Wednesday's the only day I'm there, and I'm leaving on an eight o'clockish train, last I heard.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Can't reschedule Wednesday, so how about an oh-so-sophisticated gathering at some bar for drinks at 5? I vote the Algonquin [link] , where we can get one pricey drink and pretend to be in the '30s. Plus, it's got comfy places to sit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I work across the street from the Algonquin - ok if I join you guys?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I probably won't be able to duck out of work that early. I'll get there as soon as I can; probably closer to 6:00.

Hey, I'll be at BEA too and could meet up on Wednesday!

I will hang out and wait, no problem. That's an EXCELLENT idea. And I was thinking of you, Jess -- I didn't know if you checked this thread.
Fun! I will hopefully be loaded down with a big bag of giveaway books from BEA, too. If anyone can think of a big summer book they're looking forward to, let me know and I'll see if I can snag one. (Also fall, I guess -- mine is fall, so they might be there, too.)
Kate P.! No way! Awesome.

We'll be waiting for you with open arms, Scola! And Kate, too!

I'm so excited to see you all!
