Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

The status is NOT quo.

I'm envious of all the Buffista face time but so happy for those involved!

Pix! I'm going to be in LA for a conference in October. (More details later. It's going to be another one of those whirlwind things where I'm going to be trapped in downtown without a car, so not ideal, but I hope we can work something out! At least I'll be there on a Saturday.)

Anyway, the promised Strix first Fernet pictures:

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Sox,

I will also be in Chicago for WorldCon(along with my husband). Dunno our schedule quite yet, but maybe we can meet up somewhere.

Amyth!!! Let me know!

not your mom's socks.

Aurelia - cool. I know a couple nights are spoken for because of the con, but I'm hoping we can connect somehow.

Sheryl - I have most of my schedule (2 panels, workshop, reading), so when you have yours, we can sort it offline?

Sox,

Sure! Neither of us are actually on a programming items, so it'll be a matter of figuring out what we want to do.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

BWAHAHA!

Those photos don't even capture the pathos that was my face!

Hi, all. I am home in KC after an uneventful plane ride. Southwest has good coffee, yo. And I got home and promptly fell into bed for a 4 hours nap.

WOO.

NC was FUN! I saw amyth and Calli and amyth and her DH (who looks amazingly like one of my best guy friends!) and Hayden and Darth! I like the area; it's very pretty!

I had 2 Durhamites (iced tea, lemonade and vodka, hell YEAH), bacon cheese fries, which is the food of the gods, a Carolina Shandy, which is beer made palatable by the generous application of lemonade and the aforementioned Fernet, which is, as the bottle proclaims twice...unique.

It was like a meadow soaked in alcohol. I...don't even know. "Unique" is certainly not wrong.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

which is beer made palatable

This phrase makes me sad.

I know, Nora. I'm sure it was Very Nice Beer; I am a shame to my Irish/Scots/German ancestors. But the only way I drink beer is generally on a really hot day, in a really cold river, with a shitton of lemon added to generally a Boulevard (local brew) Wheat.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

This phrase makes me sad.

Sometimes I don't know how you're friends with me. I keep trying! At least I date people who like beer!

WOOT! I am so excited about this I would start a fuckyeahamyth tumblr, if I had the time. And knew how Tumblr worked.

Hell, I might GET a Tumblr if such a thing existed.

It was like a meadow soaked in alcohol.

Ahahaha. Like a movie so bad it's good, Fernet is so disgusting it's awesome.
