Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

'First Date'


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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Wait, when is the NC leg? I'll just be finishing up with Nashville, probably, I wonder if I could do that?

Which also means, aww, Kate, you'll be gone when I'm there, then! Is it just you and Rose going or is it the whole fam?

Oh, and LA! I am in you this next week! Ventura mostly, but I should get back into LA proper Sunday night (the 19th) through Wednesday the 22nd. Dinner?

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

Chicago?

I'll be in tech so I'd be a poor host, but I could certainly find some time to be social.

Thrive to spite them

I am going to make this happen with my schedule.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Which also means, aww, Kate, you'll be gone when I'm there, then! Is it just you and Rose going or is it the whole fam?

Just Rose and me. But I'm sad to miss you! Although I am somewhat mollified by the knowledge that you'll soon be living here, so.

You mentioned upthread that you might be arriving around the 16th; has that changed? We're gone the 20th-24th but will be around both the weekend before and the weekend after.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

If anyone would like to spend the better part of a day tooling around beautiful Suisun Valley and drinking wine with me, 12 wineries are taking part in this year's Passport Sunday on 4/23/17: [link]

Our wings are not tired.

Dammit that is so up my valley but I'll be on a plane!

not your mom's socks.

NYC-adjacent Buffistas, I am in Brooklyn on 3/11 - with HPF and DH. I have some programming things, but would love to check in!

LA-istas, HPF & I get in around 2pm to LAX on 3/28, I have a dinner event on 3/29, I forgot there was an extra day between Wednesday and Friday so we have some time there (and am hoping to see LOTS of people & sprog), and then I've been assigned 2 panels at Wondercon on 3/31 in the afternoon. We fly home at 8:30am on Saturday. Who wants to play & when? I'm happily beholden to USC for some time, the rest? Open to suggestions.

So it looks like I can arrive in Cincinnati on Tuesday, 3/28, evening, or Wednesday, 3/29, morning.

Where can I stay? What can I do? When can I meet people?

We are probably not going anywhere that week after all, because our roof is leaking ($$) and honestly surviving life is all I am up for right now. You can stay with me if you are comfortable staying in a family environment (I mean, I should probably check with my husband to see if that's okay but I can't imagine why not. I'd put you in my son's room. How do you feel about the Lego Millennium Falcon and Arduino? Because that's the decor.) If not I can recommend both B&B scale places or hotels. We'll be on spring break that week, so I am not working and the kids are off school. We could go to the Zoo, the Cincinnati Museum Center/Hall of Justice, that sort of thing.
