I can finally fit back into the dress I wore to the last three F2Fs that I attended (2007, 2008, 2009), but after wearing it three years in a row I wanted something new. JC Penney to the rescue, for I am a cheap date.

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

Heh. My prom dress in Seattle was one I brought to F2F San Fran two (three?) years earlier but couldn't quite squeeze into.
Now I want to put together a year-by-year gallery of prom wear.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Vortex, I don't know if I'll actually know by then, but thanks! This may be literally a last-minute decision. My employer owes me approx. $1300 bonus that they neglected to process the paperwork for, and I haven't gotten reimbursed yet for my business trip in April, and I don't know when I'm going to get it. So.

We need about $150 more to finish paying for the food/drinks at the Prom and to tip the bartender.
Done!

The status is NOT quo.
Shrift, thank you! And thank you to everyone else! I believe that with the checks people have said are en route and everyone else’s generous contributions, WE HAVE PAID FOR F2F!
Hurray!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hurray!

I have updated the F2F website with information about the Prom, BBQ, and the hotel. [link]

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
now I have to figure out what I'm going to WEAR!
I am so bad about that kind of thing, although the only F2F I went to I was a gazillion months pregnant at the time, so dressing nice was not really an option.
I"m still sending you a donation, Pix, I just need to consult our finances and make sure I have your address.

If you need my address, Burrell, drop me an email at my profile addy and I’ll send it to you. So glad you’re coming!
