Yay, I am leaving on Friday and going HOME! (Real Home!)

Things I need to do before eleven o clock on Friday:

Find:
*My copy of the first Sluggy megatome. It's somewhere in the house, it HAS to be. Rar. (Not going to say where this was in order to avoid undue drama. Oops.)
*My gold fishnets. See above note. Idea: Check Aly's room, laundry. :P (Was in the laundry room)
*My drivers permit. Like, hellafind, since they won't let me past airport security without it. (Was in my backpack. Found it about a week after I got to Boston)
*My box of lemony cookies, since I could've SWORN they were in my room, and, well...they don't appear to be.

Make sure I have packed:
*The stuff that's hanging up in my closet (Tailcoat!) (Into my purple box of costuming go they!)
*Magus's phonecords Mom has them packed in her backpack. Close enough.
*My copy of the Pirates Mixed Up Voyage which I have and I am so happy and eee! (Check and doublecheck this one, because it is IMPORTANT. Also, this goes in the same bag as Vera. No questions)
*MY phonecords and assorted chargers.
*[livejournal.com profile] tacnukesoul's number in my cell
*The message for zyxwvut in a form *other* than on Vera

Pack if I can:
*Some Units-clothes-things (in a bag for mum to carry? :D) (Yay, thanks mom!)
*Assorted card-based games to force upon Lauren and Emily (Beyond Fluxx and Junglespeed, which they enjoyed)

Do:
*Charge cellphone
*Charge camera
*Clean guest room out from when Katters stayed >>
*Make sure my room is down to just clutter (no foodtrash)
*Write check for mom for Lauren and Emily's presents
*Back up Vera before she goes travelling
*Finish packing
*Sleep (Wednesday-Thursday) (3:15/30ish to about noon. Nineish hours, yo!)
*Sleep (Thursday-Friday) (4 to 8:30 or so. Yes, I am a moron, etc, all that, woo.)

Figure out:
*Hokay, so, Arisia is at a hotel. And I need to get to this hotel somehow. From the airport. And I don't know what this hotel is called, or what T-stop I need to get off at.
*What exactly my Highly Eclectic airplane outfit is going to look like. (Hokay, I have a top hat that won't fit in my bags, and I have to wear my trenchcoat...)
*Who I know in Boston who has a copy of 'Good Omens' that I can borrow (Ria is hopefully going to lend me her copy. Of course, she's putting it in the "to mail" box at her house, so it will arrive at Lesley...eventually.)

*checks Hiveminder to make sure she's not missing anything*
(God I love this program. I love that I can have things like "Bake a 'stand up and fuck' cake" and "Write 'The Life and Times of Nellie Lovett'" right next to things like "Pack to go Home" and "Do Laundry". Seriously, the closer I get to using this properly (V.Important: Have it in the bookmarks bar at the top of the screen, where it's in plain view. Makes a world of difference) the better my life will be. Plug out)

Arisia is at the Hyatt Regency Cambridge. Take the Silver Line bus from Logan to South Station, hop onto the Red Line, go to Central Square and then find the Arisia shuttle bus to the hotel.
With love from your helpful Bostonian guide,
Jeff

Also, don't wear a trenchcoat on the airplane. The security will murder you. Remember the light up Aqua Teen Hunger Force fiasco a while back? Please don't cause a repeat of that.

I...think I have to, just because there will be no way to get it into my luggage, and I don't have anything else as warm to wear in Boston.

If it helps, my trenchcoat is big and black and scary...and has little plush flowers with smily faces all down the buttonholes. And I did manage to wear it out of Boston.

I always wear my trenchcoat while flying. What is an aqua teen hunger force? Security often asks you to remove coats, hats, and shoes while going through the gate anyway, seems to me.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force is some television show that got turned into a movie a while back. The marketing firm came up with an advertisement campaign that involved putting light-up toys of some of the characters in buses throughout the city. Some idiots thought that they were bombs and shut down the public transportation in the city, shut down the ports and wound up wasting a ton of money this way.

*frown* Have they changed the shuttles? Last year they were running them from the Kendall/MIT T stop.

Does either of you have a copy of Family Fluxx that you could bring to the hotel by Sunday?

P.S.: Whoooooooooooo!

Not I --My family only owns German, 3.0, 3.1, and pre-1.0 (The latter two which I will have with me)

Sorry.

I'm afraid not. I think the only Fluxx variant I have is EcoFluxx.

See you tomorrow, though!

I've no idea. I was going by the information on the Arisia website.

Eee, plotting and scheming!

If only all that plotting & scheming could come to fruition.. then either i'd end up in Boston to lend you the book in person or i would have luuurred you down here to borrow it! ;)

I can bring my copy of Good Omens with me? I don't know why I haven't brought it before, except for the superstition that bringing a book about the apocalypse on an airplane makes for bad juju

Hoshit, I need to return that before we leave. Rar.

You can wear your tophat, just make sure it goes through the X-ray scanner with your bags. I've worn my fedora to the airport a bunch of times and never had any problem with it.

Sorry, probably cannot get you a Fozzie before you leave. But your request has been noted, and I imagine whenever I get your Christmas present to you, it will be delivered with a Fozzie for long-term loan.

Hey, wait, what? I missed this to-do item the first reading.

Z

P.S.: Why am I on a second reading? I'm reading my [livejournal.com profile] arisia-attendees filter, that's why. %-}
Posted by [identity profile] kdsorceress.livejournal.com
You did get it. It was the thing from [livejournal.com profile] muzikmaker21 being all "can't wait to have wild sex go to the North Market again" thing.

Also, that sounds like an incredibly useful filter.
