Ugh. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to miss the F2F, since my mother just mentioned that there's a party for my great aunt's 90th birthday, so I gotta go to that. It's in Florida, and the flight alone is $500 from CT and the attendant family drama will be costly as usual.
Slap my hand now!

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

Dag, Vortex if I was your Great Aunt and turning 90 I wouldn't expect you to give up drinking, debauchery, kissing and partying for my birthday. I'd say, "Send me some good candy and have a good time!"

Aww man, vortex! I wanted to see you since going to DC doesn't mean I will anymore!

Aw, Vortex, you gotta go to the f2f! I feel like we should start a sponsorship campaign.

I'm still going to try to work it out, but I just rented the condo after 6 months, so my savings are nil.

Oh sad! Of course we will understand, Vortex, but sad. We will have to make a Vortex avatar if you can't make it.

Okay, all, I need a head count and a sense of if we can raise enough money so I can make a final call about whether or not to reserve a small ballroom for Prom. Remember that the low rates disappear TOMORROW at 5, so this is your last chance to get a room at that rate.
Here’s who I have attending (though not all have booked a room) according to the thread:
ND and Pix
Matt TBF
Laura and DH
P-C
Erin Obscure
Omnis
Sean
Dcp (your hotel question is in the works, btw)
Brenda
Meara
Jilli and Pete
Zenkitty
SailAweigh
Javachik
Burrell
Vortex?
Other local LAistas coming to Prom, even if not booking a room? Other Buffistas who haven’t yet spoken up?
Also, at this point we have only raised $145 of the at least $500 (without a room for Prom, just a HS and some snacks). I’m getting nervous, all. If we get a Prom room, we’re looking at closer to $1000.

Where do we send F2F donations?
Yesterday I was pretty sure I wouldn't make it but today I'm back to maybe. I'll decide by Wednesday.

Sorry--deadline is actually tomorrow, not Wednesday.
