She just... she just did the math.

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!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Morning. More coffee is needed.
Why do teenagers think they are indestructible?
Maria, they believe this because the first sign of true adulthood is the bone-deep understanding that you can die, and someday will. That's why children who have been through things like chemo are so heartbreaking; their awareness of the inevitability of their own death, soon or late, seems so damned inappropriate.
Prom was foamy. My only comment on the pictures is that there are not nearly enough of Raquel. She's drop-dead gorgeous.
And Holli was amazing, as were Lizard and Reema.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Did Cass get her hug from the delurking mothra?
Yes, yes she did.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Holli was faaaaabulous. RL and Reema just hit the road, and a platoon of us just got back from breakfast in the hotel restaurant.
JenP, Sean (who was injured in the line of duty, poor baby), and Lee all shout hello. We'll be back on the boards too soon...

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Not too soon for some of us.
Great pictures, DX.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Okay, y'all are giving me feelings of Boob Inadequacy. Seriously.

Swouncing
It took a couple of tries
Thanks, beth - but it didn't help. Oh, well, at least I have DX's pictures.

Up with the sun
I'm getting all sniffly at the pictures.
Last night was, seriously, quite possibly the best party I have ever been to. ND did a great job assembling the mix, everyone was gorgeous (There were many, many tiaras, and I have to give props to Debetesse and Raquel,who kept the Jilli flame alive. Also JZ and Vortex for fabulous corsets), and Patrick and I danced for, like, three hours and collapsed in our hotel room at 1:30, when the party was still going strong.
Oh, and RLiz (who is adorable with Reema) macked on me! I'm still giddy over that.
I'm at home now -- have some writing I need to finish -- but I hope I see y'all tonight to say goodbye.
Edit: {{{{Maria}}}}. I'm glad you came to Prom anyhow.

What is even happening?
Yes, yes she did.
You're so generous, DX!
My only comment on the pictures is that there are not nearly enough of Raquel. She's drop-dead gorgeous.
Mmm. I saw the back of her head in one, and coveted her hair, something fierce. Need more Raquel.
deb, you looked splendid and regal (as someone there noted). I am glad you got to go.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Overwhelmed with the foaminess. I need a fainting couch.
Many thanks to all you who took the time to post piccies or stories for those of us desperately trying not to die from envy.
