And Jilli, the first post from Perkins says Sakae is a couple of blocks from the store. 
My reading comprehension and retention, has anyone seen where it went to? 
I just remembered I had to wash the remnants of stage blood off a brooch I wanted to take with me this weekend. Who do I talk to to get 
my
GothCard stamped?
	
 
		
		
How about those who can get to the restaurant at 5:00 do so, and the rest get there when they can?
	
 
		
		
For possible post-reading drinks/dessert (our tiramisu is awesome, and, of course, we have Fernet), I'm at Sodini's Bertolucci's [link]  Directions from Books, Inc. [link]
	
 
		
		
Awesome!  
Google maps puts Sakae at 469 feet from the book store. I haven't been there, but it's gotten good reviews: [link]
	
 
		
		
... Huh, I should check what the weather in L.A. is going to be like for the weekend before I start packing, shouldn't I?
If you're lucky, it'll be like today, warm but not hot and a bit overcast. 
	
 
		
		
Oh, cool, meeting earlier is easier for me, I think. And my cute shoes that I never have an opportunity to wear will appreciate the outing. I'll aim for the early side of 5 for Sakae.
I had thought I would buy a book at the signing but now I am wondering if I should get my copy beforehand. Opinions?
	
 
		
		
Oooh, could someone get a (signed) copy for me, please?  
bats eyes
	
 
		
		
I'll be buying it at the signing to support the bookstore.
	
 
		
		
I will get you a copy, Juliana. 
I think that brings me up to 4.
