So are there any infant tatoo parlors that serve alchohol in the area?

F2F 4: Too Much Candy, Never Enough Mojitos.
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.
omg.
wine.
Californian wine.

...it is only now striking me that I will be in a country with good wine!!!!!!!!!!
Don't talk to me about Egyptian wine. It has improved over the course of the past 3 years. That is the best that can be said for it. Muslim country. Say no more.
Can I do a combo pedi/mani too, please?
Kristin, I will have to see about this when I call back. It should work out, especially since I made extra manicure and pedicure appointments, but I want to wait until more people have chimed in with what they want before I call back to make changes.
I think I like this place.
Like I said. Cool place.
Perkins, you are the rockingest. Thanks for setting up the appointments!
Perkins, no problem. If it doesn't work out, just a pedi is totally fine.
Perkins, I'd love a mani and brow tweeze, but I won't get to the hotel until 2-ish. How far is the hotel from this place?
Well my F2F already started as I spent the morning and early afternoon with Nora and her friend L.
I collected them from the downtown Hilton after doing the Emmett school run, and we went to breakfast at Zazie. Sat outside in the back, blue sky and breezy. Nora and I both had the Crab Dungeness Eggs Benedict and then split a Gingerbread pancake with lemon curd.
After that I took them down Haight Street and we hit La Rosa and Ambiance and Kid Robot and Booksmith and Wasteland and that actually took a good long time. So when we got to the brewpub Magnolia at Haight and Masonic we stopped there for a beer.
After that refreshment we walked down to Divisadero, and I took them up the cool block and showed them stores like the estate sale place (where I bought Teppy a present) and Cookin' - Used Gourmet Appurtenences. And Nora and L. wrung their hands and were sore tempted by the vintage Le Creuset and discount prices and the spiff grinders and dishes and old cookbooks and whatnot.
Then I showed them where they could get prosthetic limbs, and we walked down to the Lower Haight where I left them at Toranado to get some more fancy beer.
I would describe our pace as "leisurely."
How far is the hotel from this place?
Chikat, Google puts it at just under three miles:
eta: Everyone else who wanders by, let me know if/what you are interested in, and I will call them back tomorrow to see what we can work out.
Perkins, I could desperately use a pedicure if there are still slots available.
