Lyra, I won't be dressed up, because, as I occasionally angst about in Bitches, my current clothing budget is slim-to-nonexistent, and anything I buy has to be very, very, very practical.
Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

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!

Hey kids. It sounds like I'm going to miss a lot of fun in Seattle.
I'm here to ask where we are on the New Orleans info though. It's been very quiet and I really really really want to get these last decisions made about which hotel so that we can get the contracts pulled up and signed and lock in some good rates.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

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

Huzzah! That just leaves Seattle, and possibly the drive from San Fran to L.A. (Though I can do that on my own.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Billytea, I have some thoughts about the drive from SF to LA. Once I am awake enough to collect them and make sure they are coherent, I will email you about it.
That may not be for a while though. LIke maybe my lunch time.
