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

Oh, right.

I've been wanting to try out El Jefe if Mexican appeals. [link] But there's lots of options in the area, including shrift's earlier suggestions.

I loved the sign for El Jefe.

How did I not know about El Jefe? It's on the same city block as my office building! I walk past it all the time!

not your mom's socks.

Is anyone going to BEA/BookCon in NYC in late May?

Also I'm in Chicago for the Nebula thing, first weekend in June. Will be under a pile of SFWA cookbooks, mostly, but would love to see you.

There are some rumblings about me being in CA and other west-coast-like places come fall. Will keep you posted. See also (meep) MA, ME, NH, ...

(this isn't public yet. just heads up for b.org)

I'm down with el jefe!! What time works for you all? My schedule is completely open that day. Bob has meetings until about 5:30. I'm pretty sure he works in the same building you do, Shrift!

I posted this on FB, but I wanted to post it here as well to see if others are interested in the June-August departure for this Ireland Vacation with Airfare Dublin and Galway deal: [link]

Wow, that looks like an awesome deal, shrift! I'm sadfacing that I don't have the time or cash to take advantage of it. The only part of Ireland I ever saw was the airport in Shannon. The countryside around it was gorgeous, the greenest I'd ever seen.
