Hey! Now Shir's Chicago travel plans coincide with mine! I'll have to make sure I'm in the loop wrt Chicago plans!
Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'll have to wait until your next trip to see you, Shir, because I'll be in Ireland while you're in the US! You're visiting four great cities and seeing some great people, and there will be cities and people left to tempt you to come back!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
That's really gonna happen. I jumped with joy in my office when I got the call from the travel agent.
Yippee!!

Our wings are not tired.
Awesomeness. Now I just have to figure out if we travel to Seattle, LA, Chicago, or NOLA to visit with you. Decisions...

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Starting to pin down details for my (substantially less exciting than Shir's) trip to LA this weekend. Are any LAistas close enough to the Westlake/Thousand Oaks area to be up for dinner (or movie or whatever) on Friday night?

Silly Shir, she thinks she can avoid me by not coming to SF. I mock her with my monkey pants.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Chicago is closer than NOLA but still quite far for me. I wish I could make it but I don't think I can. *sob*

Javachik, d'oh! and here I thought she was just across the Bay.
Oh bummer, sorry no SF visit, but it is nice to have more time in the other places. Pt. Townsend is *awesome.* Dear friends live there and I've been up there the last three, four summers. Lots to do and see.

So I'm going to fly a friend from an on-line book group out here to house/cat sit for me. We met at a F2F/book signing a few years ago.
Here's the sitch -- she's in or near Des Moines, Iowa. I'm not finding any direct flights out of Des Moines via travelocity, or United, and I know you get penalized for doing lots of searches.
Here's the question -- now that I know about Allegiant Airlines, the weirdo airline that flies between Oakland and Eugene, Oregon twice a week only, I wonder if there are other weirdo airlines like that in the midwest? If I could fly her cheaply to Denver, then UAL has lots of flights. Or cheaply to Austin, then Jet Blue (non searchable except on its own site) goes to Oakland.
Seasoned travelers have suggestions?
