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

I'm annoyed because a dress I ordered 4 weeks ago from eShakti has still not been shipped.
I ordered a dress from them in February that is not here yet. I sent an inquiry and they were like "it's coming!" Yeah, right.
Is anyone coordinating who is staying where? I meant to try to put something together, but I've had crush of work and found out last week that the business agreed to an SLA on responding to contract drafts (that I said NO to), so I've got to get those off of my desk before I leave.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I can put something together, if folks can email me. ( e DOT juliana AT gmail).
Also, for getting around SF, I highly recommend using the Flywheel app instead of using any rideshare services. Flywheel is Uber for taxis, basically, but the taxi drivers are much more knowledgeable about the City & there's no surge pricing. If you're planning to use public transit, Clipper & MuniMobile are the apps for tracking & paying for the transit (Clipper works all around the Bay, so you can use it for BART (our light rail). MuniMobile is for in SF only).

If you have an iPhone, you can add a Clipper card directly to the built-in wallet app, without having to download a separate app, or purchasing a physical card.

Nine pairs of shoes for two-and-a-half days. Too many? Just right? Maybe throw in another outfit or two?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
As long as "boots" is a separate category from "shoes," then 9 pairs of shoes is fine. Assuming, of course, you're bringing the standard 5 pairs of boots.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I have done some of the things!
I ordered four poster sized portraits on foam board from FedEx for pickup tomorrow.
We had trouble renting easels for the event, but I was able to buy five easels off Office Depot for almost half price ($22) which was way better than renting individual easels at $40, from a near-ish city (Brisband) and having to haul them to the event.
I need to do a few more collage posters of smaller pictures, which will have to go through Walgreens. But I can do that tonight for tomorrow pickup.
I have to give the AV Production people at the venue access to the Google folder I set up with music.
That's mostly it.
There will be a Livestream!
There will be a Buffista specific dinner that Saturday night as organized by Juliana, in North Beach! (details to come)

Amazing, David. Thank you for arranging the livestream. Truly.

100% JZ’s brother, Lukas, taking complete responsibility on it.
But, yes, I’m very glad we can do it.
Not just for Buffistas, but JZ’s friend Maggie who is housebound and her relatives in Greece.
Plus it will be YouTube live so anyone can access it after the event.
