Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

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.

The status is NOT quo.

Alas, this weekend has become a no go for me. But Vortex, you're only about 40 minutes from my mom's house -- I'd love to see you!

Actually, I may have a window Saturday afternoon. Maybe a late lunch? I'll poke Victor and Lea since I know they aren't on the board much. Maybe we could meet in Hartford.

Pix, it would depend on what time Saturday. I'm having dinner with my in-laws Saturday evening, so a late lunch in CT is probably out for me, but you should definitely e-mail Lea and Victor. I mentioned to Lea yesterday that you were in town and could possibly get together.

Liese, dcp, anyone need directions to Rosedale BBQ tomorrow? 12:30, right?

Call or text tomorrow if you do or need a ride in my elegant vehicle (not.)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

That's right! And I think I'll be good, my GPS should be able to find it. See you then!

Fantastic; I can't wait!

It ain't fancy, but it's good.

WOO! Liese and dcp and I had some damned good BBQ and chit-chatted, and they got to meet the kiddo! It was so awesome to see them; I wish we'd had more time!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

It was great to meet you all. I'm sorry there wasn't time to take Liese sight-seeing.

I'm still a little embarrassed. The reason I couldn't take more pictures was that when I put a freshly charged battery in this morning I failed to notice that the memory card was missing -- it was still in the drive in my laptop from when I copied the Pasadena trip pictures over to it. Oooops.

The picture I did get is here: [link]

(I still have yet to post the Pasadena pictures. I'll try to get to that this weekend.)

New England folks: my local family/friend calendar filled up a lot more than I expected, so I don't think I will be able to get away this weekend. I know a lot of you were pretty busy too, though, so maybe it's for the best. Sad, though!

Pix, I'm sad to be missing you this trip, but I hope you are having a wonderful time with family and friends.
