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.

I could definitely put together a dance playlist for the Prom! Or more mellow music for just hanging around in the hosp. suite.

I have just added a lot of stuff to the F2F page [link] It has many things to do in Atlanta, transportation information, prom information, Georgia law and assorted commentary. I am planning to add directions to my house and more of a map of the area around the hotel. Is there anything else you want to know? If you're interested in clubs, I'll have to consult my sources.

Oh, man, I'm loving the thought of Martinis at IMAX. Too many options!

Reminder: brunch for libkitty at my house this Saturday. If you aren't already on the BayAreaBuffistas list, ask Jon if he could set you up, then read recent past messages. Reminder of my quasi-Luddite status -- no computer at home. I'm taking off work Wed.-Fri. to squire libkitty about, so no work computer until next Mon.

So I’ve booked my flight for my San Francisco apt. hunting trip! I arrive late afternoon on Thursday May 3rd and leave Monday morning May 7th. I’ll probably spend that first night with the friends I’m staying with, but if any Buffistas are up for getting together Friday night or on the weekend, let me know.

Me, me! Assuming nothing comes up, as it did with DJ.

So, I'm leaving this Saturday, and my access to the board will be intermittent and limited. When I get into Atlanta next Friday, is there a person I should try to get in touch with at that point? I know the hospitality suite will be there, but I'm not sure how else to get in conatct with folks. I'm not doing the Shakespeare thing, as I'd rather take a wander around after the driving and all, and I'll probably want some chill-out time, but I figured there might be some kind of group outing afterwards (or does it go really late?).

Also, is there a fridge in the HS, and, relatedly, are there any wacky liquor laws in Georgia (like can't buy beer except by the case at special stores a la Pennsylvania)?

Thrive to spite them

Frank, I won't be doing the Shakespeare thing. Ginger added a link about Georgia laws -- basically no alcohol sales on Sundays (except in restaurants), liquor is only sold at liquor stores and beer and wine are sold at grocery stores.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Brenda, insent (Paypal).

So I decided to fly to Atlanta. I'll be arriving Thursday and leaving on Sunday. Brenda, do you want flight info, or just arrival and departure times?

I made my reservation too late to get the really cheap fares. Oddly enough, the cheapest I could find included car rental in addition to the airline ticket (yes, the total price was cheaper than any fare I could find without the car), so I won't need a ride to/from the airport.
