LAistas: Emily is staying with us this week — we are planning to do dinner with Buffistas at either Granville or Barragan's on Saturday night, Jan. 5. I posted in the FB group, also. If you'd like to join us, send me a message or comment here so I can make a reservation.

Btw, Epic, I know we chatted elsewhere, but sorry we couldn't make Universal work in December. You're welcome to join us Saturday, but that would be a heck of a drive for you. Just let me know.

cobbling together a start-list of places I'll be in the spring around nextbookthings...

- Doylestown 4/9
- Salt Lake City 4/14-15 are there buffistas here I forget?
- Denver 4/16-17 SuziQ are you still here?
- NYC some now and then, including 5/9-11 I think
- DC/Takoma Park [WORKING ON IT SPARKY SHEESH]
- LA 5/20 -- this is complex juggling and I am hoping to do some school visits so if you are Pix or Kat and this is of interest and you're not already out for summer, hmu

WORKING ON IT SPARKY SHEESH

HARUMPFT.

Let me know if/when that DC/Takoma Park thing happens, ok?

Sheryl - absolutely. Also LAistas, the bookstore is asking if I have friends in the area

So for Bay Area Buffistas (and visiting Lisa Harbin!) the plan now is to meet up at Citrus Club (asian noodles) on Haight Street at 7pm to have dinner with Bonny.

Do we have any idea how many people might show up?

Citrus Club 1790 Haight St San Francisco, CA 94117 b/t Cole St & Shrader St

I pinged Sylvie and she's coming.

Lisah is coming.

shrift has a migraine so she is not. Get well shrift.

Please give everyone my fond regards. I read this at 7:49 board time and I've had an exhausintg day, but I will raise a glass to all of you from home in the rainy hills.

Yeah I didn't know this was happening until after it's happened apparently.

I'm sorry - it wasn't so much planned as cobbled together at the last minute.
