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)
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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!!!)

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.
