Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm pretty sure we're now a Lush affiliate! (There's some form I'm supposed to fill out, but these links should work now....) Lush Bath Bombs Free Sex Bath Bomb Desperate Housewife Gift Set

Just a quick poll about F2F Prom attendance so that Deb can estimate food/drink needs:

[EDIT: This is a headcount, so if you are bringing a guest, please vote twice so that they get counted. Thanks!]

Now tagless for your comfort.

If anyone would like to help my SiL out on a college course and fill out a (VERY SHORT) survey on diversity (by tonight), please email me at my profile addy.

Thanks, everyone who responded! My sister in law waited until the last minute to do this assignment and your responses helped a great deal.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

After a short break, the newest installment of my column, "How To Succeed As A Failing Writer" is up:

Come together … Right now -- Err, over pizza: Cross-genre conversation and all that jazz.

Enjoy!

The SF2F Buffista Swag Store is now open for business. I'd say about 90% of all products have now been added -- if you don't see something you want, let me know in the F2F thread and I'll try to make it happen.

All products have been marked up $1, with proceeds (if they exceed $25, which is the minimum necessary for Cafepress to send me a check) going towards the F2F fundage.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I just stumbled across this:

Seeking Book Donations

The New Orleans Public Library is asking for any and all hardcover and paperback books for people of all ages in an effort to restock the shelves after Katrina. The staff will assess which titles will be designated for its collections. The rest will be distributed to destitute families or sold for library fundraising.

Please send your books to:
Rica A. Trigs, Public Relations, New Orleans Public Library, 219 Loyola Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70112 If you tell the post office that they are for the library in New Orleans, they will give you the library rate which is slightly less than the book rate.

We are conducting a poll to determine what food will be served at the F2F Prom:

Food poll

Food results

Bear in mind that we will need to spend about $1000 on food (assuming a $500 bar tab) in order to get the suite comped, so there will probably end up being about 8-9 trays of stuff total.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I will be headlining a performance for the first time in 15 years on Thursday, April 13. I've got a fantastic accompanist and the venue is a ukulele factory so there are so many reasons to come! Details here:
