Woo! Maria and flea and I have made plans, and will be checking out the museum center (often mistaken for the Hall of Justice) and then dinner/Graeter's/whatnot.
I am having a splendid birthday weekend!
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

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.

Our wings are not tired.
Yay for splendid birthdays! You deserve nothing less.
I've delayed and delayed accepting that we just can't manage to get to the F2F this year. I can't even manage to stay caught up in a handful of threads. We put off making concrete plans for too long waiting to figure out the when/where/hows and time got away from me. I hate even typing it out because it makes it real. But since it is less than a week away I have to face the disappointment head on. Wah!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Well dang, ita is showing up in style!
I'm sorry you won't be there Laura.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
(Oh! Don't assume this will happen...anti-climaxes are always around the corner for me.)

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Laura, that's so sad. I know this is a long shot, but don't forget our guest room is available if an amazing plane fare pops up tomorrow or the next day...
Yeah. I know. But I'm sad!
I will cross my fingers that you can make it to BBQ or Prom or both, ita. We can work out transportation if you need it. Also, feel free to bring Colin if he's free.

Yeah. I know. But I'm sad!
Honestly, I will be checking for crazy last moment deals. Life is very last moment for me lately.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
It'd definitely be great to see you and Brendon again if you can make it, Laura.

Aw, yeah, Brendon is just a huge teddy bear. And I was looking forward to hitting the pool with you, Laura, since you seem to be such a waterbaby. I even bought a new suit!

I plan to swim too! Since I'm technically "staying" in the hospitality suite, I'll have pool access. :-)

Oh, gosh, the ridiculousness of Seattle summer--it didn't even occur to me that I would want to pack a bathing suit. Excellent reminder!
