That way as y'all arrive, you can take the shuttle to the hotel. Once everyone is at the hotel, we can depart. Sound good?

That sounds BRILLIANT. Thank you so much! Woo!

There's no set time that I have to be back in Chicago on Sunday, so I'm content to wait & catch a ride with whoever.

I am sad like a very sad thing about all the folks who can't make it this year. You people, with your "vacations" and your "children" and other such excuses! I want more, more, more Buffistas!

I am sad like a very sad thing about all the folks who can't make it this year.

And we, or at least I, who can't make it am sad about not being there. I know I don't get enough Buffistas in my life. Definitely not enough Kate P.

Since I'm finally making it to one, I'm doubly bummed about the people who can't be there.

I'm hoping with my new job, not only will there be time to make next years, there hopefully will be budget too. In the meantime, sad I can't party with y'all this year.

Yeah, it's a bummer you can't join us this year.

Kate, Amyth and Smonster: insent. I reserved a hotel, and details are in the e-mail. YAY.

I finally made my hotel reservations for Madison--I'm going with the Sheraton.

java, I haven't seen an email from you yet... I'm assuming you sent it to my profile address (gmail)? That's the one I check most often.

I can't remember if I mentioned this anywhere other than LJ, but I'll be flying into San Jose with the SO this Sunday and then staying in Hollister, CA for the week. He has a class there Mon - Thurs and we fly home on Friday. The SO is in class all day and I'll be without a car, but if anyone is even remotely near(ish) and wants to hang, ping me in email.

We're heading into SF on Thursday after he gets out of class (June 12th). Current plans are dinner at Deb G.'s place that evening and then maybe a little exploring. Any joiners?

I know weeknights are difficult for most people, what with work and all, but I thought I'd mention it.

Cashmere, you're going to be closer to Downtown.
