I too am a solid middle-aged person. I have my own business. I've had extensive background checks. I only own a small axe.
I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe you can also tell them that I won't be there, Holli.

I can't think why I was worrying about which sweater to bring -
Same reason I was thinking I should bring my leather jacket, so I can stay warm when the sun goes down - we're Californians, and thus have a skewed idea of what weather is supposed to be like.
I will grudgingly leave my leather at home, and thus not sweat like a dog.
DO NOT FORGET TIARAS, CROWNS, ETC!! PACK THEM NOW!!
Oooh! Thanks for reminding me.
Though if I don't get a few obscene phone calls I might be upset.
This, too, can be accommodated.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Maybe you can also tell them that I won't be there, Holli.
This, my love, is not a plus.

My parents are (STILL!) afraid I'll be axe murdered, so they insisted I bring a friend. So it'll be a double homicide, I guess.
Oh, sure! We can kill both of you, if it will soothe your parents' concerns.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

See, this is why Sean makes such a good indentured Sherpa. He's very accomodating, he is.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Just make sure you pack the axe in your checked luggage and call it "sports equipment" if anyone asks.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Holli, do you want to be "Holli" on your nametag? And how about your friend's name, for his/her/its nametag?
I will grudgingly leave my leather at home
Dude, the pants are HOTT, but they'd also be hot. And heatstroke really cuts into the time allotted for merriment.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
This, my love, is not a plus.

Thirded. I'm thrilled to be meeting peeps, but sorrowful at the thought of all those I won't see at this occasion.
