Fay, SF is anomalously cold for the region. On the upside, Seattle will be about the same temperature.
I'm imagining the photos of F2F with a whole bunch of people in tees, and Fay wrapped up like it's Winter.
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

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.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
Fay, if you're worried about looking put together, simply sit next to me. Everyone looks put together next to me. I dress with the colorblock method: I own as many solid-color articles of clothing as possible, then hope that the colors I choose to wear will work together.
See, it's the word 'treasured' that's got me worried. If they're some edition with emotional resonance for the person, I'd say don't bring them. We should stick to reading copies which people can hold onto without worrying about the binding, or something.
Good point, Pete. I'll see her this week (taped WW finale for her, so maybe she feels beholden), and determine the fragility of the books. If sturdy, I bring; if not, ah well.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Signed, Took 5 costume changes plus a vintage dress with full crinolines to Vegas with just one carry-on and no checked luggage.
It doesn't count if your carry-on luggage is a TARDIS.
Note, these are 5 costume changes in Vegas.

Our wings are not tired
Will someone be recording the Pooh readings for the enjoyment for those unlucky souls who won't be at the F2F?
At one point I had talked about setting up and doing a really nice recording, but the readings have ended up opposite the Winchester House trip, so I won't be able to.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I found my copies of A. A. Milne books.they were given to me when I was 3. Winne the Pooh is a fragile, but House at Pooh Corner is in good shape. now we are six and when we were very young are also in good shape.
I am glad Fay looked at the weather - I forgot there is a 15 degree difference in the weather . I have only vaguely thought about packing ( matt and I will be staying up there Friday and Saturday night)

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Would my wool peacoat be out of line for the trip to Alcatraz?

It's chilly out there. So I think that would be fine.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Would my wool peacoat be out of line for the trip to Alcatraz?
How chilly is Alcatraz? I keep thinking that if I pack things that are appropriate here, they should be fine there since it's a tad bit warmer there than here.
Wool coat seems excessive to me. Or is that just the warm-weather-acclimated-LAer needs warmer clothing?
