Definitely a wonderful and memorable weekend. A very small gathering but it was so nice not to come away from it feeling like I was spread too thin to actually spend time with everyone. I'm not much of a picture-taker so thank you to everyone else for doing a great job of capturing moments in time.

Laura and Brendon should be almost home by now since their flight left almost 4 hours ago. I believe dcp is on his way to or already in Colorado Springs and the F2F is officially over. Sad now.

But - I fully enjoyed every moment of getting to know dcp and Brendon and spending more quality time with Laura and FINALLY meeting Nonian. That last part was way overdue! Now there are future plans for a trip to Florida (Brendon just might get my DH out on a boat!) and a lunch next month with Nonian on the schedule. Life is good.

I'll admit that Suzi and I, at first, were both quite bummed that the attendance was going to be so extremely low but life happens and plans change. With a small group we were able to do things and go places that we wouldn't have been able to do with a large group. And it's possible that this may be the first year that no one caught the dreaded F2F ick. All in all, a very calm way to introduce DH to an "official" Buffista gathering.

Completely understandable, and I personally was very sad that it fell out the way it did this year for us.

Very true! Did he enjoy himself?

I don't think anyone caught the ick in Providence last year.

Did anyone get con crud in Atlanta? I was sick as a dog for days afterwards, but I'm pretty sure that was due to a bad spinach puff rather than germs from people.

I'm fairly sure that anyone sick after Atlanta caught it on a plane. In fact, all the con crud I've gotten has not ever been from the venue but from the travel. Mostly because it's six hours in a metal tube with virus vectors.

I also think the Seattle ick TCG and I had we caught on the plane.

I've typically blamed my past experiences with the F2F ick to be due to lack of sleep and Too Much Candy / Kissing. Maybe that's just me.

He did!

Sheryl! So you're coming at a good/bad time for me! Bad because of those dates, the only evening I am free is the 14th. Good because the reason I am not free on the 15th and 16th is because I am in a play that you should come see! It's free! It's short! It's part of a whole festival of short plays!

P-C,

Sounds intriguing. Where is it?

It's at Cafe Royale, Post and Leavenworth, in the upper Tenderloin. It's Theater Pub, which is theater in a pub. They're doing Pint Sized Plays again.
