We were sad to have missed you too, Java.
I am so taking you to celebrate once this does ship.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!

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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I'm sorry I missed you too, Java. And doubly sorry that it was due to work suckage. Let me know if you want to see a show Thursday or Friday. I'm sure I could get you in.
ION, I am working in a hemp house! Old school! Old school with wireless!

Our wings are not tired.
Seeing a show on Thursday would be awesome! Also, since the behemoth is finally shipping TODAY, I am taking Thursday off and am going to be downtown on Thursday for a Noon lecture (at the Commonwealth Club), so maybe we could meet for coffee or something before or after? I hafta meetya!

Hey, as I recall, Perkins is coming to DC. I was crazy busy during the planning stages, can someone fill me in on the details?

I am! You had some email at the vortex account about that.
I get there Wednesday 10/29, leaving Tuesday 11/4, with a side trip to Baltimore on Saturday.
We were thinking Bistrot du Coin on Sunday for a group dinner, I think.
I also pinged MFNLaw, and she wasn't sure about making it on Sunday but thought maybe Monday would work for her for an additional dinner.

Cool! I know I'm usually planner girl, but I was late to the party, and you guys seemed to have it in hand. I was afraid I'd be out of town, but I'll be around for either or both.

Cool! I vote both!
I'll call Bistrot du Coin for a reservation in a week or two I guess.

That might work! I have rehearsal at 1pm and I hope not to have too much work to do before that. I may have to let you know on Wed evening.
I'll certainly look into tickets. If anyone else is interested let me know.

Others:
1 anti-anywhere hot
4 anti-Arizona
1 anti-Alaska
The Hellmouth and Back Of Beyond were also brought up. The rest of the responses were either pro-anywhere or pro-PNW.
Okay - Seattle seems to have won the informal poll by an overwhelming margin. Should I put it up to an official vote, or are people okay with that?
If we do not put it to an official vote, I'll go ahead with the polling with the July dates added in, narrow it down to 2 or 3 weekends, and vote from there. How does that sound?
