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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

So, Juliana (or random mathy persons): where does that leave us? Do we have a final date for the 2009 F2F?

ack! turns out I won't be able to make it. Think kind thoughts of me and my beerless state. And tommy, I hope you're enjoying your trip ... insane traffic, random closures, and all (last night every driver on the road seemed to have a death wish).

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Do we have a final date for the 2009 F2F?

(Dude, I just got up!)

We do. June 19-21. June 26-28 got one more vote in the first question, but that weekend also got three more votes in the "can't make it that weekend" question, and June 19-21 got five more votes in the "first choice" question. So there we go.

Time to send out the RFPs to the hotels. I have one I've used before, unless previous planners have a Buffista-specific one.

Crap. I won't be able to make it. Someone drink a nice Belgian beer for me, please?

I'm on it! Though it was done in Massachusetts, they were nummy!

I think that we do. Ginger or someone else who's done the website before (Laura?) may have it.

So it looks like it's Tommyrot, Hil, Vortex, & me? And I think Tom & Vortex will be there closer to 6, and Hil & I will race for last place. Whee!

Will we be able to find each other? Normally I'd suggest meeting up out front, but since it's freezing and we aren't all going to be getting there around the same time, that seems cruel. I guess we can trade phone #s and whoever gets there first can call/text to say where they're sitting. Does that work?

I'd recommend getting a table in the upper floor dining room since as I recall that's a little less cramped than the downstairs bar.

Looks like I've been switched to a maybe. a bunch of people have caught this virus that's going around (Hell, I just got over it), and I may have to work tonight.

Hey, me too! Also Massachusetts, though.

Aaaand, I'm now a no, just got the call. I have to be there at 6:30, which means leaving the city at 6. You're leaving tomorrow, Tommyrot?
