I'm home.
The plane was all loaded up in Phoenix, where I transferred, and then they discovered that the pilot was in Las Vegas, so we were delayed an hour and a half.
I'm in a daze, but I wanted to say that I loved meeting the peeps I hadn't met, loved seeing the ones I'd already met, and wish I'd had more time for everyone and everything. I've got a few photos and a very short AVI (with the same problem as Tommyrot, I'm betting) that I will upload tomorrow. I'm too tired to find the memory cards tonight.
Deb, you are amazing. Thank you. Thanks to everyone for being so wonderful.
DEENA!!!! Glad you are home safe. I felt like such a bad host, not feeding you breakfast, knowing how a day of travel does not equal edible food.
Tom, are you still in town? You are welcome to crash at my place if you need to. It's not much, but it's got a roof.
La la la! I'm off to gambol merrily in the daisies, and sing sweet songs of jollity. La la la!
Mark my words, this Does Not Bode Well. My abject sadness at being home from F2F has suddenly transformed into relief that I'm now 2,000 miles from Ground Zero.
Now safely and tiredly esconced at home, though I fear that rather than returning alone I brought the F2F Plague as a houseguest—no chance I caught this from anyone other than Buffistas, as any strangers getting within hugging/infecting distance of me would have been on the evening news as chalk outlines. I had such a blast this weekend visiting with everyone! Special thanks to Deb for doing a superb job of organizing everything and opening her home to the vast mass of Buffistas.
Tom, I can help you with the hotel. Do you want me to call and give them a credit card? You can pay me back when your new card comes.
Tom, give me a call if you need either a) a back up credit card for the hotel, or b) some cash.
not feeding you breakfast
Pish tosh. I was fine. I slept most of the first leg of the flight and the second leg they gave me coffee and diet pepsi and I read a lot. You were a smashing hostess and I appreciate you so much.
I'm OK with cash, since I just visited an ATM. We'll see how it goes with the bank in the morning.
Just give me a call if you need a credit card. I'm sending my work number to your profile address, since my cell doesn't usually work in the building.
I love the jumping to the rescue buffistas.
I'm off to bed, will unpack and find my pictures tomorrow.
