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)
Saffron: You just had a better hand of cards this time. Mal: It ain't a hand of cards. It's called a life.
'Trash'
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.

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

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...

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I'll be looking for someone to room with.Laga, I was thinking the same thing. It would cut costs down to half, and that I could afford. I'm hoping to use FF miles to get there. If you want to split a room with me, drop me a line.
(so, I think this means I'm going to MY FIRST F2F!!!)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I am unexpectedly getting a small tax refund, so I just might make it to the F2F this year too. I would also want to share a room.
