I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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!

I'm going to be staying at the St Louis over MLK Day weekend (Jan 15-17), so if we end up picking that one, I can check anything out that needs to be checked out.

Cool. I'm trying to get to the places we're considering to see them in person, but it looks like it won't happen by the end of October. In any case, actual staying-there experience will certainly be helpful for us if we choose the St. Louis.

I can't even get through a paragraph without getting distracted.

I have e-mailed the New Orleans Fine Hotels people twice and they have not gotten back to me at all. If someone wants to call and pester them for info, the numbers I have are 504-962-5524 and 1-800-510-3450 (phones are not my friends). I did try putting our dates in their web site to check for availability, and was only able to find 5 rooms at the French Market Inn, so I am beginning to doubt how well they can accommodate us.

Our wings are not tired

Excellent. Thanks for the updates on New Orleans stuff. I'm up to my eyeballs in a couple of designs right now (I didn't get home until after 11 tonight...gronk...) but I should be able to help look over things soon and we'll put together a plan of attack for picking our hotel.

Thanks again for your hard work -t and Heather and anyone else who is working on New Orleans stuff that I'm forgetting in my work addled haze right now.

If I only had a brain...

I thought we had decided on New Orleans?

I think the hotel is actually called St. Louis.

Sorry, that's the St. Louis Hotel on Bienville. In New Orleans. I get cryptic when I'm trying to be efficient.

Betsy, I nearly posted the same thing yesterday.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Hee.

t- they're offering to upgrade the rooms at no cost, or they're offering discounted rates on all rooms?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Umm, balcony rooms.

I vote St. Louis.
