The producers have been more helpful than the Buffy/Angel producers, which I thought was impossible
Wow, that's great!
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I should go grocery shopping, and maybe to the bookstore, since I have no food and nothing to read. But it's cold outside, and I don't feel like getting dressed.
Ditto. At least I have plans to go to the movies later, and I can get groceries on the way home from that.
Allyson, that sounds awesome. But not as awesome as your hair.

Allyson, yay on the former event being so great, yay on people being helpful and, well, all-around nice, on the event ahead, and yay you for making these things happen.
And with that, I should really go home. Night, everybody! Good rest-of-Monday to all.

I got my iBook 'repaired' at the Apple Store. The repair turned out to be that the Apple Extreme Card wasn't fully plugged into the interior antenna. Which to be fair to me, I'd checked several times, it looked connected and all. I think I managed not to blush.
On the plus side, the "repair" cost me $0.00 and now I can surf from my loungey chair in the living room.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Jesse, I thought to ask you, the charity said that they'd help with a joint press release and send a notice out to its members about the party, which I think is asking them too much, though I could be on crack. It's not too much, you think? I hope?

I'm not sure if that kind of bonding has happened in the fandom, yet.
You might get a confluence of Mutant Enemy writer fans, and Alias fans, etc. that are familiar with and want to see each other.
As for decor, just think about all the prosthetically enhanced people you won't have to make arrangements for this time around.

I'd be a wreck if Kristen didn't throw her hat in the ring to partner with us. The thing that makes these events happy-making is getting to work with friends. I can't tell you how calming it was to have ita there last year, or to see Plei and DX and the LAistas helping and chatting and just THERE, you know?
It was like, "these people won't let me die."

Generally if an outside group approaches a charity about doing a fundraiser, it turns out they want the charity to do all the work. So a mailing or two should not be a problem.

Are you kidding? I found tropical fish shaped balloons! So they'll be fish swimming throughout the place and blue and green lights and streamers to create an ocean effect and sushi!
I'm getting ahead of myself.

That all sounds great, Allyson. I am definitely going to be there.
