All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

PEOPLE. STOP SAYING HER NAME. SERIOUSLY. IT NEVER ENDS WELL.

Yeesh. Y'all have driven me to asscaps!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Heh. I must take a picture of this truly horrific doll I got as a white elephant last year. My friend, who is a therapist, obviously was working out some serious childhood trauma when she "adorned" this thing.

I don't think it's as bad as Belinda, but it's definitely Satanic Skipper to her Evil Barbie.

I have been all whacked out and sick since last week, so I have yet to put together an info sheet for the F2F.

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.

Getting hold of hotel info is not as easy as I thought it would be. My hat is off to those who have done this for previous years.

I've talked to two places, and I'm exhausted. Plus I have the sneaking suspicion that Kansas City might be the place to go.

Ask to talk to the person in charge of organizing events at the hotel. Front desk people will give you no love.

And I always give myself a title:

"Hi, I'm an event coordinator for a Web-based networking site, and I am pricing hotels in the area for a small event for my client. What prices can you give me on a bloc of rooms, a mix of singles and doubles, for approx. 40 people?

Also, we would need a room or suite that would be used for socializing meetings, with a large screen TV and a DVD player. What kind of internet access do you provide, and are there any charges?

In addition, my client wants a Saturday night cocktail party with hors d'ourves, with room for music and dancing. What kind of package can you put together for me to look at?"

Also, have your dates at hand.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Wow, we don't sound crazy at all.

Windsparrow, do you have the RFP from Vortex? That details our needs very well and you could use that as a reference for calling.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Wow, we don't sound crazy at all.

I know. Erin's an artist with these things.

Thanks, y'all.

I keep waiting for the job position with the title "Bullshitting Your Way to Respectability" to open; I would totally make y'all write me reference letters!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Well you would write the reference letters. We would just sign them. Now off to post-minor-surgery nap.
