Buffistas

Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

~We never see each other any more except at weddings and funerals.~

I haven't been here for a very long time, but Buffistas was so important to me at a key point in my life. Betsy HP forwarded my resume to a woman she encountered on the Internet, and that woman referred me to a job at E! Online and I was there for eight years and I tell everybody I can (including Joss Whedon the one time I met him) that Buffy saved my life.

But it wasn't really Buffy.

It was the Buffistas.

ita was at the center of that, and honestly, just so damn cool. I only met her once, but I think of that evening quite often, just because she was so kind and so hospitable and a model of the kind of woman I wanted to be when I grew up and sorted myself out.

ita, wherever you are, you will not be forgotten.

Art Crawl!!!

One of the things I regret is that I never met ita in real life.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

You guys, I dirty-danced with ita at girlbar back in the day and it was GLORIOUS.

I may have to seize the cat.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I'm with Aims. I keep trying to push the damn "like".

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I regret that too, sumi. Even just over the internet-- she was just so present and strong and sure and admirable. There is a LOT of there there.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Figured it out, I think: [link]

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

amyth, I won't be out until 9 or 9:30.

I'm sure we'll still be there. Swing by and wallow with us!

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Kiba, is your profile addy good? I'll email you my phone number, and you can text me when you are out with an ETA. If we are still there and have another drink in us, I'll let you know. Sound good? I think that we should be able to sustain until at least 10:30, old though we may be.

Now I just sound like a grandma, but I have to be at work at 7 a.m. these days. But, you know what? We WILL be there! Swing by and wallow with us. For ita.
