And how cute is it that blushy Fay is the one starting all this with asking for spanking. The women who couldn't even stand to be candy handcuffed.
Aw, see, I'm all talk. I cannot seem to restrain myself when it comes to double entendres (er, or writing porn) but am still, as you will have gathered, really quite appallingly flusterable. It's very embarrassing. I feel that I let the side down, rather, but there we are. (Of course, I realise that my first F2F was characterised by, er, rather less running away, and rather more making out with everyone. But that was because Plei broke me unexpectedly and efficiently in the Hospitality Suite, and then I was broken, and that was that.)
Welcome, Stunt Husband! Oh, lord, I
so
wish I'd had the chance to exchange more than a couple of words with you, because you seemed utterly delightful, and the frail vehicle of the English language is inadequate to expressing just how very much I approved of your ensemble. I have conceived a mighty envy for the coat of fabulousness, and suspect that I may have to have my tailor make me something along those lines this summer. That despite the fact that there are really no situations where I ever need a coat in Thailand.

Would have liked the chance to talk
Trek
and/or pirates with you, but evidently it was not to be. But, damn it, yes, you must come to the next F2F. Which will be in Bangkok, right?
...right?

We can haz yummy food, sunny beaches, cocktails served IN BUCKETS and all the shiny things you could possibly imagine! Massages! Spas! Shopping! Parks and gardens and jungles! Things being cheap! And all a mere 20 - 30 hour flight away!
...yeah, damn, I just lost you all, didn't I? Curse it. Somebody tell Joe to get his lazy ass back to fixing the damn matter transporter, 'kay?
So I'm at a party right now, and I keep wanting to walk up to people and hug them at random. Dude. I forget that everyone isn't us.
Wait!! So your awesome snog mojo doesn't transcend into other groups?
Help me come up with reasons why D wants to come with me to the book signing tomorrow.
Because the House of Reason is awesome. Sit him down at the interwebs and show him the videos. Explain that her advice transcends all groups and isn't exclusive to Goths. Also, there were some beautiful women there. And how often do you go to a book signing where you know the author!!

I refuse to countenance this suggestion. This is Tom Scola, ffs!
I hugged the people I was with tonight, AIWFG!
My quick post on the book signing

I chose Jilli over a shinny new laptop -- that should say something
eta: I'm wondering if using the a word in a non-buffista place puts me higher on the list?
But that was because Plei broke me unexpectedly and efficiently in the Hospitality Suite, and then I was broken, and that was that.
Good times. There didn't
seem
to be an excess of reserve at that particular moment, as I recall (vividly. What with you coming up for air laughing riotously, then returning to your delightful task.)
I still haven't unpacked. At what point does it cease being sheer inertia and shift into outright denial?
I have not only unpacked. I've repacked and flown to another state.
I just got back from Jilli's signing. We had a
fabulous
time hanging out with Jilli's Goth fangirls who are totally Buffistas without knowing it. The bookstore only had 7 copies left; I think someone here had called and heard they ordered 24? Out of which Perkins bought, like, five billion? Watch your mailboxes, folks.
I took lots of pictures but have to sort through which ones actually look good. They should be up next week; I'm still writing about last weekend! Too much Buffista fun in such a short timespan!
Yay StuntHusband! Who I am now having entertaining fantasies about seeing swoop through the Cuff some evening. Possibly to take down the vampire boy with the contacts and fancy goatee and fangs and long leather coat. Hee.
Tom's snoggability should totally carry over. Sad that it doesn't.
Hell, all of ours should. WTpolarbear, world?
