Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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

Juliana & Brenda already said it. The deadline is just for having a room near the rest of the Buffistas, not the deadline for the room rate.

Juliana; what is the deadline for the room rate?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm paraphrasing the argument that swayed me when I was dithering between the f2f and fiscal responsibility...

20 years from now what will you rememeber, that you became fiscally responsible a couple months sooner, or that you attended one hell of a party?

Assuming you remember the party ....

Given the deadlines and all, looks like I won't be making it this year. ::weeps::

Boo! I'm finally going, and I want to meet EVERYONE!

Speaking of which, I finally got TCG to figure out how many days he could take off, and we booked the hotel from Thursday night until Monday morning.

Thanks, Frank! I was trying not to take killing the thread personally.

Definitely don't. The response times on this thread are very intermittent.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Java cat, i tried to email you about sharing a room, dunno if spam filters ate me. you still looking for a roomie?

I'm thinking friday and saturday night, i'm still waiting on my gorrum work supervisors to tell me when my shift change is happening, but i give them 12 hours more before i just say screw it, i requested the days off and they darned well better not have a problem with it. So i'm late, but will send funds as soon as i figure out how to use paypal, and will make a reservation myself if i have to but really really really would like to be sharing a room!
