I still can't find my email, but I put my dates on my calendar. I arrive Saturday at about 6:40 p.m., & I leave New Orleans the 22nd at about 2:25 p.m.
Yesterday, my life's like, 'Uh-oh, pop quiz!' Today it's like, 'rain of toads.'

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

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I mean, it sounds like dinner Sunday would work for a lot more people. Is everyone sending their info to Strix? And Strix, can you maybe make that a Google doc so it's easy to check and update?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I haven't been this excited about a trip I wasn't going on since, oh, 4th of July in Vegas.

Smonster do you still live on the street named for awesome indigenous peoples?

Also, because the vast majority of graves are above ground vaults, there's not that much dirt around. Especially in St. L #1.
Yeah, cemeteries aren't really all about dirt here.

She does, but she's on her third residence on said street, heh.
Shaya's not super fancy, but I can see your point there. If most folks are staying in the LGD, we could get beers and pub grub at the Avenue Pub (my local! Though it might be busy on a Friday night, it's hard to predict) or beers and food truck food at Courtyard Brewery. Both are walking distance from the B&Bs though I wouldn't walk them alone. (well, maybe to the Avenue.)
Another option is Barrel Proof, which is just up the block from Courtyard. It's a whiskey-focused bar with lots of beer (and all the other booze) and some awesome, awesome food from noted local chefs Kristen Essig (Meauxbar) and Michael Stolzfus (Coquette) in pop-up form called Little Bird.
Also in the area on Magazine, there's Juan's Flying Burrito and Lily's (Vietnamese).

I just wanted to get a general idea of where the hotel was in relation to youse guys, so I was able to check that. I could likely go straight from airport to Shaya Friday night as I won't have too much luggage (if you think it's the kind of place that will have room for a suitcase tucked near our table)? Otherwise I am up for any of those options you named (especially your local place!!) after setting my stuff at the hotel.

Nora, I was also thinking Ave Pub for Friday. Much more flexible.
Nanita, I live at the intersection of that street and Washington, if you want to key in closer.

and I live about three blocks closer to the B&Bs on Prytania than that.
Avenue Pub could be fun.

AVENUE! I have seen you guys posting about that place for eons on the Book of Face so it would be neat to see it in person.
