I stayed at the airport Marriot once, which had the advantage of the Most Comfortable Bed Evah! and a room with a balcony overlooking the pool area, which was all done up like some sort of grotto. There is a bus terminal two or three blocks away, which got me into Santa Monica very easily. But that is the sum total of my knowledge of LA.
I miss Oz. He'd get it. He wouldn't say anything, but he'd get it.

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!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
A question, mostly for Abi: did you want us (Susan, Aimee, me) to use a standardised city-pimping form? Or should we just rear back and let 'er rip, as lyrical as we choose?

I feel terrible about this, but with everything else that's going on in my life right now, I don't feel like I can get the hotel research and city pimping done in time. If someone else can step up to the plate and get us some estimates and talk about how wonderful Seattle is, I should be able to do the legwork part of the planning later, but between my dad, job search, and writing conference work, I don't have a lot of energy to spare right now.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Ok. So, spiffy new plan. What do you guys think?
We push the deadline back 2 weeks. Pimpage due on the 26th. Voting on September 1st through 5th.
Susan, would that be sufficiently helpful? Jilli, Plei, (anyone else), would you be able to pitch in on the Seattle stuff?
Deb, apart from section headers, I guess more or less however you want.

Abi, is 1-5 September Labor Day? We're still hoping to be at the Renaissance Weekend in Monterey.

Crap. Yeah, it probably is.
I really don't want to push it any further back.

Possibly, though it'd be great if someone could pitch in. My dad's health situation and the job search are likely to be ongoing for the next few months.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
We could start voting on the 30th - it's a Wednesday, if that helps Deb.

I'm pretty easy; I do want to get the actual date settled, so that I can tell the hotel people in SF when it's going to be. But once we decide, whatever it is, that'll be fine.

Alternately, which city Deb is voting for is pretty obvious. You could appoint a proxy or something.
