Sorry, y'all, didn't manage to hit the other two hotels before leaving for DC for a week, as I got hit with a cold instead. :( Am arrived in DC tonight (complete with annoying plane delays) and hacking up a lung (grrrr, argh, NOT the vacay I had in mind). Will do the hotel-looking when I get back.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

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 Hood Canal bridge, connecting the Port Townsend area to the Seattle area is closing from May 15 to June 30 this year.
Well, unless a Buffista is staying in the area for awhile, it would be an odd choice for the F2F. It's a long round trip. You'd miss so much hugging & smooshing.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Well, I asked my boss today and she said I could (probably) have the 18th and 19th and 22nd and 23rd off - I initially was hoping for, er, 7 days, which was a bit optimistic, but she's going to try to let me leave on Wednesday - which is going to mean jetlaggadelic, but should mean, if my travel agent can pull it together, that I CAN HAZ F2F.

It looks like music can go pretty high tech this year at the F2F. The new version of iTunes allows me to set up a playlist, and then folks with iPhones can log into the playlist, see what's playing, add things to the playlist, and it looks like even do electronic voting to rearranging things in the playlist. All of this without going any where near the computer that's actually running the show. Should be interesting. I believe it works from iPhones and the iPod Touch.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Chaos! Is it preferential electronic voting?

It kinda looks that way. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet.

Shame you can't stay longer and actually soak up the place, but we'll be glad to see you!
You'll gain a day on the way here, and lose it on the way back. Mind-bending that international dateline.
