And Deb? I again apologize for not warning you about the good-sized rubber spider in my room when you visited. I felt really bad about that.

Now I have this image of Mr. H hopping (and flopping) around naked, trying to remove his sock so that he may kill a spider. It amuses me.

And me too!

Thank you Astarte, and also - something that has nothing to do with F2Fing really, but mostly shameless pimping of my sibling. My sister's play has been re-whatevered at St.Ed's (Mary something theater). She wrote it all herself and stars in it. If you're looking for something to do on a Thur-Sun, think about checking it out.

Yes, that was a moment. I wouldn't have gone near your bedroom, but it had the only full-length mirror in the place, and I was off to World Fantasy. And I'd locked Hank and Daisy out in the hall, and the first thing I did was step on that spider.

I needed the cats to peel me off the ceiling.

It is possible this is exactly what happened. I didn't see. I was too busy screaming at the bloodsucker on the wall.

Okay, I want to see all of you except Sean, who talks me into compromising photo ops.

t enables Sean. And his subject.

so, buck naked EXCEPT for socks (or a sock?) Now I have this image of Mr. H hopping (and flopping) around naked, trying to remove his sock so that he may kill a spider. It amuses me.

This reminds me a story from university residence. Oh wait, that one's really rude. Never mind.

Tell, tell!

I'm up for whacking at the RFP to update it and then see if Gus or ND can host it so people can print it and send to their convention and visitors bureau.* But, in to work late this AM and I did hardly any work yesterday. Let's see if I can turn that around today, not that I have done any YET.

This sounds great. I'll make sure I've got some space to host this setup shortly.

you know what's really weird? Now that it's over in DC, I am getting slick proposals almost daily, including solications for nifty convention areas in Arlington, and maps of the area. Where were these people BEFORE the event? Grrr.

This is a big part of the reason I'm pushing for us to be doing this planning so far in advance. Many of these agencies work at a glacial pace. A year in advance is a fast track project for them.

The Buffistas spent $355.30 at the bar.

That doesn't seem like a lot. What was the average drink price -- $4? That works out to 89 drinks. And there were a LOT of Buffistas there.

Yikes, I think I spent like 30% of the cash taken in by the bar.

Did we meet our two-drink-per-person quota? I'm afraid I totally failed to make up for another person, as I meant to.
