Buffistas

Buffy! If I wanted to fight, you could tell by the being dead already.

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

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm not familiar with Tucson, but if it's anything like Phoenix in July, my answer is not only no, but hells no.

Having lived 8 years half way between Phoenix and Tuscon, I strongly recommend that people who aren't used to triple digit weather plan their vacations to the gorgeous state of Arizona between October and May at the outside. November to April is a better margin of comfort. February and March are when the desert is in bloom, so that's the bestest time. If you would like to know what a "dry heat" feels like, turn your oven on to 250, and sit in front of the open door (don't put your head inside) for a while.

ETA: Tuscon is at a higher elevation than Phoenix, so it may not get quite as hot, but here is a site that explains what temps to expect when: [link]

Tucson would be great in April or May, but nsm July. It regularly gets to be 110+ in July and August. It is a fantastic place, though. If we were thinking earlier and someone could be point person, I would definitely pimp it.

Santa Fe would be great even in the summer (I''ve never been and always wanted to, but weather.com lists average temps here: [link] but do we have someone who could coordinate?

Santa Fe is nice, but small, and can be very expensive. The cheapest airfare is to fly into Albuquerque, and then it's an hour's drive to Santa Fe.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Hey Bay-area folks, I know more about my San Francisco trip! I arrive the afternoon of Mon Oct 13 and once I get checked into the hotel I'll have the entire evening free. Thurs the 16th I have a break from 5-8pm so dinner is a possibility. Friday the 17th I don't have anything scheduled until the show at 8pm.

I don't know what hotel I'll be in but I'm hoping it won't be far from the theatre which is at 609 Sutter St.

Let me know if any of you are free to play at any of those times.

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

Dammit, I'm going to be out of town that whole week!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am in town, but it's hard for me to get up there during the week. Any chance you are going to be here on Saturday? If not, maybe I can arrange to work in SF on that Monday.

I leave Saturday morning, sorry.

Hmmm. Let me see about working in SF that Monday, then. If I can arrange it, what time do you land? Would an earlyish dinner, maybe around 6:00 or 6:30, work?

I'm supposed to land at 3:18. I don't see why that wouldn't work.
