I'm considering flying into Chicago and renting a car.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

tommyrot, you might want to mention that to Cashmere. She's going to be doing the initial rounds of negotiating with hotels. Having alternate options might be a good thing for her to have ready to deal with.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Tommy, email me with their info, if they have it to hand. I've already started a spreadsheet to do cost comparisons of the hotel venues. If it's cheaper to use an outside caterer, we'll definitely want options.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, I'll email them and get back to you....

Thanks, Tommy!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Hey, we might need catering for the Prom, right? My sis and her GF are excellent caterers....
Squee!!!!
Can we meet the snephews?
(if we promise not to call them snephews)

Our wings are not tired
it is one of the weekends I think ND and I should both be able to make...hopefully...
If I have the time off, I'm half tempted to make a road trip out of it.

What kind of timeline should we be looking at for choosing the venue? I've got the spreadsheet started and SailAweigh sent me the proposals so I can finish it. Once I get a good comparison up, we can post them and let folks vote on a venue.
If we decide by the end of March, that gives us April and May to budget and figure out fundage.

Possibly. Sis and GF will probably want to meet my "weird internet friends."
(I'm not sure if they ever actually used that phrase.)

From LA? That's a long drive. But fun! (I'll have to do it again one of these years.)

Yeah, it is crazy long, but I've done the one to Cincinnati from here or San Diego more than once and it's fun to be able to see different parts of the country that way. It depends on it we have the time and if Kristin is game to spend that much time in the car.
