You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

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

So who all lives in and around LA now? I may be visiting soon.

Nashvillians, we're thinking of spending the night there March 23 (Friday), on a roads trip to points further south. I'd like to go see the Parthenon - anyone interested in meeting up Saturday morning, or having lunch? We need to be in Auburn AL by the end of the day, so probably would leave after lunch. Take to email?

Looks like I'll be in Boston Feb 26th - March 1st. The 27th-1st are pretty well scheduled, but the 26th is just a travel day. I'm supposed to arrive at 3:00pm on the 26th and am staying at the Boston Yotel.

Sounds like you probably won't get the chance to do much touristy daytime stuff like the museums and aquarium, but I bet localistas can find some fun things to suggest for any free time you might have. The stand-up comedy clubs make for a great evening out, as I recall. There's also a home Celtics game the evening of the 28th (and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the Bruins hosting Carolina on the 27th).

I'll be in Houston at the end of the month for 5 days, attending an old friend's birthday party. I've heard about the Art Museum, Rothko chapel, Space Center, and the bats that fly out from under the bridge. If there's anything else you recommend seeing or doing in Houston, I'd love to hear about it, here, profile addy, or fb. Eta: Do we have Houston people? If you'd like to get together, that would be good.

The Space Center is almost to Galveston, so it's quite a hike out of the city. I don't know what the transportation situation is, although I'd imagine there are companies that take you back and forth. It will probably take most of a day, all in all.

You'll be by the Menil when you're at the Rothko, and the Menil is worth doing.

If you want trashy Tex-Mex, eat at Chuy's. I recommend the fish tacos. If you want more authentic, see if you can get to the original Ninfa's on Navigation.

Rice is in the Museum District and is worth a drive or walk through.

If you end up having any free time during the day, I'd love to meet up. Otherwise, you'll be right across the way from the Institute for Contemporary Art, so that's a no-brainer.

Meeting up would be great. It would probably have to be the evening of the 26th. I don't think I'll have any other time.

I don't know if that evening will work for me, but keep me updated if your schedule opens up at all.
