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!

Ok. Where are you gathering again?
Hee. And slumbernut. Note how effortless it looks.
Oh yeah, that's another one. I got to totally geek out about music with billytea more than once over the weekend and that was too. damned. cool!
The Mystic Aquarium has a penguin encounter program where you get to pet a penguin and listen to its heart with a stethoscope. It's a way of helping them acclimate to people and thus make the vet visits less stressful.
Penguins like to untie people's shoes. It's painfully cute.

Lee, I think it's that weekend, in fact, but I'll have to check at work tomorrow. It's some conference during the week that I'm tacking a weekend onto.
Damn. Hopefully I will be able to see you during the week.
I'd love to go to an aquarium with billytea. The zoo was fun but for me the best part was the invertebrate section and I think billytea skipped that for the monkeys.
I wasn't really fond of the insects but they had various sea life there and as I told DebetEsse and possibly a few other people, land animals just don't get me as happy and as excited as aquatic life.
If anyone wants to pay for the food (dead broke), I'll cook it.
I'd contribute to a foodathon at Deb's. Maybe we can lure some LAistas up for a munchdown.

t checks website So. African penguins. Yeah, that works for me. Yes, that was wholly redundant. Any penguin species would've worked for me.
t checks Mapblast The drive from Philly would be 4 hours, if all goes well. Not sure of the odds, there. I might be tempted to fly into Providence and drive from there.
When is this for again?

Nope. I quite happily passed on the great ape house for the invertebrates. The giant Pacific octopus was not at all giant, and kind of cute (and shy). It is true, the coolest invertebrates live in the sea, including octopus, mantis shrimp, pistol shrimp, giant crossdressing cuttlefish, and giant squid. And the big red tube worms that live by thermal vents. And the nudibranch, because it's so much fun saying nudibranch.
