Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

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.

Greetings from Seattle! If anyone would like to meet and do something tomorrow night, on Wed or on Thu, let me know? My number is in profile and WhatsApp and Signal are good.

Shir is in the US and NY and SF in May? I thought it was June! I considered planning a trip to the PNW to intersect with Shir in Seattle because there's a thing I might yet attend on Lummi Island on June 13.

> "Seattle and SF localistas: I'll be in Seattle from 5/6-10/6, and in SF from 13/6-20/6 (flying back home on that day)."

Thanks for responses above re Edgefield F2F possibility. I'll take that off my mental checklist. Highly recommend checking it out / staying there if you are in Portland though.

I'm out of the way in central Marin, but if anyone needs a free place to stay over May 18 weekend (or any time, really), my extra BR is free. Extra car now, too, which I'm willing to loan as long as you're proficient driving a stick shift.

Oh dear, I'm so sorry for typing the wrong dates there (can you please tell me where that post is so that I'll fix it?).

However: I am in Seattle right now, at meara's! Tomorrow evening there is a dinner planned with Plei and another friend of mine - let me know if anyone would like to join, and I plan to hang out with the non Buffista but still a cool friend tomorrow. Today is flexible and free - I only have an online class to catch up on. From Friday and in the weekend I'll be in Port Townsend.

I'll arrive to SF on the 13th. Plans are already scheduled with Hec for the 14th - if anyone wants to meet until the 18th, let me know! I'll be working two days during that week, but I'm flexible on when these two days will happen.

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

I will be in Seattle the week of the 13th but my calendar is rapidly filling up with work things and so I will probably have to save extra socializing for when we're all in SF that weekend.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Since people have been introducing me to good local food here I've been plotting a revenge. And by revenge I mean that if there is ever ceasefire and one or more of you will come, there are places that I need to introduce you to. Places such as these: [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] and other places in East Jerusalem and the Market come to mind.

Just sayin'.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

All set for San Francisco.

Staying near the Majestic as they were booked. Just a few blocks away at the Epik.

Important pre-packing question - is there anyone staying at the Majestic next weekend who can help me with a corset on Saturday night?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I’m your gal!

Excellent! Faire garb it is!
