Huh. Will try again.
'Why We Fight'
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!
Deb, I just checked my caller id. I don't think you left me a message. The last call I had was from my mother's cell phone, 3 hours ago.
I am going to email you my phone number again.
I got a voicemail, a man's voice, repeating the number (it checked with the one you sent me from last week), and I left a message.
Will await the new email.
Shit, my phone is dead. This happened the other day, too. Never mind. I have to call the phone company. Hrrrr. We've had more phone trouble since we moved into this house.
Plei, I need to ask you a couple questions about Halloween. Any chance you can be on AIM tonight late (after about 11:00) or tomorrow after about 7:00?
drive by, drop in post:
rebate.hyatt.com arrived in today's mail addressed to Buffistas F2F. It looks like there's a rebate per # of paid room nights: 25-50 room nights, $500 rebate. 51-100 rooms, $1,000 rebate. They also plug: online books, website hosting for your group on their site for your event, wired high speed Internet, T-Mobile hot spot wireless access (looks like depends on the city).
The catch: booked before 9/30/04 and held in US, Canada or Caribbean by 12/30/04. So, FYI in case any local F2F's want to get together.
Deb, if you end up in the Connecticut area, a fabulous fabulous indie bookstore that has a lot of authors read is R J Booksellers in Madison. The owner, Roxanne, is often on the Faith Middleton show, an NPR radio host who sometimes does "book recommendation" shows. Could be great publicity...
Obviously my house would be yours if you needed a place to stay.
Woot! Thanks, Kristin. If I was going to do the Boston area, I'd want to do a few east coast hits, definitely.
So, anyway, we can take this to email, but it would be lots of fun to hang out in Ohio (Columbus area) the Friday after Thanksgiving. The folks I can think of off the top of my head are Steph, Cashmere and Deena. Anyone else want in on the post-turkey day Columbus OH -area F2F? We can email as the time grows near...
Well, I was supposed to get votes rolling on Monday for the F2F 2005 location but we've still not gotten information on Toronto and there has not been much discussion.
I'm in the midst of a project or two today and can't get to things until tonight but I'd really like to see a summary of hotel prices and such that we have that includes all four cities. It's going to take a little digging through backlog in this thread. I'll try to get to it later tonight unless anyone has some time and feels like tackling it.
