I hope it isn't weird, because I've been thinking the same thing just catching up on the thread! (And now you gals have already covered my pre-PAX nervousness of going the first time! You are, again, ahead of my worries! You gals are incredible.) Oh, and +1 for inclusiveness, I mean, seriously... sheesh... people should get over themselves first.
Wile mimosas beat out bellinis the Diller Room bloody marys beat the snot out of both of them, pull their underwear over their heads and shove them in a locker.
My sentiments exactly. Bloody Marys FTW!
Yaaaay, I'm a representer for something! :-P
This meetup is going to be awesome! Looking forward to it ^_^ (Also, mimosas are FTW but I won't knock the bloody mary until I try it)
Having said that, I've never had a Bellini. It looks like something I'd like. A lot.

I feel like it's been months since I bought my badge and yet PAX is still such a long time away. Oh sigh.

Sacrilege! Oh well. I guess I'll forgive you. Honestly, I'm not too hot on mimosas because of the possibility of errant pineapple poisoning (it's amazing how many fruit juices get bits of pineapple juice in them too--shudder---fruit of the devil), and Bellinis are way too sweet for me. I did have a passing fondness of Bloody Mary's but it faded after a stint overseas and far, far too much cheap vodka mixed with spicy V8. I may have to give one of the Diller ones a try though. These days I guess I drink really boring stuff... scotch, gin, the occasional Kentucky bourbon. Hopefully they have some good gin on hand, like Hendrick's.

Just wait for the Diller Room marys. It's their bartender's specialty. He orders a special vodka that he personally infuses with locally-grown, organic peppers. I've never had another that remotely measured up.
Sounds like a Mary for me... and, apparently, one to ruin all others. Guess it is like the first time I had guacamole in Mexico, I still can't get over it! LOL Now, maybe suggest some food too, since by Sunday I'll be in some sort of nerd-haze I'm beginning to believe.
I don't doubt that other people like pineapple, but I'm deathly, deathly allergic to it. Which sucks, since I'm with family in Kaua'i fairly often, and the entire time, I can never eat out, ever, for fear of fruit of the devil pineapple. Luckily, Kaua'i has enough farmers markets that I can eat fiddleheads, sweet potato greens, and spam to my hearts content with plenty of orange glazed taro to get my citrus fix-safely.

And here I thought this would be a chance to get to know some of the girls I'll be meeting at PAX before actually seeing each other in-person. Ah well, wishful thinking. I apologize if I've steered things off-track. This is still my first PAX and I am still a (complete) noob at all of this.

Awww, Moe just doesn't understand chatty girls hehe. =)

Stick with me - I've been unemployed or at best underemployed since the towers fell, this is my first PAX and I'm getting there on skymiles and staying with a bunch of people I'm just meeting now. I've been told to set aside enough money for a few dinners and bring as many granola bars as fit in my carry-on and the rest of the souvenirs will be free and plentiful. If I can make this crazy idea work, so can you!
PS I totally don't understand why we can talk about the drink options and not get to know each other, but I'm a noob here, so I hope this doesn't cross the mod line. If so, sorry!

I do understand where Moe is coming from. When topics get totally derailed important information can get lost in the thread. However, there is nothing stopping anyone from starting a PAX women's get to know each other thread where just chatting is the topic. There is also a PAX Women Facebook Group that I highly encourage people to join and start chatting. It has been rather quiet.
THANKS! I just asked to join.
Just talked the hubby into finding something to do that morning. So looks like I am in!

Aww, you don't have to do that.
I'm sure my boyfriend will give me money and tell me to go have fun. He asked if I the brunch was being done again and if I wanted to go again. I said, "Yes, please." He's currently taking over all of my debts until I get a new job.

Despite us sounding like a bunch of lushes, this is an all ages event. You are more than welcome to join us.
Unless there is an awesome panel announced, I have nothing planned.
My Vote: Mimosa.
I will make an exception for a Mary though ;)
