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.

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

While Madison is lovely during the warmer months, it's too close to people I prefer to avoid.

The first F2F was about three blocks from work for me. I was slightly nervous my bosses would run into me and wonder who were all the weird people I was hanging out with.

Depends on the airline and the city, but just about everything comes through Chicago first or whatever city is used for that airline's hub (Delta, for example, goes through Cincinatti.) If folks wanted to carpool it from Chicago for the sake of having a car, that would definitely be feasible. But the daily cost over the weekend and mileage could still make it more expensive than flying into Madison.

Milwaukee is also a reasonable place to fly in to to get to Madison. Either Chi or MKE are okay, we'd just need to plan things out a little more than usual.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Did anyone ever admit to bringing the Vietnamese vodka to the Atlanta hospitality suite? I ask because I finally tasted it. It's faintly reminiscent of hazelnuts. I looked it up and it turns out to be rice vodka, and, according to the distiller's website:

At the palate, a kind of softened and passionate flavour that pull us into ecstasy of happiness. The attractive yeasts mingle and intertwine with glutinous rice fragrance behind green bamboo ranges, beside the alluvial Red river holding lotus flavour in the ponds. Nep Moi taste intertwines and fascinates anyone who enjoys once to remember forever.

Were you pulled into an ecstasy of happiness?

I don't think she needed any pulling....

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I'd like either Madison or Nashville. Madison because I could probably schedule myself a couple weeks to come home and go to Kalamazoo in Michigan as well. and Nashville because that is pretty much my hometown, I have family and friends there, and it's a damn fine place to have some fun.

I like Madison. There are cheese curds and New Glarus Ale. Plus, it's a college town, so it will be cheap(er) I've been there twice, and I think I went direct from DC.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I just wanted to send out a thank you to all the DC'istas for their warm (scortching HAWT) hospitality while I was out there. Y'all rock like a rockin thing that rocks.
