Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Hey Ginger, I posted in Facebook, but Tom and I are heading to Atlanta today. We drive up today, and drive home on Monday, and I have an event on Saturday, but Sunday is clear for hanging out. I'm making tentative plans with another lady blogger who lives there (Hey Brewtiful) for lunch/brunch, if you'd like to join us, or if you'd prefer something more chill, we can hang out with just you Sunday night. You can also hit me on my profile address. Would REALLY love to see you!

I'd love to see y'all. Either brunch or later would be fine. Where are you staying?

We're at the Holiday Inn Express N-Perimeter Mall area, which appears to be the northernmost point of the 285 ring. We're thinking about heading down to Decatur to the Brick Store Pub for some food and beverage in a little bit, if that's close by to you. Gonna make it an early night, we have to check in for judging and stewarding early in the morning tomorrow.

The Brick Store Pub is pretty near me, and it's where I would have suggested we go Sunday night, if we did that. I don't think I'm up for going out tonight, though. Let't figure out Sunday.

Yeah, just read Bitches.

I'd love to hang in that neighborhood on Sunday night - there's a bunch of cool stuff and the Brick Store looks like a place that I should go to more than once.

There is a bunch of cool stuff. Also, a couple of miles down the street, there are [link] and the wacky this [link] Or I can join y'all for brunch, particularly if you're worn out from being sick.

I'll touch base Sunday morning via email, see what's what. Can't wait!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I wasn't free yesterday, but I'm up for a gathering.

The next 3 weeks are pretty open for me. We should see what works for everyone.

I'd love to come down if you have a gathering, just not the weekend of Feb 6-8; I've got weekend tickets to the comic con here. If I have to miss a gathering of Chicagoistas, though, I will still raise a drink in your direction.
