So I'm mailing out the invitations to our July 31st - Aug 1st big summer party (aka the Wild Rumpus--relevant Press post here: KristinT "Sunnydale Press" May 29, 2004 3:25:48 pm PDT ) this weekend, and I have a request.
As explained in that post, DH and I make this summer party an annual thing for all of our friends, so it is usually quite big. Because of how much I have bonded with many of you and how much fun I had at the F2F, I opened the invitiation to Buffistas, and I've been thrilled at the response. I'm now trying to get everything organized, however, and I'm noticing huge gaps in my information. For example, I realized that I never asked for your addresses.
I know that not everyone feels comfortable sharing their "real life" personal info, and I respect that very much in normal b.org situations. if you're planning on coming to my home for this party, however, then you've already got all of mine. Maybe I'm being silly, but that seems a little...unbalanced? twitchy? Something that makes me uncomfortable.
Also, the invitations are purty, and they have directions to the house complete with pictures!
Keeping that in mind, I'm requesting that anyone who thinks they might like to come to please email me your basic contact info (board name, full name, and mailing address--cell number would be great too, though not essential)--which I promise to never share and to burn in a ritual fire once I'm done--so I can send you an invitation like the rest of the guests. Once you get the invite, you can RSVP to let me know the details of when you plan to arrive, if you need a place to crash, etc.
I apologize in advance for those who already gave me their info and for those who are having to email me for the umpteenth time! I think this will just be easier for me to keep everything organized. My profile addy is good for the email.
I am so excited to see you all!
Thank you again for allowing me to hijack Press to make this announcement.
ETA: I have addresses already for sj, Nora and DF, meara, Cass, vwbug, Jon B., Vortex, Nutty, Jen, Javacat, Theodosia, TrudyBooth, DX, Laura, Jessica, Hil, JohnSweden, DebetEsse, Emily, Lilty Cash, and ND. Thanks!

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

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Laistas, and those close enough be
The fantabulous Raquel will be in town soon, and oddly enough, I am having people over for brunch to celebrate that fact. Brunch will take place on Saturday, July 10th, starting at 11:00 and going to whenever.
Please let me know if you can make it, or if you need directions or anything, by July 5th.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Today's IMDb poll is relevant and interesting. And saddening.

The company that has my contract is looking for a Marketing Account Coordinator. You wouldn't be working with me (which could be considered a plus or a minus, depending), but you would be working with the more fiscally secure part of the company. The company is in Cary, NC. They're looking for a candidate with a couple of years ad agency experience, strong writing skills, the usual software packages, etc. If you would like more info, please contact me at my profile addy.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Happy birthday Joss!
My boyfriend's company is hiring. If any Buffistas in the L.A. area have tech skillz (or other skillz) and want or need a job, take a gander:
If you get hired, tell them A~n~d~r~e~w A~r~r~o~w sent you. He gets $500 or something. :)
Thanks, and sorry for the employment spam.

Has it already been announced here that SMG is going to be at San Diego Comic Con next month?
'Cuz apparently, she is.
Oh, and one of my co-workers, who apparently knows someone involved in organizing, told me "The Elf" is supposed to be there. But I haven't been able to substantiate that one yet. (Live in hope...)
