You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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.

The status is NOT quo.

Things that make me sad...I don't think ND and I are going to be able to make it this year. We're trying to be a little smarter about money in order to pay down credit cards, and unless something unexpected comes through, we need to save for this summer. I may be able to tag along with him to Europe for the Mediterranean Nick cruise he will be working. We have the miles to fly me for free, but we still have to come up with a room fee and spending money for that week. (If I were truly smart I wouldn't be going at all, but I just can't see passing up the chance to see Europe at that much of a discount when I've never been anywhere but England before.)

Sad face.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Just checked airfares to Denver, and they made me cry. Of course, airfares from Juneau tend to do that, but still. Sigh.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

So, after being a bit of a slacker, I finally got some pics of the MFNLaw/Chicago supper up. Aren't we pretty?? [link]

A fair number of folks have recently expressed that they can't make the F2F. And so far we only have 3 room reservations, one of which is mine.

Do we need to run another poll to make sure we have enough people to make the hospitality suite and prom worth the cost? I had estimated the original cost of the suite/prom at $85/person when we were looking at 18 people. If we are just going to have a handful of people, we can restructure the F2F and have "prom" at my place or something.

Actually, instead of a poll - would you send me an e-mail if you are planning on coming, but just haven't made your hotel reservation yet? If you are a maybe, let me know that too. suzi dot watts at gmail dot com.

Crap. We also just got REALLY bad IRS news, so we are definitely not going to be able to go.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I want to go - I just have to try to work things out because we have some significant deadlines at that time.

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

We're definitely out of the running, which is especially frustrating because damn, the flights from SFO are seriously affordable. But funds are always tight, and we're facing a biggish car repair that'll wipe out our reserves for quite some time (though, happily, it'll also come close to giving the car another decade of healthy life, so well worth it on balance; it's just that the timing sucks).
