Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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.

Bummer! I'm in the reverse position. I might be able to come if it's June 26-27 (I can arrange our CT trip around that), but no way can I do another coast-to-coast flight a few weeks later. I don't think ND could come either week.

I'm in a similar position to meara; I can't do June 26-27 (work conference), so I'd prefer July 10-11, but I'll also be flying to Massachusetts twice over the summer already (wedding prep and then the wedding!), so I don't know if I'll have the energy or money to also attend the F2F, even if it's on a free weekend.

I almost didn't vote in the dates poll, but I do *want* to come! Guess I'm trying to keep hope alive.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Scrolling back, I notice that June 26 is also one of the weekends Trudy said was blacked out for NYC. So it may not be the best weekend even if the numbers show that it's the most popular.

Right, but NYC isn't the only city in the running, much as I love it. I'd like to at least have the option to vote for that date in one of the cities.

Also, is it truly blocked out, or was that a hotel conflict? Might there be other options? Just checking to see if I can have my cake and eat it too.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The reason that June 26-27 was off for New York was that that weekend is unavoidably booked for me. As I am "hosting", I felt it was reasonable to block out the date when I am not able to be present for the actual event, given that there were many other options that were open.

Got it, that makes perfect sense.

Providence and Philly, are both weekends open for you, or only one?

Our wings are not tired.

Philly doesn't seem to have any closed dates.
