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

I've stayed at that aLoft Brooklyn and I have to concur with Jessica. It's pretty swanky to look at (and the staff were super friendly and helpful) but the room is much prettier than it is comfortable. That said, it's right near a couple of subway stations and some great restaurants on Smith Street are well within walking distance. If you want kinda swanky/quirky/cool, Nu Hotel is the better bet for my money.

Also, go, Brooklyn!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I would be very tempted by Brooklyn, I must admit. Sigh.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I can drive to anywhere on the East Coast. Wherever we end up having it, I'm in this year!

Brooklyn would be cool. I feel like I know a lot about the city just from Tom's wonderful pictures and I'd love to see more of it in person.

The status is NOT quo.

From my own experience, I'd say that the sooner we make the decision and book the hotel, the better. I don't know if ND and I will make it this year--his young cousin from Northern Ireland will be staying with us and interning for his company all summer--but I know how much time it takes to put everything together in time for people to be able to afford flights and such.

I just put a note in Press that we've started discussing it.

I think sarameg and Lisah should make it in Baltimore. Also, because I want to go to Baltimore.

Punishingly Intricate

That would be fun! hmm

When were people thinking?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It's been decades since I've been to B'more, not counting driving past it on the way to somewhere else. I'd go for that.

We usually do June or July, so our teachers can come, right?
