Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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.

oops, I think I read that wrong.

I hope I get to see you on one of your trips!

In case anyone's plans change, P-C and I will be meeting Kat at Le Cheval in downtown Oakland at 6:30. Just send me an email, and I'll add you to the reservation.

Our wings are not tired.

I wish I could make it (just received your email, megan), but I have to go pick my dogs up after work tomorrow night and get them some exercise before I drive the 40 miles home and crash. I look forward to meeting Kat on one of her next trips! And I heartily endorse Le Cheval!

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

Man, I hope Megan Walker shows up this time.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Aw, I've never been to La Cheval, though I hear it's great. Unfortunately, despite the OTC remedies I have been steadily ingesting, I am at tat unfortunate stage when laughter sets off a coughing fit. And if there's one thing I can be sure of, meeting buffistas will be an occasion of laughter.

I hope I get another chance to meet you before too long, kat! Meanwhile, I am very much enjoying your blog.

What a shame--I WAS in Oakland, and I'm leaving out of the Oakland AIRPORT shortly...just missing Kat! :)

Aww, I missed meara and -t and beth and javachick. Spectacularly bad timing on my part.

But also spectacularly good timing because I just got to have coffee with Java cat and Connie, both of whom are crazy cool women and lovely to hang out with on a brisk July day. Connie and I got to see Java cat's postcards from the F2F with my favorite being the cowboy hot tub, though they were all pretty fab. And just in general a good time was had by . . . well, me at least. Thanks for hanging out. And tonight I will see megan and PC which rocks.

I had a great lunch with libkitty today and she showed me where she works. I'm pretty sure she wins the prize for workplace with the best view.
