I actually may end up going with the other hotel anyway. I didn't want to have to walk several blocks, but right around the corner is fine, and the parking is substantially cheaper.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Huh. If the room rate really is gone like rum, I may be in that other hotel with you, Dana.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
So I have to face facts and admit that I won't be making it to the F2F this year. *cries* You all had better take a TON of pictures & video, IJS.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
You all had better take a TON of pictures & video, IJS.Speaking of... What would be the best way to instantly (or near so) share pics? would that be flikr? Is there an iPhone app for that?

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I had dinner with Cass tonight and she is planning on taking the train, which is starting to sound more appealing than dealing with parking.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I will call the hotel today and check on the rate. There might be an issue of them being totally sold out of that kind of room.
Funds update: $1485.

Just made my hotel reservation with the Monaco. Our block is sold out, and the group rate apparently only applied to the block. They do have a special on, one queen bed for $208/night.
Now to gird my loins and see what a plane ticket will cost.

Not to play devil's advocate, but since our room block is filled, the hotel I made a reservation at was substantially cheaper than that, Zenkitty.

Just got off the phone with our rep - Zenkitty's info is correct, but our rep is willing to give us 2 rooms for Friday & Saturday at the block price. Zen, Dana, let me know if you want those rooms.
My card will be charged on Monday - if peeps have not yet turned in their cash, now would be an awesome time to do so.
