Ah, I see it.
DH's work is gonna get in the way. Do I dare go by myself?
You know, I think I do.
Eep.
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Eeee! We get the -t! Maybe we should change it to t- since the DH can't come.

The status is NOT quo.
-t, I can tell you from personal experience that it is just as much fun to go to a F2F sans spouse. My first F2F was in DC when I was still (mostly) happily married, and I was really scared to go since I'd only joined the board a few months earlier. I ended up having a blast. I mean, great if the spouse can come, but it seriously won't impact your fun if he can't.
Have I mentioned lately how utterly envious I am of everyone who can go? I'm still trying to figure out a way to finagle a trip there, but I'm not seeing it between the fact I get home from the camping trip with the 9th graders on Friday night and start teaching Shakespeare on Monday. Plus there's that whole lack of money thing. Phooey. I haven't missed a F2F since DC.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Mi madre will be here for a week-long visit, and she leaves right before I'd have to fly out. I just can't swing it this time, which is very sad-making. I was looking forward to terrorizing the bars with Vortex again.

Being at the F2F by myself I know will be fine - it'll be y'all, after all. It's the travelling to and fro that's iffy. I don't even know why, I used to travel by myself all the time and loved it. Out of practice, I guess.
Heh. This'll be my first F2F where I'm NOT a localista. Wacky.

And I was thinking there were some Atlanta bars that needed to be terrorized by juliana and Vortex.

Yay, -t! I will also be sans spouse.
My DH told me that he'd rather not F2F -- not that he doesn't love the Buffistas he meets -- but the fella does love his Frisbee tournaments, and there's one that weekend he wants to play in.

Clearly what we need to do is have Vortex and me get paid to terrorize bars. The amusement factor alone would bring in a lot of people, right??

well, we know that we can get stupid boys to pay us to make out, does that count?
