This is a time of celebration, so sit still and be quiet.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

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

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Not for me, and it sounds like not for Hil either, so let's go with 7:00, if that works for Toddson and Sparky and anyone else that might make it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Should work for me.

So, Bistrot du Coin at 7:00 on Sunday. I have me, Hil, Toddson, FredPete and Hubs as likely, with Sparky and DH as possibles.

Am I missing anyone?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Oh, I can't make it (being that I'm here in Chicagoland!), but seeing this thread pop up reminded me that I am now in possession of candy necklaces, purchased for next year's F2F!!

(Michaels had some Halloween-themed ones at the front desk.)

Where are we on F2F dates again? I just got invited to a wedding on July 10.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

We haven't voted yet. July 10 is one of the possible weekends.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

July 25 is my brother's wedding.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Right - poll time. Should we make it preferential? And we're adding in July 10-12 & 17-19, right? (I'm assuming we're not going to try to have a F2F over The Damn Big U.S. Patriotic Holiday, Sir.)

After conversation, here were the dates we'd narrowed down to:

  • May 29-31
  • June 5-7
  • June 12-14
  • June 19-21
  • June 26-28
  • July 10-12
  • July 17-19

Juliana, I'd love to have a chance to vote for more than 1--maybe ask people to pick their first and second choices in one question and then pick up to two dates they couldn't attend in a second question?

Juliana, I'd love to have a chance to vote for more than 1--maybe ask people to pick their first and second choices in one question and then pick up to two dates they couldn't attend in a second question?

So:

FIRST date choice? [blah blah dates]

SECOND date choice? [blah blah dates]

ALTERNATIVE date choices (pick 2)? [blah blah dates]

Like that?

I think I'd like to keep it simpler and do first, second, third - that way I don't have to parse the alternatives. But I will keep in the "I cannot make it to these dates" question.
