I am different than his teenage fanbase, thankyouverymuch.
And this is why I think you actually have a shot at some face time with him.

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

So if it turns out that Gerard has read Jilli's book, and asks for an autograph, will she spontaneously combust?

forgot I came in here to post something...
I kinda didn't get the f2f withdrawal you guys were talking about. I mean I was sad it was over but I wasn't feeling actual pangs or anything... until D came home and I mentioned that I had been playing Guitar Hero and gotten very warm and that's why "the costume change" happened... and I was transported back to prom and my chest started aching and my brain went all lolcat must have f2f naow! and now I get it and I also understand what Drew meant by f2f addiction.
So uh. Next year, Worcester?

Wow, Worcester, eh?? Is that a random place suggestion or was it discussed in Seattle? Either way, I wholeheartedly support it!

I am currently blind and chasing my eyes all over the floor because they rolled right out of my head.

Seconding, though if folks also want to get into Boston it's a tad tricky. But HELL - I'd take F2F anywhere in New England. I'd love Portland, for example (the, ahem, original), but we don't really have any consulting resources for accommodations and such (me being utterly useless at it).

The only time I heard F2F 2010 discussed, the location that got people excited was Salem.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Jilli, I think if you told him about the day you lit water on fire he'd be utterly charmed. Particularly if is brother was there.
Do. Not. Give. Them. Ideas.
I, personally, believe Jilli. She's a million kinds of calm in these situations.

I checked into that last time the East Coast came around but the hotel situation was more limited (2 main ones in town) and pricier than what we usually go for. But who knows...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Stunthusband would rapidly find his misanthropy would have him running screaming from the horrifying over-stuffed convention.
And this is precisely why I won't be going, probably ever. The one Dragon*Con I attended and last year's New York Comic Con totally cured me of wanting to go to horrifying over-stuffed cons.
I might be willing to coordinate a Richmond F2F. Of course, I'd love a Charlottesville F2F, but we have a teeny airport. It costs more to fly into and out of than Richmond, which is a hub.
And speaking of which, what's the airport sitch with Worcester? Or is that in the link? ::goes to look::
