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.

I don't think that there's any need to apologize, J. You had an idea, we talked it out, we've bs consensused no. No big :)

We do a website anyway, with the basic info about hotel location, planned excursions, etc. It keeps people from having to search the thread for info or say "what's the hotel number again?"

Yeah, that was an x-post. Sorry if it came out snarky (to you or anyone).

I usually put up the web pages, because I have plenty of space. Is there something else y'all would like on a separate web space?

I'm down with a dead FB. Seriously, I wish it would die; I spend way too much time on it and I think I need someone to pull the plug.

Is there anyone who could throw something up on brenda's domain? If I had any webpage building skills, I'd offer. I've got all the time in the world on my hands right now. Unfortunately, I know just enough html to be dangerous.

ETA: That was a fortuitous crosspost!

thought it might be. :) Otherwise, I would have snarkily posted "As I SAID IN MY PREVIOUS POST [link] . . ." :)

I'd be happy to offer my webdesigning skills to the effort!

I never could link to either the vote or the vote results, which may nor may not have told me this (yes, this is a convoluted question): is this weekend for the F2F the weekend that both Fay and the Pete & Jilli can go? It seems to be yes from context above, so I'm doublechecking.

We can attend on the date, but it's a little early for Fay and she's having to try some shenanigans to be able to make it. Her attendance remains uncertain but we like to play it as she's attending and just hope the universe plays along.
