Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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

Punishingly Intricate

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]

Weird! The world is so small sometimes!

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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That is so tempting, but I think my boss would kill me if I took a third big vacation this year.

The status is NOT quo.

I’m in a quandary. I know some people would like to gather in LA to celebrate ita’s life, but it sounds like a lot of people won’t be able to come. I also am trying to finalize my own summer plans, so I need to know for sure where we stand. I’d like to visit my dad in Florida, and I want to buy those plane tickets as soon as possible.

I don’t know if it makes sense to set something up this summer given how tenuous everyone’s plans are, so I guess I’m asking -- how serious are people about wanting to come out? And would a weekend in August be easier than July? Or should we postpone to some time this winter once a year has passed?

I personally wouldn't be able to come in either July or August. I have other travel in July, and in August I'll be back in the Midwest.

I would love to come, but I'd have to see how I'm feeling closer to the date.
