Hello, my name is SA, and Steph SUCKS.

Sucks, I tell you.

Perkins, on the other hand, is the bestest ever, especially since she can't think of anything mean/teasing about me.

Perkins, you're at it again, aren't you?

Teppy is going to kick yo' ass.

Who me? Would I do that?

I feel like a very bad hostess, since SA has already gone to bed, after a night of thrilling TV watching. I think we shall have to go have BIG FUN tomorrow to make up for it.

for those that went to dim sum, the New Asia Restaurant was on bay area backroads this weekend. Oddly, there were empty tables.

But the reason why Aimee should look into the DAR is scholarship possibilities for the young Princess.

I did and I can't join. She'll go to school on her modeling/ice skating/being evil and cute as hell scholarship.

Or, use the money from her college fund that her godparents started. One of those.

Sadly, the pictures of Em at Alcatrz did not turn out so well. Very dark and I haven't figured out how to lighten them up yet. Coz I is dumb.

Also? ALL YOUR SCOLA ARE BELONG TO US!!

He just left from hanging with Kristin, her friend Jen, Sean and Shari and of course, us. I was much fun and lots of laughing and no debauchery.

An Aimee that was no debauchery? I am not sure I believe in such a thing.

Aims, if you'd like me to work on the Em behind bars photos, I can do that. They'll make a nice companion to the Drunk Em photos

Aimee, I haven't done the Freedom Trail since I was a kid. I'd totally be up for that outing.

Me too! I'm excited about East Coast next year. My only request (which we really don't need to debate right now--just throwing out there to think about when we do begin the planning and pimping) is that we at least consider gathering in late June instead of late May. For those of us in academics, it would be a godsend to not have to sandwich the F2F into the end of the school year, finals, and sundry graduations.

I'm also going to propose that we decide on the *place* before we decide on the time. If we ended up in the Southeast, late June would be brutal. Northeast, late June would be idyllic. I wouldn't fight for late June if I knew we were going to Georgia, for example. Boston, though? Hell yeah.

ION, it was great hanging out with Tom and the Miracleborns and Sean & Shari tonight! I have to *sniffle* take Tom to the airport tomorrow. Phooey.

In terms of the whole "when did our ancestors get here" conversation, both my mother's and my father's families have been here since the late 1500's/early 1600's. I'm descended from Elder William Brewster on my dad's side (Mayflower) and have ancestors who fought in every single war this country's ever had. I even have my great grandfather's Civil War discharge papers from the late 1800's. I could care less about joining a society for any of this, though. For all I know, my revolutionary ancestors were the ones tripping over their muskets and falling into the Connecticut River.

Kristin, while "when is the weather better" is a resonable consideration, I think the primary operative one, up to now, has been "let's see who can come on the dates, since those are more likely to preclude people, and then those who can attend can decide on the where." Not that that can't change, but there is a logic.
