Buffistas

You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

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

"I've got a gun! I've got a mother-flippin' gun!" - Moss, The IT Crowd

The launch event went very well tonight. We were at standing room only and since I know the seating capacity that means we had 150 to 160 people. The store had ordered 89 copies and we sold 84 of them, leaving B&N with 3 signed store copies and 2 unsigned copies holding the fort on the now-decimated front display, right next to a display of Twilight books...

Heh, I just found out that the 3 signed copies weren't ever out on sale and the other two were tucked away on the shelves. There were actually people looking for copies who couldn't get them, so effectively, we did indeed SELL OUT!

Excellent.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I had a crazy veggie burger! It was almost like a giant falafel patty.

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

I had a crazy veggie burger!

Did it belong in the ranks of the best burgers?

I just found dcp's prom videos. So cool!

I feel that I am unqualified to make that declaration, never having had an actual burger. But it definitely tasted different from all the other veggie burgers I've had. Lot of red pepper ground in there.

I am so sorry I missed Purple, it sounds so delicious! That's what I get for thinking "I've already eaten, I can do without." Bah. Next time I'll know better.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

One thing I learned by not doing it - eat with the Buffistas on Sunday evening.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

For the record, at Jillis event, I snagged the third from last book from the display at the entrance to the stage area. I saw Twilight book right there with it, and hid that shite behind the sign for Jilli, while muttering about the tragedy of it all. This entertained my friend to no end. Who, I will say, was totally captivated by you, Jilli. Loved your coat. And was wondering if any of the questions were plants, because you seemed to have answers so quickly.

Every time I'm in Borders and pass their full table Twilight display - B&N doesn't seem to have such a large display - I snicker, considering all the comments I've heard about it here.

I can't be mad at them. The marmot is selling (and I mean marmot as in marmot as opposed to marmot as a substitute for "stuff")
