Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

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

One would assume they're standing rather than seated, so pedalling should induce propeller-esque motion.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Oh yeah... no penis. If I had a penis I doubt cycling with it fwapping around would appeal to me.

if it's cold enough, might not be an issue for a lot of gents.

Nope, most of them stay seated and pedal at a leisurely pace.

Naked parachuting is like riding a motorcycle in flipflops. So not a good idea.

So Pete and I checked out the Hotel Nexxus this morning....

...I think daylight savings is eating my brain. Or I'm getting sick. He and I talked and said "yes, is mostly good" but I'm having a hard time making words out of that.

Good things: prom location, though technically only allowed until 10pm, we were told would be allowed to stay until whenever, as long as people who go smoke on terrace are not loud (if we get noise complaints, we get kicked out, but there are no rooms above/below/next to the prom room, so it's only the outdoors part, where smokers would be, that might generate that). We could bring our own booze if we wanted. It'll have a dancefloor, TV/DVD, mic.

Bad thing: the shuttle is a scheduled thing. We did get their printed schedule (they have a couple of those little vans, which run not that frequently--more like once an hour or two, not every 15 minutes). Which given the number of us and how we tend to do things...yeah. Unlikely to be super useful. Parking is free, though, so if some people got rental cars, they could work it out. And it is near a transit hub and all that jazz, so shit could be worked out.

The hospitality suite is...a suite. Though the one she showed us had a connecting door to another king size room, so if we coudl work it so that we had that room too, that'd be nice. The rooms are....rooms. It's a motel--the rooms open to the outdoors. OTOH, in June, Seattle will likely be nice. There's a pool. The highway is very nearby, so there's a fair bit of noise from that, but you can't really hear it from the rooms.

It's seriously cheaper than the other options.

I'll be contacting the other two options this afternoon.
