Even the Hiding-in-the-Stairwell contingent wants to see Nilly!
It's what we do! (Even if it means peering through the stairs.)
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!

Inquiring minds would like to know: just how many members of the Stairwell Contingent will be attending the SF Nilly-Q? We may need an extra bolt hole or an escape plan.
I am kind of thinking that Deb's kitchen will be the stairwell, at least for those of us not cat allergic, since the party will be outside.
nilly are u still there?
Teppy and I will both be there representing the stairwell contingent.
A headcount for the actual BBQ would be a good thing. I'll be pinging as we get closer, to finalise.
I missed that La Tep was going to San Fran! Yay!
Definitely definite Teppitude in San Francisco? That is awesome! (The spare couch offer still stands--we have a newer used couch than at your last visit, guaranteed 100% not broken in the middle--but it has to be the couch, as it's an Emmett weekend and the bed will be occupied by boyness).
eta: does extra-happy shimmy of happiness for Gingertude as well
So, so happy that the whole Nillythang is coming together. Deb, let me know if you need help with vacuuming, cleaning, moving furniture, or any other prep work.
Sheryl, what is your exact schedule? I do hope we'll get to meet.
We leave for Boston on Sep. 3. As you will be in Boston Aug 23-25, I won't see you there. I will see you in DC, as you'll be there from Aug 30- Sep 2, which is before I leave.
It works out very nicely.
Jacqueline, I may well take you up on the pre-BBQ prep. It's not arduous stuff, just boring as hell: mostly getting out in the morning in funky clothes and setting the chairs one by one atop our outdoor sump-pump big drain, spraying the chairs with some nice organic compound, letting them sit for a minute, hosing them off, and patting them dry with paper towels.
It's insanely tedious, though. Be warned. And it's the one thing I never have time to do properly, what with food prep and all.
