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.

“Not dead yet!”

X-post from Beep Me:

SoCal-isats, I'll be in Long Beach from 11/2-11/5 for a ballroom competition. This is my first big one, out of my local area, so to say I'm nervous is understating it. So far, what I know is I'll be competing Thursday and Friday, single dance events during the day and the scholarship events (where I do all of the dances in one go) on those same evenings after 8PM. The event is taking place at the Westin Long Beach.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I wish, meara. I need to go through security by about 5:30.

The status is NOT quo.

Barb, we’d love to see you! We’re actually going to a friend’s big after-Halloween-Horror-Nights Halloween party the night of the 4th...IN LONG BEACH. Hmm...

“Not dead yet!”

Hmmm... that would be awesome, Pix!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

x-post from Press:

DC-, Baltimore-, and other local-istas, mark your calendars for brunch on Sunday, November 6th. We will be sending the vibrant, voluptuous, vivacious, and vital Vortex off to the wilds of suburban Connecticut with three of her favorite things: friends, food, and mimosas.

Vortex has suggested Masa 14, which has a unlimited prix fixe brunch (including unlimited brunch beverages) for $35/person. Menu here: [link]

We are under no obligation to follow her suggestion, so if anyone has other ideas, make your way to F2F and let's discuss. I would like to finalize location and head count as soon as possible in order to ensure there's adequate space for us.

Time-wise I was thinking around 11 am/12 noon, which gives the suburban DC and Baltimore folks time to get downtown without getting up at the crack of dawn on a Sunday.

Ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?

You could come as a ballroom dancer. Just saying.

Just following up regarding Vortex's farewell brunch on Sunday. I've only received one response so far.

If Masa 14 doesn't work for everyone, then let's figure out a place that does.

Our wings are not tired.

Pompano Beach! I would love to join the farewell brunch, but it is a really long drive. I shall raise a mimosa in camaraderie.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Chicagoistas, I will be in your city on Sunday Nov. 20th. I'll probably get in around lunch time, and my train leaves at 9:30 pm. Anybody up for socialization?
