And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

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

It is saved, meara! lisa, would you like an invitation to the googledoc, to add Baltimore to it? Ginger, I'll definitely consult Nilly.

Question - what do you mean when you talk about pricey airports? Food and services prices, or something else?

Edited: also, thank you, Laga, but I don't think I'll go to Florida. I have family there, but we last been in touch with them in 1986. I don't even know if I should try and send a letter reminding them of my existence and asking them if they'd like me to visit them (due to potential family drama).

Punishingly Intricate

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

Kansas City ain't bad; it's a 45 minute flight from Chicago and can easily be a layover for a day from Chi to the East Coast!

Plus, we have BBQ, Christopher Elbow ice cream, dcp, Gudanov, and possibly aurelia and Anne. Quester, maybe?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Shir, do you have a Chicago contact yet?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Dully noted, Strix. I think I'm gonna go East Coast > Middle and South > West Coast > North, but it's a very early planning.

aurelia, I have one, but not officially. She didn't answer yet, but I'm counting on her. Chicago, maybe LA, and Seattle are also places for F2F with ,my Other Board (SFR on the spreadsheet).

And forgot to answer this, but Pix, schedule permitting, I'll totally take you up on LA to SF offer (and pay for the car rent and gas, obviously. Also, eh, might be a good time to mention that I don't drive. In flights and public transportation I trust).

I got that vague feeling that I'm gonna learn a lot about U.S. geography in the next few months.

Thanks again, all!

Hey, aurelia, that's me. I'll be adding info later today, but if you want to sign in also we can add to each other's if that works for Shir.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Totally works for me.

Edited: Strix, I just noticed I got an error when I answered your email earlier ("mailbox unavailable"). This is also where I sent the GoogleDoc invitation. Is there another email I can use?
