Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

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!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Bummer! What's your idea of the day at the zoo?

I would like to see the zoo. But for myself, I had doubts about the F2F being the right time for it in the first place. If people are going, then I will certainly be in that party too, but I'm deeply uncomfortable with the idea of being in any way the primary attraction. Hanging out with people an' doing stuff: good. Becoming a tour guide: bad.

Okay. I expect a zoo trip will be in the offing at any rate there's info.

I just got a reply about the food and bev question, and whether or not the bartender comes out of it:

As far as needing a bartender for your cash bar, no problem. The bartender is not included in the F&B minimum. Only perishables go towards food & minimum.

Insent info to DCLocalistas, and I'll send to Jon in a sec.

I just want to go the zoo because one of my friends who recently moved to DC claims there is no way in. She said she circled the block and couldn't find the entrance.

Granted, this is the same woman who made me walk twenty blocks one visit because she was convinced the museum we were looking for was "just up ahead".

Also? I like the pwetties at the zoo.

She is on crack -- there are big gates at the entrance.

I have no idea how you get a car in, though.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Since the Zoo is part of the Smithsonian, is it free as well?

She is on crack. When I say "circled the block", I mean on foot. I'm telling you, the girl could get lost in a hallway with no turns or doors.

According to their website, yes, it's free. Good stuff.

Yes, the zoo is free.

I'm kind of worried about the expectations people seem to be building up over it -- it's a *nice* zoo, and you can't beat the admission fee, but the thing about "you get what you pay for" applies more for it than for the rest of the Smithsonian.

OTOH, Pandas!

Punishingly Intricate

I have space in Baltimore for 2 or so if anyone needs it for Thursday. Or any F2F night, really.
