F2F Seattle, 2009. IJS.
I love this idea. Unfortunately, have you met me and my lack of planning skills? I outsource planning events to another part of the Goth Hivemind. The keeper of that part of the Hivemind is pregnant (yay!), and admits she's lost her brain (boo!).
Waitaminute ... didn't people mention something about long-distance planners?
(Goes back, re-reads some of the thread)
AH-HA!
"Vortex already said she'd do it if meara would be point person. IJS."
Awesome!
(But...in July, so I can come too!)
Okay!
Vortex also said she was drunk, so I really don't know if she was joking or not. The offer is appreciated though, drunken or not.
Yeah
IF
Seattle hosts F2F 09, then I think July is a necessity. Good weather is much less likely before July 4th, and I'm sure an 80 degree summer day would be like mid spring to some of you poor people.
Whee! And July almost guarantees that we US teacher types could go!
Definitely later F2F dates work better the further north we go. Madison was beeyoutiful in late June this year.
You guys lucked out this year. It's been unseasonably cool all year. It did work out quite well, though, even the rain held off for the main days of the F2F! And after I was worried that it was going to put paid to the whole thing by washing all the roads and airports out, it was nice to see the weather being so agreeable. Don't expect it to ever be so accomodating again!
Vortex and I can be co-long-distance planners. We're good at that kind of stuff, and I'm already planning one event in Seattle next year.

YES!
(I love the idea of a Seattle F2F. Just don't make me be the planny-person.)
Wait, what other event is Juliana planning for Seattle?
Or is it seekrit?
While I may have been drunk, I am willing to long distance plan , with appropriate point people.
