Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

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

I'm probably around for dinner. I don't really stay in hotels here, sadly, so I'm bad for recs.

Punishingly Intricate

We stayed at two different Kimptons in Seattle when we were there in Sept 2013. Both very easy airport access via public transport. I'll have to check with Bob to see which ones we liked better but they were both nice!! & centrally located.

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

I will need to know this too since I plan to hang out in Seattle pre-Sasquan in August. I remember the F2F was at a Kimpton, but I'll have to see how expensive places are.

I know the Kimpton we stayed at for the F2F in 2009(?) was very nice. I don't remember the exact address, but it was within walking distance of all the downtown shopping, Pike's Place, etc.

I would totally do dinner!

The Kimptons are nice, but it's probably cheaper to stay down near the airport. Will you have a car, or be using transit?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Seattle F2F was at the Hotel Monaco on 4th - not cheap, but nice.

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

We seem to be narrowing in on Feb 21 for a Chicago gathering. Brenda, are you available then? Anyone else we haven't heard from?

Is there a preferred time of day? And the question of what we want to do still stands. (I'm a terrible social coordinator. Help me out here.)

I'm going out of town in the AM on the 21st. [Meeting meara in Mexico!] The 20th I could be there. But if that doesn't work for others, I will be there in spirit.

Plei and Meara - profile addies good? Dinner sounds fantastic on March 1.

PC I'll let you know what I find.

I ended up doing a travelocity deal where you see where you'll stay after you agree to the price. Was hoping for near the space needle or the market. I got a place near the stadium, but hopefully it will be easy transit to wherever... still, pretty affordable? [famous last words, right?]
