SA! I was just thinking about you -- clearing out the hideous mess that is our bedroom, I found your little present for Matilda and the sealed letter addressed to her on the occasion of her 13th birthday. Both will be on prominent, enticing yet not quite accessible display, to give her life a touch of mystery and secret benefactors and all that good stuff.
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

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

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Then I shudder to think of what Jager tastes like.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Argh.
Okay, my bad. I neglected to add in the bartender fee ($140) and the A/V fee ($75) when I was giving the estimates for Prom monies, plus, there's some nifty little taxes upon taxes I didn't know about. They're not much, but it adds up.
Upshot is, we're about $300 short. Because I screwed up, I would eat that, but I can't, as I am unemployed.
However, if I reduce the hosted bar to $800 instead of $1000, we're okay.
I don't want to make people pay much more. I don't want to have to say this at all, but so it goes. What are people's preferences here?
And, I am so sorry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I have no problem reducing the hosted bar, but I don't drink, so my preference is irrelevant.
And, I am so sorry.
It happens. Thanks for all the work you've done organizing this thing!

I'm a light drinker, so I would lean toward lowering the hosted bar, but I would say that wouldn't I?
I am fine with whatever resolution comes.

THANK GOODNESS.
I am fine with whatever resolution happens for the hosted bar.

Our wings are not tired.
Reduce hosted bar please.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Reducing the bar credit is certainly fine with me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't have a good sense of how many people will be there, so I can't make a rational weighing of alternatives. Ultimately, I'm okay with whatever wrt hosted bar.

Hosted bar=what is included? As long as there's a cash bar option following then that's fine by me.
