I have pictures!

Unfortunately, not nearly enough, as my snapping finger often did not obey my brain and snap when I told it too, so there are blurries and odd bits. Here are the good ones:

The ones you're missing out on: Jilli and Pete together, a fuzzy blob of gothy beauty. A pic of Kate P., also fuzzed. The back of Drew... at the very end of the dancing girl sandwich just as they broke apart...so not anything but backs, actually. Etc. At least I got a few good ones.

Oh, she had a great time! And I'm really glad she came up -- we haven't talked much since she's been in school (because that happens when people go to college), and I just love having adult siblings to hang with!

Oh, if anyone wants higher-resolution versions of any of my photos, just drop me a line....

Oh, and Aimee? If it helps in any way at all, please to be remembering that you and your ass created something this pretty. Now to be telling the Body Image Demons to fuck off.

Also K-bug is quite a beautiful young woman.

Given the hard drinking nature of this F2F, I'm even more pleased with the thread title now.

Still didn't get to try a mojito, though.

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.

tries to look innocent

Pete is Deeply Evil, because this morning he led me upstairs to let me use the computer, and then went away leaving his own computer logged into the Phoenix Board. Because he is evil.

I withstood the temptation, even though it was more tempting than a tempty tempty thing coated in chocolate and sequins. I am a Very Good Fay Indeed.

I have a number of photographs that I hope to upload some time soon, including some of Tickybox and Plei in a fantastic Mexican restaurant of yumminess. (Tickybox IS every bit as astonishingly cute as her photographs lead one to believe. Bless. She slays me.)

So sorry that there has been Post F2F shittiness for several people - sending -ma to y'all. (And, on a Scola-related note, I have to agree that Tom has the most incandescent smile I've seen in, well, pretty much ever. Bless the cuteness. I am disconsolate to think that the ATM card crappiness will have dimmed his smile. Stoopid world.)

Deb, don't worry about the pencils. They're not coloured, they're drawing pencils ranging from 2B to 9B, iirc, and it's annoying that I left them but it's not worth the hassle of sending them on - I'm constantly misplacing my drawing pencils and having to buy new ones. If you know anyone who could make use of them over here, please hand them over to them. (I brought art supplies because I have a 14 hour flight, see, and I figured that this could keep me occupied.)

Empress, love, you aren't seriously beset by body image demons, I hope? Because, no disrespect to the other Buffistas, who are a foamy foamy bunch, you are one of THE most beautiful women I have ever seen in my life. And I'm not just saying that to make you feel better - I commented on it to quite a few people over the course of the weekend, because It Is So. I'm slightly shocked at the possibility that you don't realise this. You're stunning.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

Please could the following people possibly email me their snailmail addresses? (to thingsinvisibletosee at gmail dot com)

The Empress

Deena

Emily & VW

Thank you!

Fay, I have sent snail mail address, as requested.

And, for once, I have not been beset uopn by the evil BIDs. For once. But, this?

you are one of THE most beautiful women I have ever seen in my life.

I am bookmarking should those demons ever ring me again. As well as all the other lovely compliments I received this weekend.

Oh Gosh. Look at me, I am Fay. Wheeeee!

I have decided to become an American because it is a Very. Good. Thing. My crisp English accent is in need of some good drawl, maybe a nice dose of Chicago... or perhaps a dash of Houston. Hmmm. A little 'New York' never did anyone any harm.

Also, Bless. Loves to all. Yes, Bless.

I feel that today is a good day for the lurid vermillion knickers. I do love them so. Perhaps, so that everyone else can enjoy them, I will just wear them on my head. Yes. Lovely. Bless.

I hav had a lovely time, but you people must really learn how to bake some nice savory meat pies. And make some decent black pudding. And Irn Bru. That would make things extra good. Jolly good, even. Have a gold star for trying.

Bless.

Oh, and I'm getting my hair dyed today. Black-blue, I think, maybe with a dash of green at the fringe. Well, it's not much of a fringe since I decided on using the clippers to make myself a nice mohawk last night. Still, when in Rome.

Bless.

Fay just doesn't seem herself today...

edit: BTW, what is behind the "legendary" thing? Genesis, svp?

It started for the F2F when Vortex and I were planning her birthday festivities. She announced that the night would be LEGENDARY and that she would be screaming that at various points in the night, and then high-fiving me. Which she did. And it was good. And then we yelled that a lot on Sunday. Which was also good.
