Way to go, Nora! It looks like quite a big do.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Great job, Nora! That looks like it was a heck of a blowout. All that beer. ::drool::

Trudy's a cleavagey slut-bomb, pass it on!
The fundraiser was lots of fun, for sure. I made it an early night b/c flea had an early morning, and my feets was hurting. But flea experienced a number of NOLA traditions, just a couple of hours after arrival! Crawfish, jumbalaya, music, a wee second line, local beer, and people partying for a good cause. A woman tried to interview me on camera, too, but I wasn't in the mood.
Good interview, Nora! And really, it was a fabulous event. I don't even like beer and I had a good time (thank god for the New Orleans rum people and their rum tea).
Also, I reactivated my OKC account (it's all meara's fault), and now I might have a date sometime soon. With a guy who says this on his profile:
I think Buffy The Vampire Slayer/Angel is, as a single piece, perhaps the greatest artwork of the century and will probably be the defining work of late-capitalist, post-industrial America. Also, I am usually totally annoyed by the kind of people who agree with me.
So I sent him a message asking if he wanted to get a non-alcoholic beverage (he doesn't drink, but doesn't care if others do) and find out what we disagree on. Also, he's a math geek.
::shrugs:: We'll see.

Thanks guys! It was a good time, everything went according to plan (more or less) and I think we'll get close to $13,000 at the end of it all.
So tired.

HFS, $13K? That is AWESOME. I bow down to you.
Turns out "sometime" may mean "the next hour." We're talking about a picnic in Audobon Park. Fingers crossed he's not an axe murderer!

If he is, you might wanna turn around and ask how your hair looks before you go.(/obscure Wirefiend reference) I'm sure it looks good.

I don't know if it's that obscure if they're riffing on it in iCarly.

True enough...I'd forgotten about that, and locally? I don't know many people who ever watched it. But the people on the internet are smarter and cooler than desert-dwelling hooples.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I just think there are a couple of Wire references which have leaked out into the general populace. People that haven't watched the show would probably have a notion if you started yelling, "Omar's coming!"

Yeah, I guess. If our newest cat had been male, I might have called her Omar, but I named her for Tina Turner instead.
