Work is a constant threat to the FTC, and lately it has threatened to overrun the members of the FTC to the point of collapse.
Luckily, there is one sole member who has remained ever-faithful, ever-enduring and utterly devoted to keeping the FTC up and running. If it were not for her loyalty and dedication, it is unlikely that the FTC were still be up and running.
Thank goodness for Lil Essums - without her, the FTC would be extinct.
Hopefully the rest of the FTC will be on board in the next few days, and will not let the tyrant be victorious over this powerful club.

FTC Trip
It is time to start planning the annual FTC trip.
To date, the FTC has been to Park City, UT (2008), Santa Fe, NM (2009) and now has need to begin thinking about a trip for 2010. In order to begin saving bones, make accommodations with significant others, etc. brainstorming should be seen as imperative in the next meeting of the FTC.
The following items should be discussed:
Another item could be added to to whether or not significant others should/could be included. Of course, unnecessary difficulties may arise if the FTC were to open up their trip to include more people. Namely, 1) Difficulty in accommodating visitors by way of hotel, transportation, etc. 2) Added cost 3) The fact that one FTC member does not have a significant other - easily remedied, I'm sure and 4) differences of opinion and interests to appease. This member says, now that she thinks about it, it is probably best to keep the trip exclusive to the founding members of the FTC.

- When
- How much money

In Which S Complains quite formally...
The unauthorized disbandment of the FTC is to be punished as soon as possible. Our meetings have lessened, our posts completely obliterated. Someone should be hanged for insubordination. For future reference, no one is allowed to go out of town for so long without figuring out a way for the FTC to be together.
That means, Fern's trip to Argentina has been canceled, unless she can provide a ticket for the other two co-founding members of the FTC to join her. Also, all trips to Burley, ID and Troy, OH are forbidden unless formally approved by the FTC.
Ignored texts, emails and other such forms of communication shall be tried as high treason and ultimate disloyalty to the FTC. Punishments will be determined by offended parties.

In which I argue that I deserve a birthday post from my Weaky...
Weaky, if you love me, you will post a most complimentary and fawning tribute to me on my birthday—8 days from now, lest ye forget. If you choose to flout my demand, know that you will face swift and ugly retribution. Also, you'll be dumped. Act wisely.
The end.
The end.

New blog
The Finer Things Club has a new (and more updated) blog that will be more informative. We have started a book blog - thanks to Linus aka Weiner. Her inspiration, and her frequent posts are sure to be more entertaining and inspiring than this little old blog has ever been.
The Book Off can be found at www.the-book-off.blogspot.com
You should definitely check it out for our thoughts on the many books that we read.

Happy Birthday Weiner!
Apparently the FTC uses birthdays as a form of twisted celebration. And Pepper's birthday was no different. Showered with gifts like such as dicktarts and the aforementioned item above show just how far S and Fern were willing to make Pep's birthday memorable.
The three-day celebration concluded with Fern and Pepper's first-ever pedicure. It was so relaxing... even if they were late and uptight about the whole thing. Acadyia is a teaching school, though, and so while the price was good...the technicians were students. And I guess you get what you pay for.
After all the celebrations and gifts, the FTC ensured that Weiner ushered in her 25th birthday so that she may never forget it.
We also found where we can supply everyone with dicktarts.
