I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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

So wonderful, and I've just been to see juliana and the Peanut too.

Now I'm going to hang in North Beach for a while until I go see shrift. Phone is in my profile in case anyone is randomly around. Ok, unlikely. But I'm glad I got to squeeze out what little time I could this trip.

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

So happy to see you & so sad we had to run! Babies, man.

I have to be in Apple Valley from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM for a fricking soccer tournament. So no brunch for me. Bereft.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh, Jessica! I think maybe the best thing would be I give you my phone # and we play it by ear a bit as noon looks bad, but depending on homework we could meet up at Griffith park.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Unfortunately our flight Sunday is really early in the morning - we'll be checking out of the hotel around 6.

It sounds like later would be better for most people? Maybe a late brunch,like 1:30?

Kat,so bummed to be missing you!!

Good combo! Sounds very civilized.

Later would be easier for me, I'd probably have my kids with me

Jessica, I tried to email you but the link didn't work, so check your FB messages. It'd be useful to keep in touch in case I am either running late or unable to make it.

Sorry guys, we got a really late start today! Hotel bed was too comfy.

There's no way we can make 1:30 for brunch, but I'll keep checking in and see where people are at. DH and I just got to Griffith Park, about to walk up to the observatory.
