Woohoo! I just got the okay for the week off March 20-25, so it looks like my midwest trip is on.
F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!
All the hotels I've stayed in, however, have charged me the first night's rate about a month in advance to "hold" the room.
My experience is you don't get charged till you check in. If you ditch the reservation without calling to cancel (usually 24-48 hours in advance) they will charge your card on file one night's stay.
From Kristin's post about the hotel, KristinT "F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?" Dec 30, 2004 3:50:48 pm PST
A first night’s deposit by check or credit card will be due 10 days after the reservation is made to guarantee the room. Individual cancellations or changes must be received by May 6, 2005 or a first nights room rate will be forfeited.
Thanks DX, I was just thinking I should Nilly that.
Thanks, SA. I've marked your post for future reference.
F2F Money update.
We're still plenty ahead of the game but just wanted to let folks know that we've had money for overall weekend charges start to trickle in and we've also had some requests for help with room/travel expenses.
Money can be sent via PayPal at stagesound@earthlink.net or email me and I'll give you my snail mail address so that you can send a check.

YAY!!
YAY!!
I KNOW. I just made my airplane reservations, so I will post it in LJ soon. Next up, figuring out where to stay and what to do for the week. Yay!
It's looking like I'm going to be in NYC from Feb 13th to the 16th. That's the same time that Kristin is in town as it happens.
I'm teaching a class for the Broadway sound techs so I'll be busy all day Monday and Tuesday. It looks like I'll fly in Sunday evening and leave Wednesday afternoon at this point.
I'm training in on the 14th for my NYistas birthday bash. I'll be heading back the next day. But yay! More to play!

And actually, I was waiting until we got closer, but as it's only a few weeks away and Drew brought it up...Any NYista who would like to join me for a 30th birthday gathering, we are celebrating in NYC on Monday the 14th! Trudy, Jessica & DH, my [gasp] non-Buffista friend Kat, Tom Scola, Drew, and others had all said they might join up to take me out and get me drunk show me a good time hang out with me. The more the merrier!
Sorry about the odd date. My actual birthday is on the weekend, but Dave is taking me out to a fancy-pants restaurant and doing the couple thing, so I'm not free then.
Alas, the 14th isn't the 3rd Monday, so no trivia...but I'm looking for suggestions. I have faith we can get in trouble even on a weeknight.
