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

Southwest usually runs around $100, give or take, each way from the Bay Area. Occasional specials drop it into the $80 range.

The status is NOT quo.
Do you have a pro account that can take credit cards? ND does if you would like us to collect.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
A few things I've learned from event planning:
- if a suite is going to be used as a group gathering place but the people who are staying there are checking out on Sunday, ask for a guarantee of a late checkout; 3:00 is usually doable
- for the catering minimum, confirm that it is a combination of all three components (room, food, drink) and that there isn't a minimum for each; sometimes, the hotel will try to enforce a food charge minimum since that one usually provides the hotel with a hefty profit (people rarely eat as much as they think they will and generally drink more)
- try to get some idea of how the drink charges will be handled. Are you paying for a set amount and they'll close the bar when it is reached? Is there a set amount but you can arrange for someone to be asked before new bottles are opened? Will they just keep pouring and then present a bill?
