F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?  

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

NYista alert!

The plans for tonight are as follows: Anyone who wants to come over to my place and watch movies should show up around 7-ish. Around 9:30, people will start heading over to msbelle's to say hi to Nilly and hang out and play board games.

Directions to both apartments have been posted to the NYista mailing ist.

We had a fabulous time! I will post pictures later tonight. Take pity on me: I am now voiceless.

Dear Deb,
Having a great time in the Northeast! Wish you were here!
Love,
Your Laryngitis

See? It misses you! Please take it back? Please?

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

A table might be useful, Heather. What I'm really wondering is if I should call up the places who are offering the higher nightly rates to find out what's available in the way of hospitality suites or Prom Space or whatever info they haven't given me yet. I was reflexively writing them off in my head, but I can call them if we want the info.

I think that if you really like the hotel, you could call them up and say ā€œIā€™m doing a get together and your rates are too high for your hotel to be considered. Any chance you could adjust them?ā€

Vortex is on to something.

I like the tactic of asking what the venue can do for you price wise, hearing the alternatives (and or hemming and hawing) and closing with this is what we'd like to pay.

It never hurts to negotiate and, depending on their event bookage, you can sometimes get great prices and additional amenities simply by letting the venue talk itself into accomodating you.
