I would always try Hotwire/Priceline if you're flexible about where you stay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Dang. I checked the Chateau Tivoli, but its $100/night Joaquin Miller and Jack London rooms are booked solid through July.
ISTG someday I'm going to go bananas and host a decadent F2F of decadence in the Luisa Tetrazzini suite.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Those look nice! Next time we'll have to plan a trip more in advance.
Did I mention Monica's gonna visit me in Chicago the week of Memorial day? And Monica's been invited to present a paper at a naval history conference in Annapolis in September so I'm probably going to join her for it.

tommy, I'm glad to hear you'll get to see so much of her over the next few months! The naval history conference sounds cool.
Gud, ~ma to you!

Kate, how is the weather holding up down there? We have had rain, but no violent storms (yet). I share your tornado fear.

Some private rooms are sold out, but we can get one with a shared bath for $94 a night, which I'd be happy with. But we could probably find a cheaper hotel in SF--any thoughts?
The building itself looks fine and new. The location is above market and near Union Square, but it's a wee bit sleezy as you head towards the Tenderloin (if you walked three blocks the wrong way you'd be surrounded by drug deals and tranny hookers. Which may be a feature, not a bug).
You'd be very close to the Apple Store!
It is very centrally located for transit, or even just walking down to the Ferry Building.
The Carl Hotel is a good deal and many buffistae have stayed there over the years for cheap, simple, non-fancy, clean lodging.

tommyrot, it sounds like Monica likes carrots. Which makes me very happy for her and you and carrots.

Oh my giddy aunt - STOP REPLYING ALL TO TELL PEOPLE TO STOP REPLYING ALL. Geeeeeeeesh. One person even sent "We get the point, stop repying all" and sent it to ALL.

STOP REPLYING ALL TO TELL PEOPLE TO STOP REPLYING ALL.
But then how will everyone know to stop replying to all? YOU CAN'T STOP THE SIGNAL.

I've been in the Tenderloin a few times. Never bought drugs or picked up a tranny hooker, though.

Yeah, something like that.
