New preview of Serenity going on May 26. Check Firefly thread for details; some tickets available in some cities as I post.
So, I'm going to be in NY this weekend, and I figure if I want to do things I should start planning. There's so much to do that I'm feeling overwhelmed, but I do want to meet Buffistas. I was thinking a brunch-y thing maybe on Sunday, and afterward whoever had the time or inclination could "show me the city". Or something. If people are interested, email me at my profile addy, and I'll try coordinate.

Free books on offer. Comment and ye shall receive.
Moonlit and I are now officially living in sin.
Thus, I am now a neo-Victorian.
If you are flying into the New Orleans Airport this weekend and plan to take the shuttle, you will need to reserve it ahead of time. It's very inexpensive (far less so than a cab, even if shared), and it's easy to do. Here is the link: You have to reserve it. Here is the link to do so: [link]
If you have a minute to take a 20-question survey about online dictionary use, I surely would appreciate it ... the survey is here: [link]
I'm giving away five shiny new dictionaries to random respondents ... and you can feel free to forward this to all and sundry.
Thanks so much!
My dance group Three Left Feet/Thrir Ventri Foetr is performing Saturday at Maryland Faerie Festival. We're on at 3. If you're interested, I'll see you there!
(G also has a concert there at 10:30 am)
As many of you know, my friend Pamela is a two-time survivor of Hodgkin's disease. She was diagnosed in August 2002 and went through six months of chemotherapy. The Hodgkin's returned (and I had my meltdown that Buffistas, and the Bitches in particular, helped me through) in December 2003 and she had a stem cell bone marrow transplant in Seattle (where the Seattle-istas gave the very Buffista gift of life by donating blood, even) at the Hutch. She is doing well now though spending less time than she would like, which would be all day, surfing due to a pesky new job thing. She is also; well I will let you read...
I'm helping the Oregon Leukemia and Lymphoma Society with a new event for 2005. As you might know, the Society is a non profit group dedicated to fighting leukemias and lymphomas. I am a 34-year-old two-time Hodgkin's survivor, so fighting these diseases is very close to my heart. Recently, funds from the Leukemia and Lymphoma society were directly responsible for Dr. Brian Drucker's discovery of Gleevac, which is a life saving drug for thousands of leukemia patients each year.
You can help me out in several ways. You can contribute to the campaign at (her site). Any amount helps, and I really mean that every five dollar donation is important. This campaign is a competitive effort in Oregon to see who can raise the most funds for the Society in a set time period, and I'd love to win this event because the Society is so important to me. All donations are tax deductible, and you will receive a receipt for your tax records. Trust me, the Society can use your donation in a better way than Uncle Sam!
There are some additional ways that you can help me out with this campaign. The most important one is just to spread the word about it. You never know who will be looking to donate for a great cause, and my friends can really help with getting the word out about the Society event.
Another way you can help me out would be if your company makes a percentage of profits donation on a monthly or quarterly basis (ask your HR person, or email me your company info and I will happily do ask about it). You can have the donation directed it to the Oregon Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. For any company donations, I would be honored to list the company on my website and to list your company name in any written information related to the event.
Thank you so much for your support over the past few years, and I really appreciate your taking the time to read this email! With thanks and love, Pamela
