Chicagoistas, I'm going to be in your fair city for my birthday at the end of July, and would like to plan a big ass party. My friend that was helping with the planning has had to back out, and I need a Chicago point person. Would any of you be willing to help me out with this?
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

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.

We are going to leave Sunday late afternoon to have an arrival home in the wee hours and be here to get the kids off to school on Monday.
Oops! That lets me out on convoying down to Miami since I'm booked through Monday morning at the hotel. Want to meet up for dinner once I make Florida coastfall early that week?

Matt, I'll give you directions to my place so you can hit Delray Beach before heading down to Miami. I'm about 50 miles north. We'll make plans when I see you in Atlanta. In a few days! Whee!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

My summer job puts me in Michigan for all of July. Otherwise, I'd love to help.

Waves from the road.
So I'm on the second day of my road trip to the F2F. Spent last night in Brooklyn with a side trip into Manhattan for drinks and dinner. Today I drove to Columbia, MD, and spent the afternoon/early evening wondering around Baltimore, mostly around Fells Point and the Inner Harbor. I didn't realize the police station at Fells Point had a sign honoring "Homocide: Life on the Street".
Tomorrow I'll spend the day in DC (which I've never been to before). Then it's off to North Carolina (Durham, to start with). I'm enjoying the trip down. Not sure I'm looking forward to the trip back (which will be significantly shorter in duration but the same in mileage).
I wish I had time to see Buffistas along the way, but it was a chore and a half to coordinate all that I'm doing on this trip so far, and there are a couple of old friends I won't have time to see on the way.
Atlanta-ward, ho!!!

Frank, if you were in Fell's Point yesterday afternoon, we were blocks from each other!
(See you in Atlanta!)

DCistas, I'd like to remind you that my birthday is Friday, May 11, and I'd like to get together to celebrate with some of my favorite people. So put it on your calendar and we can get together for dinner.
