I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

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.

Yay! I can't wait either! I'll send out an email later today to try and gather up the NC-istas. WOO!

Strix, the buses in Chapel Hill/Carrboro are free, and I'm within walking distance of the downtowns of both (if you don't mind surface-of-the-sun temperatures), but maybe we can arrange a get-together in Durham for either Tuesday evening or Wednesday evening.

amych, what say you?

Calli will be back from MI by then, too!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I'm good for whatever! I mean it. I'm SO easy! (Wow, haven't that SAID since my 20's and all I'm drinkin' is coffee!)

Er...you DO have WiFi right, so I can get a little work done here and there?

Off to look at tickets!

Woo, I can...uh, work. A little.

Heh. OMFG, I get kinda of a mini-vacation! It's like I won the lottery! WHAT IS THIS?

SQUEEE!

And honey, I'm from the land of 104 degree heat and crazy humidity; I can saunter around and see the sights whilst your at work.

Thank you for putting me up!

Quick question, amyth: Flights going back to KC are generally during the time you'll be at work, especially since I would need to leave early because of TSA and my metal arm of doom.

Is there a shuttle or a bus or train from your hood to the airport?

Probably easiest would be a taxi, especially with your arm. No trains in our neck of the woods, and buses would be...complicated.

But! So far, I don't have any meetings scheduled that day, and I live, literally, a three-minute drive from my office (BEST. COMMUTE. EVER!) and I'm less than a half-hour away from RDU. So I could probably get away to take you in the middle of the day. Especially considering that between August 17-19, I'll be putting in over 20 hours of overtime (and on my birthday, no less!) for student move-in.

Just let me know, and I'll block my calendar!

Oh, that would be wonderful -- I just didn't want to put you out!

We're heading to see the fam here in a few, but I'll send deets tonight before I book, make sure they work with your schedule. Sound good?

After not driving for so long, I'm reveling in getting to drive ALL THE PLACES. And give back just a fraction of that car karma. I'll never be able to repay it all.

Sounds good, Strix!

I'm going to send out a make-a-plan email in a little bit too.
