I think you were also frazzled by having got lost - that always makes things seem like obstacles to me.
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!
So, from the SF end - who's shooting for the SF leg of Nilly's visit? We'll need to make sure everyone has the means to get here (this will be so much easier if Nic's working, so fingers crossed for this), and that everyone has a bed for the weekend.
If I can get a decent airfare, mememememememe!!! If not, I'm willing to go East to see Nilly. Will scout airfares.
If I come to SF, I'll probably stay at the Carl, just to make things easy.

Maybe me. Again, need to wait to see exactly how the dates work out.
If I make it to SF, I will probably stay at the Carl, so if someone wants to share a room and costs, that would be cool.
There's also - in case the Carl is short on rooms - the Red Victorian Inn, which is about four blocks from the Carl, right on Haight, even closer to my house.
with Cass, and then we're planning an Epic Girl Road Trip from San Diego to LA (pausing to play a couple of days with LAistas) and then up to San Fran for Deb's bbq and meeting Nilly!!!Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!
(Cass, want to room together in San Fran and spilt the costs?)Absofuckinglutely!

I think I might try flying to San Diego to visit a non-Buffista friend for a couple dayst weeps
Kristin, Matt, Cass and anyone else who is thinking hotel in SF for Nilly!Weekend, I recommend the Carl Hotel. It's a few blocks from my house, even closer to Hec and Jz's, it's affordable (by SF standards, it's incredibly affordable), and it's charming.Thanks Deb!

Heh. You betcha. There are masses of hotels in SF - it's our main money-maker, because we're either at the top of the US destination list, or in the top five, pretty much all the time - but those are the ones close to us. If more are needed? Give a yell. I'll find.
Sigh. SO not going to be back in LA in time. Seriously doubt Nilly will stop by Mississippi. Can't afford to go, well, anywhere.
=(
I'ma miss the fun. =(
I love the Carl, great little hotel, right on the cable car line, in the Haight. Highly recommend. It's about a 5 minute cab ride from Deb's if you are too lazy to walk (like me and meara, though in our defense, we had walked all over creation that day). I'm just going to have to hope that Nilly makes it to the east coast, cause my finances won't support an SF trip. Wah!
Not the cable car, sweetie - those all run east of Van Ness Avenue, and we're in the northwest corner of the City. It's the N streetcar line that stops literally feet away from the Carl, and which runs all the way from downtown (the Embarcadero, as far east as one can go in SF) out to Ocean Beach on Judah Street - and, incidentally, right by Celia's #1, really good and really affordable Mexican food, with a bar; 'dre and I took juliana there for dinner during the Halloween festivities last year.
Of course, the Haight (just down the block from the Red Vic) has Zona Rosa, which makes yummy yummy carne molidas burritos....
