Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

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.

Or Cafe Besalu!

Or Besalu! OMG Besalu.

Is the place that originated the maple-bacon donut in Seattle? Or is that Portland?

I suspect that is Voodoo Donut who're in Portland. Seattle can lay claim to Bacon Salt, tho'.

Whew. I was so scared last night--someone had me convinced that Pride was the same weekend as the F2F. EEEK.

I just googled and it's not.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Wish I could come to the F2F, but it's the same weekend as the East Coast Filk Con.

(Not like anyone will miss me, but I figured I'd speak up)

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

I was also not expecting full frontal male nudity in a comic book movie. I mean Batman never shows his...

Which is a crying shame now that Bale has the role. (Not that broken up about missing out on Beetlejuice's full monty...)

I saw Monsters vs Aliens this afternoon to get out of the apartment and away from my drawing desk for a bit. I ended up liking it much more than I expected.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BOB rules.

Oops, I mistakenly posted that here instead of in Movies. But I'll leave my post so as to avoid gaslighting Laga.

Heyyyy--just got a call from the Monaco's business manager--she was all "where are you on your decision? what can I do to push it?" I suggested that the catering minimum for the bigger room on saturday night ($3K) was scary for us, and she said she'd look into lowering it, and what would be more comfortable for us. I hesitated, and she brought up the number for the other room ($1500) on her own! She's going to get back to me.

Food for thought...

And she just emailed and indeed--they've dropped the setup fee for the room to $150 (it was 200) and the minimum to $1500. So it's the same as the smaller room.

...I think that makes the Monaco my favorite...
