Just poking my head to thank Beverly for her wonderful F2F recaps - it makes it easier to imagine actually being there, in addition to the pictures.

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!
Here are my pictures. If any of the IDs are wrong, let me know. The cold seems to have killed the brain cells that the alcohol didn't.
No flu here, either.
I have to say that, especially in light of my lifelong inability to in any way spiritually mesh with New York? I've just had the only - I mean only - stressfree four consecutive days here of my life, and that includes seven years of living here. Jess and Ethan are amazing; between them here, and Vortex in DC (babygirl!), I can go home and dive into four days of BayCon feeling rested and unstressed.
Thank you, everyone.
Wow, Ginger! Great pictures!
Deb, I'm so glad you are de-stressed and home safe. It was so great to finally meet you, the first Buffista to really reach out and make me feel welcome on b.org (and later send me lemon bread just because I was stressed). You're a damn fine woman in person, too. Thank you.
I am just shallow enough to think "Look how curly my hair is here!"
I didn't get the physical flu. Just the emotional one.
Word.
I also just caught up in Angel, wrote a long analytical and emotional post about it, and had the board eat it when I tried to post.
KHHAAAAANNN!
And I posted this in the wrong thread!
Cheryl is home with the sore throat today. I'm feeling fine for now. I suspect the microbes are hiding out and building up their strength in order to attack me over Memorial Day weekend.
Ginger - great pics!
More pictures! I'm just shallow enough to think that this is one of the weirdest expressions I've ever been photographed making. I must've just screwed up pronouncing Jeff Meija's name.
When I crawled back into work after the F2F, my roomie asked, "So, how was the Petrie Dish Party?" I hadn't even considered the germ-swapping options.
Holy shit! Aimee's pregnant!!
Faaabulous pictures, Ginger. I'm sorry you and smonster and everyone else who has the F2Flu isn't feeling well. It's the memories you're supposed to hang onto, people, the glow and the grins, not the germs!
Deb, so glad you had a restful time. Next F2F there has to be a kitchen where you and Jess can have a real cookoff, and the rest of us can deal with the results, yes? Fantastic news on the catalogue, too! And I hope Baycon is a great experience this year.
I'm working on the next-to-last installment of the F2F report that wouldn't die. It suddenly occured to me about an hour ago that this time last week I'd just met Bicyclops, Cab and Ginger, and we were heading toward DC. Waah! Who's responsible for the time machine?
