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!
I think I will pass on Aimee Mann too.
Deb and Sparky and Sean, insent shortly.
This portion cross posted with Natter: Monday the 16th is going to be wide open for LAista Nilly visiting, since she will be at my house but I will be at work at least some of the day. (I may be able to sneak out about 1:00 or 2:00.)
Also, this is not at all written in stone, but Nilly and I have been thinking of going to Disneyland on Tuesday (eta: based in large part on ND's and Aimee's earlier idea) and Wednesday going to Huntington Gardens.
If people are (still) interested in either, let me know.
Phoo. I've just been checking around and can't find a freeware version of the Firefly font - there are a couple of close-but-not-quite fonts, and there's one called "Nuptial" that appears to be exactly it and also costs $24. I'm leaning toward just trying to freehand a close approximation, or possibly going begging in Firefly and Minearverse to see if someone there already has it.
If ideas are still being sought for Nilly tour t's: Sparky1 and her DH had adorable tshirts for their relatives at their wedding: they were brightly colored tie-died shirts from Telegraph Ave. with a decal that said, roughly, "sparky1 and DH's wedding, on date, at place." Very Berkeley/SF/California, very nice all around. She might be persuaded to part with her trade secrets on getting them.
JZ, I have many, many fonts. I'm drawing a blank on what the Firefly one looks like, but if you'll remind me I might have something I'd be happy to send.
JZ, I have Nuptial plus another calligraphic font that may be closer. I've got to run out right now, but I can send them to you in a couple of hours.
Toddson, this page at least has the words "Firefly" and "Serenity," and the marketplace page linked to at the top of that page has a picture of the DVD set, which has a nice clear non-blurry lower-case "firefly" on the cover.
I need to get my boss to go away for a day or two, so I can set aside some time to go browsing around for free fonts. I lost so many pretty fonts when they replaced my computer a couple of months ago!
eta:
Ginger, that would be fabulous! Profile addy is good. I'm on a Mac, though; does that completely screw it up?
OK, if Ginger's font doesn't work out, let me know - like I said, I have bunches and I'm happy to share. I'm not getting here very often, but my profile address is good.
And fonts, I think, are OK. I think.
I'm on a Mac, though; does that completely screw it up?
You're on a Mac?

I confess to highly selfish reasons to be glad the idea of the Aimee Mann concert doesn't quite seem to work. With my plans for Nilly's visit the way they are, if you folks went to that, I'd never get to meet her (I'm busy the night before, too, or I'd be happy to do the Sabbath visit).
