Just checking:
Can we get a roll call, or anyhow some kind of bullshit consensus, on the thrifting/corsetry expedition? Who's definitely interested, who's got a preference for Valencia or Haight (brief breakdown here; I know that Jeeves is leaning anti-Haight, but no idea of anyone else's preference), what time people want to get started?
Gramercy!
Aimee, call Lilibeth: Tel:415-575-5246. Tell her you're part of the Buffistas group and need a room for Thursday night. You'll probably get her voicemail - leave her the detailed room request and ask her to either ring you back or email me back with a confirmation number.

I am fairly interested as walking around the city with Buffistas seems like quality time.
I just want to say, further, that HICC is the rockingest hotel that ever rocked like a think that rocks in a rocking -type environment. I called the 800 number and they quoted me $139 for Thursday night as our block was already filled, I said I'd hold off and was planning on calling Lilibeth when the very nice gentleman on the phone said, "Well, let me check with my manager." He did and they extended the $99 rate to us.
If there is any money left over (Joe and I still need to contribute, BTW), has it already been discussed to maybe get something for Lilibeth in way of a thank you gift for being the rockingest thing that etc etc etc?
JZ, I'd be interested in the thrifting, and I lean toward Valencia.
juliana! What was the last day you wanted PayPal money? Would it be better at this point to just bring you cash?
Yes on thrifting, and I prefer Valencia b/c of the other (non-thrift) stores like Borderlands, Good Vibes, Pirate Store, etc. Oooh, and Indian ice cream!
Maybe on thrifting. I'm very interested, but want to play it by ear. I don't have any particular leanings, though the other places Steph mentioned are cool too. Needing plus sized clothes, I'm not sure how much success I'd actually have in the thrift stores.
Off to the airport (going in the other direction, sadly). Have a great time everyone, and Too Much Candy and lots of photos for thems/us that be missing out.
