I work across the street from the Algonquin - ok if I join you guys?
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
YES!!!!!!

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.
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!

Because books.
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!

BEA is in NYC this year? I can't wait until it returns to CHicago, because I'll go again, this time as a "librarian" instead of "bookseller." Probably won't get the attention at the booths that I did as a Waldenbooks employee, but oh, well.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Sorry I can't make it, kids. Have a witty rejoinder for me.
