Oh, this works out so nicely. I was just about to bite the bullet and sign up for four nights by my lonesome, which is not very budgetarily friendly.
'Conviction (1)'
F2F 4: Too Much Candy, Never Enough Mojitos.
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.
So it's going to be me, Ailleann, and Theo sharing a room? Theo, were you thinking of also rooming with smonster?
Just heard from smonster, and she's happy to share a room with us. She's only going to be there for Friday & Saturday nights as well. Ailleann & Theo: does it make more sense, financially, for her & me to get our own room for those two nights, and for you two to share a room for your four nights? Or is it cheaper to just get the room with two double beds for all four nights? I haven't looked at the prices yet.
Our discounts go as follows:
Single (1 Full size bed) $62.95
Queen (1 Queen size bed) $77.35
Double (2 Full size beds) $86.35
Suite (1 Queen size bed with a sitting area) $95.35
If we all share, it's going to end up being cheaper for everyone, because we'll be splitting four ways. ($21 for Friday and Saturday nights!)
Of course, if you don't want to try and cram four of us in one room, we could switch out. I have no problem sharing, as cheap = good and people = fun. But it might be Too Much People.
Insent to Ailleann, Theo, & smonster. I did some calculations and am leaning toward the two separate singles option, but am not wedded to it.
None of the hotel rooms are what you'd call "large." At least, unlike a lot of city hotels, the hotel is in the midst of restaurants and coffee shops and there's a big park about two blocks away, so there are a lot of places to escape the humans.
Oh, shit, you're all getting me all melty and full of F2F cravings. Which is so far beyond irresponsible that you can't even see irresponsible from where I am. But, damn, y'all.
Unless her plans change drastically, Katie Bee should be there, and she's promised to be my hug proxy. I plan to give her a detailed annotated list of who's due for smooching, groping and non-carnal but thoroughly affectionate tacklehugs. And maybe a JZ avatar, because, looking back at the old F2F pictures, the avatars were really quite creative and nifty.
Katie Bee! That is such good news. Excellent choice for a hug proxy because she is very huggable. We will still miss you so very much.
JZ, the avatar answer is clearly to send Matilda with Katerina Bee, as her lap child on the plane. She flies free!
So I just bought my plane ticket.
Nervous now!
