Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
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!
Adding to the "people who are flying today" list.
Hi everyone! About to hop a flight back to CT. I had a fabulous time with the DCistas and was so happy to see everyone. Also, I may have brought my friend Jason (who hung out with us all weekend) to the dark side. He may be registering here. Muwahahahahahahaha.
Also, it's my Buffiversary today!
And as you head home I'm sitting at LAX waiting for my flight to Toronto. I'll be having a drink with John Sweden in a few hours.
Well neener to you too!
Ok. Logging off Jason's computer now. He made me food!
I just made reservations at the hotel, [link], and the woman insisted that the price was $119 a night instead of $109.
Tom, she's wrong. I will call the reservation person in the morning. He was supposed to have already corrected the contract (and did so for Jon), so I know it will be fixed. Sorry about the confusion.
They said that when I called to make my reservation - I just said something about having a contract, they checked, and told me I was right.
I'll be making all my reservations the first week of May because I will be broke until then. Will that be ok for the hotel reservation?
Laura, the final day to reserve a room at our block rate is April 20th.
What does it cost to make a reservation? Cuz you don't actually pay the final bill until you check out, right?

In terms of the contract, here are some final important details you should all be aware of:
We have a block of rooms reserved for each night. Here are the numbers: Thurs. 5/19--10 rooms. Friday and Saturday 5/20-5/21--19 rooms. Sunday 5/22--5 rooms. These are ballpark numbers, I know, but I'm walking a fine line. If I reserve too many rooms and we don't fill 90% of our reserved block, we end up being responsible for the difference...so it will be first come, first serve for room rates. However...if the rooms fill up quickly, I can also probably negotiate with Marvin for more at the reduced rate. The absolute cutoff date to get the reduced rate if the block doesn't sell out early is April 20, 2005.
To make a reservation, call 1-800-535-9111 or 504-581-7300. Please identify yourself as part of your group (4th Annual Buffistas F2F Meeting) when making reservations. You cannot make a reservation at the reduced rate online; you'll have to so it by phone. (From the contract): 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.
Rates: Singles Doubles Triples Quads $109.00 $109.00 $129.00 $149.00 My guess, though, is that you could get away with booking a double and having a third person sharing one of the beds. Not that I would encourage such sneakiness, of course.
