Nine pairs of shoes for two-and-a-half days. Too many? Just right? Maybe throw in another outfit or two?
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

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

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
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.

Our wings are not tired.
Mentioned in Natter my biggest issue is all my clothes seem to be sleeveless and short. I brought a couple of long jeans, and long sleeve shirts, but my dress is sleeveless. One pair of shoes in addition to the sandals on my feet, which is one more than I would usually pack! I had to put my sweater on when I exited the car, but it was quite hot in Tahoe.
Anyway, at The Line in room 419. My phone number is in my profile.
We are really looking forward to seeing everyone!

With a friend's advice I bought a puffer jacket in Seattle because I froze in the "summer"/"spring" weather you're having here. This jacket and my friends are the MVPs of this trip.
And I'm in one of the places on Lombard, let me know if anyone would like to have dinner tomorrow. I'm also free on Fri.

I’m wearing the same shoes all weekend. Nothing is going to stop me from only taking a carry-on.

I'd love to get together tomorrow, Shir. I'll touch base in the morning because I am still adjusting to the time difference tonight. Trying to stay awake until a reasonable hour tonight, like I did last night, and should be all in sync by tomorrow.

Yay, Laura! And best of luck with the time difference. My phone number is in my profile.
