You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

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’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I pounced on Kate while she was busy listening to messages which I had cagily left on her phone. Pete reports that I "scampered" up to them when I got them at the airport. I dispute this categorically. It was more of a gambol.

OK, HAR. BTW Hec, I forgot to tell you I did finally get your voicemails entreating L and myself to meet you outside the hotel on Tuesday. I'm sorry I wasn't more reachable! It all worked out though, right!?

Went to dinner at Brandy Ho's and then wandered up North Beach to City books. Then up Columbus and down either Grant or Greene, and ended up passing by Grant & Greene and the MONKEY NOODLE BAR which I wish we'd have poked around to find before having Hunan. (though it was delicious)

Went and listened to great jazz at Pearl's. I only really cried once in public. It was a good night. Then we came back to the hotel and I availed myself of the very convenient 24 hour curry place open across the street from the hotel (the Hilton, not the HICC). Man, I love this town.

Also, Tom is DRUNK. Which is funny.

I am just getting to bed! Because, see, because... the 24 hour curry place! And the... stuff. Oops, time for bed.

Hee! It's just funny talking to you as you go to bed and we get up.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yes. It is funny.

Okay, I am packed except for bathroom things that I need to use in the (later) morning. Directions are noted. Flight times and stats are in my phone. Buffista phone numbers are in my phone. Cats need care in the morning. Dishes are started with extreme apologies to my downstairs neighbors because after the washer barfed water everywhere I am loathe to leaving appliances on when I leave. Papers to return rental car are in my purse. Hope everything is fixed and fast with my car so I can pick that up after ditching the rental and hie me to the airport. I even packed an umbrella (from China) and have my coat by the door so I am prepared for water falling from the sky.

I am not sure if I budgeted time to stop here in the morning though so see you all in San Francisco.

Our Internet is not cooperating, so I'm taking that as a sign that I need to get my ass in gear. See you all in SF!

On tomorrow's list:

  • Tell mom that Buffistas are F2Fing this weekend in San Francisco.
  • Call parents and mention absolutely nothing about San Francisco or the fact that Buffistas really do exist.

Is anyone at the hotel still up? I'm wondering if the rooms have hair blow-driers.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

I get a prezzie??

It's wee.

recoils. considers. uncoils, warily.

...I trust we are being Scottish here. Yes. If I'm wrong, lie to me.

bounces wakefully

...so nobody else is up, then? 4.49. Hmm. Should probably go back to sleep for a couple of hours...but I did get more than six hours sleep, which is my usual amount.

Hmm.

'kay then.

SAN FRANCISCO, BAYBEE!!!!

It is a wee gift, in that it is small, tiny and of no actual significance. I promise.
