We have a digital, in need of new batteries, of which I have many. There will be metric fuckloads of photos.

AMY! (sorry. still smug and hellapleased with myself and don't foresee not being hellapleased and smug for some time to come. I mean, both Amys, and erika, and katefate, and Fay, and.....)

Perkins, I would totally take something toward the BBQ - the headcount right now is pushing forty people - but only if we know there's extra. Still want to work out the total with tax; I think we're just about covered, but it's math.

One thing I'll remind all the prom-goers of: bring cash to stuff down nice shy cutehead bartender's, er, accounts receivable drawer. They're being unbelievably cool in stocking everything we want for this party and I've told Lilibeth that Cutehead is going to leave the party happy, after a four-hour stint amongst the kilts and corsetry and tiaras.

Then, speaking just for me, that's what I think we should do with any overflow, should there be any.

Aimee and Epic, I just sent you coupons.

Stoopidhead hotmail sent you to my junk folder, but I finally found you. Thanks much!

Eleventy-brazillian!

HELP. ER.

Pete, my plan (in which I may or may not be beltless) is to make masses of food for th HS, and keep it stocked. The Cheat Sheet (all seven pages of it) just went out to 58 people.

Hopefully, you're letting the F2F fund pay for the cost of your supplies?

We should totally budget money for Deb and anyone else shelling out hostey-wise.

I think the travel fund is a good place for at least some of the money. And the "broke buffistas getting here by hook or by crook who gotta eat" fund.

Hasn't arisen yet - we're still tallying up. But if it's there and not earmarked for other stuff, I'll totally take the help.

And the "broke buffistas getting here by hook or by crook who gotta eat" fund.

Yes, this, and in big damned letters. That's one reason I want the HS beautifully stocked - there are some very tight budgets who managed to make the cost but don't have a lot of extra. I want people fed, and not with just chips and dips. That's one reason I told Lilibeth and Eva two small fridges in the suite, not just one.

Un-official fundage update - we're at $3,300~ish. We should be more than covered.

Will there be a coffee maker in the suite? Probably a stupid question in this crowd, but it couldn't hurt to ask...

Or, does anyone know if the hotel has a coffee shop, and is the coffee any good? Or will I turn my pale little nose up at it (but probably drink it anyway so I don't suffer a headache)?
