yeah Amy - the snow closings (6 days? really SIX SNOW DAYS in two weeks is enough already) killed me - and work has gone... actually there's no word I know of for this level of nuttiness. Want to collaborate ?
Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

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

I can definitely write to Philly hotels to see about group rates and stuff, would that help? I have stayed downtown several times and have a fairly good idea of the layout.

Because books.
It would, java, if you're offering. I've got freelance work and Daisies stuff this week, and we had two snow days last week, plus Sara now looks to have an ear infection. And then there's a book deadline looming.
Sox, I feel you! ::clings::

I realized, too, I can pimp all the great reasons to visit Philly in a heartbeat but I've never actually stayed in a hotel there, and have no idea where to start.
And then I look at everything I have to do this week, let alone this week, and I want to curl up and cry.

Okay, why don't we take it to email? I am happy to help. I will ask boyfriend to help me, too, since he firmly believes that Philly is second only to Paris in the list of World's Greatest Cities! (I roll my eyes forever at this)

Well, at least he puts Paris first, as is right and proper.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm not sure I'd rank Philly as high as second, but it's definitely underrated. Plenty to do in and around the city to make a weekend.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I'm kind of hoping that Philly gets chosen for the f2f, but I am admittably biased. I'm proud to be a Southerner, but Philly will always have a piece of my heart.

I've never been to Philly and it's easy to get to for me, so I'm leaning that way. But, other cities have a chance to steal my vote!
