You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

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

Well, I guess I’ll just have to visit Cincinnati this year.

Oh, no, Steph. That's just really crappy. I'm sorry.

Okay, still barfing. I didn't think I had anything left. This is gross. I'm so sad and angry.

Well, I guess I’ll just have to visit Cincinnati this year.

That would be delightful!

That's just really crappy.

Literally. The whole GI tract is a warzone. I had a doctor's appointment yesterday for a physical; Tim suggested I call them to ask if any of the staff has a stomach bug, because that's the only place I've been recently. I'll call them in the morning.

Awww, Tep. I'm sorry.

You and Tim are overdue for a San Francisco trip anyway. We'll get you two out here sometime this year, and you can stay in the Garden Apartment.

David, I'll hug you extra the next time I see you.

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

Oh, Tep, that’s awful. Staying home does seem like the best bad choice but it sucks rope.

Also, I should mention that someone (Vortex) has a birthday tomorrow. Not sure if she has plans yet.

I have plans for dinner, but thought maybe people would like to come to the rooftop bar at the Line afterwards?

I'm in room 319 at the Line. I've texted Laura and Brenda in case anyone wants to hang out or grab a beverage. I think that Maria gets in late, like 11:30

Our wings are not tired.

Vortex! Went up to the rooftop with Brenda to see if you happened to be there. Back in our rooms now. Since I am in 419 I'll stomp on the floor to say hi! Phone number in profile.

I'll be staying at the Grand Hyatt at SFO. I get in late tonight so will see people tomorrow! Since I am staying so south of the City, I will be wearing the same thing all day tomorrow so will likely be a little less dressed up than everyone else. Sunday I will be spending with my family, visiting my uncle who just entered hospice. I have a redeye Sunday night. Quick trip!

If I get in on time tonight, and have any energy, I'll text Vortex to see if people are hanging out on a roof or bar somewhere and come join you.

I have had terrible experiences using Flywheel but love Curb. I try to avoid Uber and the like, especially in SF. (I will say though that when I lived in Oakland I had a very hard time getting taxis and had to use Uber often.)
