingsthatpretendtobesausagesbutaren'treally.

It's spelled "weiner."

Damn the Viennese, and give me a cock-dog!

I love English gents. They get remarkably squeamish hearing orgasms mentioned, but the ones I've had were splendid at - oh, right, squeamish. Won't go there.

Honestly, why not let some of the activites just flow? Not the things with opening and closing times attached, obviously, but why not see how it goes before making hard plans?

Just suggesting, mind you.

I'd like to go thrifting. And hit the corset place(s). A friend told me I MUST go to Citizen Cake. And someone mentioned a Dashiell Hammett-themed tour (I really love Hammett).

And for Jilli, isn't there a fabulous fabric place? Britex or something?

This is me. I'm doing Alcatraz, want to do cartoons and then dim sum on Saturday, and Sunday might do B2B and will do BBQ. Other than that, I'm resisting any firm plans. (In fact, I might drop this thread for a while because it's starting to make me tense up. Not that I don't like hearing all the ideas thrown out there, but I have an intense antipathy to overscheduling.)

This is by far the most I have done in advance planning and commitment. In the past I haven't done the tours so much as hang in the HS. Either way works.

A friend told me I MUST go to Citizen Cake.

Oh, YUM. I need to do that, too.

Same here. And I've actually started to back out of stuff because I'm just getting overwhelmed with options! Staying in my jammies and communing with other jammiephiles is starting to sound really good.

I'm just going with the flow. the only things that I am committing to are the BBQ and Prom. anything else will just happen

Oh, I agree. I'm one of those weirdos who likes to make plans but also likes changing them on the fly as something shiny catches my eye. The only things I have for sure are Alcatraz, the Winchester House, and Prom. Otherwise, I like loose plans for shopping Friday, but no need to detail every minute.
