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.

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

So, any news?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The work that I had scheduled on Saturday, June 26 was canceled!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm not in Providence, but I can make some phone calls if that's what's needed. We really need to get something concrete happening if this is going to happen at all.

Sorry, I have made a few attempts to contact the woman I have been working with, who is usually very good at getting back to me, but she hasn't gotten back to me.

Hampton Inn has some good reviews on tripadvisor.com.

Trudy, those look like some good options. I need to look them up, but the airport hotel is probably not actually in Providence, since the Providence airport is not.

I have heard back from the Marriott, and they are ubfortunately completely booked for our weekend.

We should probably make up our minds and announce the thing.

Hampton Inn looks like the better location.

OK, just spoke to Orbitz, Hampton Inn only has one room left so that's out.

If we stay outside Providence proper we'll get a better deal on rooms. Looking at those now.

Ok, I've booked a room at the Sheraton Providence Airport Hotel [link]

If we want to stay there we should announce it and get to booking the thing.
