Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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!

The metro runs pretty late.

Yes, but I can't get home on the Metro, unless I want to walk a mile through cicadas in the dark at 2 am.

I suppose I could take the Metro to Bethesda and try to get a cab from there. [eta: Actually, this is a good plan, because I can have the Hyatt call a cab for me, and I won't have to wait outside anywhere. Excellent! Problem solved.]

Yes, you do.

ANDREW!!! It will be so good to see him again!

Wait, Jess.... You don't want to walk a mile through cicadas in the dark, at 2am?

Oh, right. Neither do I. Nevermind.

teamwork!! I have also been known to call a cab from the train, so that it is waiting for me when I get there.

Dude, that's right! Cellphones work on trains in DC!

New York is is SO behind the times.

well, it's more that the trains/stations are often above ground in DC.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before -- but for karaoke some of us should get up and sing "We Are the Champions." (That is what Wes, Gunn and Cordy sang --right?)

Oh, for some reason I thought you could get reception underground, too.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

You can. Or, at least, Verizon can. I think there are some services that can't, but I don't remember which is which, other than that Verizon can. (According to their commercials, Verizon also has service in the NY subways, but I have never had this work. I have made calls from underground metro trains, though. The reception's a little fuzzy, but it's there.)

I just talked to Javacat, who said that she talked to the hotel people, and the hotel pool will be open this weekend.

Cingular only got service in a few of the stations when I was there recently, but I was mostly underground at that point.
