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

Ahahahaha! It's more anti-FQ, really, than anti-rest of downtown.

It's all about the logistics of navigating the city and the fact that lots of residents (regardless of length of life here) think the FQ is not a fun place to hang out, so it becomes a natural barrier.

Oh, sure. Though I do miss O'Flaherty's pub, which was on Toulouse near Decatur, and was an awesome place to hear live Irish music.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Gary and I went to O'Flaherty's to see Beth Patterson one time we were in New Orleans.

Yep, that's where I saw her the first time.

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

O'Flaherty's isn't there anymore? Although my pub was the Kerry.

No, Katrina killed off O'Flaherty's, though I think they'd had some challenges before that.

Aw, sad. I probably knew that at some point.

Yeah I get that. I stayed at Elysian randomly when I had a business trip and there was some big convention in town so the Marriott was booked. The hosts were amazing and the price was right, so it has been my go-to in NOLA ever since. I recognize that there are other options near our peeps, but EFI is great.

Our wings are not tired.

We are now booked at Prytania Park for arrival Thursday and departure Sunday. I didn't make any airline reservations because I don't know if Brendon will be in NY or FL at that time. But we will be in NOLA for the weekend via some direction.

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

If I were to take a trip the last weekend in October, what would be some pros/cons of NYC, New Orleans, or Maine?
