I'm glad you're at least getting to travel, Theresa! I finally did my taxes and despite the fact I made so much less than I have in previous years, I still ended up owing Uncle Sam money. At least I'm getting something back from the state and I'll be a little under $100 to the good, but it's not enough to travel on.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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'm glad you're at least getting to travel, Theresa!
Honestly me too. And very surprised and grateful. It's not something that I was counting on or even had in my mind. Sometimes happy accidents occur at the right times.

More people need to have layovers in KC, is all I'm sayin'.
We definitely can't afford the F2F this year, but I wanna see me some Buffistas! Come on, guys, KC is in RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE COUNTRY. No one ever has a layover here?
Go layover, choose layover! Hell, you can stay the friggin' NIGHT at my house -- unless you are allergic to cats, dogs or smoke. Er.
(I may be just a leetle sad at not being able to go to the F2F this year...)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I'll be in KC sometime before the last week of June. I just don't know when yet.

Hey Boston! Due to being distracted and agreeing to do something without really thinking about it, I will be coming to Boston on May 5. I'm coming in early, presenting from noon to 1:30 and leaving that day.
My flight options are to head out right after at 3 something or to take an 8:30 flight. Is anyone around and up for cocktails or earlyish dinner that night? I have a few days to figure out flights.

Brenda! Unfortunately, Thursdays are pretty crazy for me. There's a small chance I could meet up, so keep me in the loop, but sadly it's not likely.

YAY! Hit me up; this summer is crazy-busy with the kidlet coming and all the obligations that go with that, but if I can (and you can, duh), we should meet up!

Brenda, I don't think that a Thursday is going to work for us either. Sorry!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ooh, I could do May 5! Where will you be?

Yay! The office is at Post Office Square. I'm definitely going to take the later flight because I want to squeeze in meeting with some people after the client meeting. (My boss is suggesting going out a day early but I'm resisting that because it makes dog care a lot more complicated. But that will depend on availability of the people I need to meet with so could happen after all.)
