Apparently, it's never too early to think about Dragon*Con

[featherynscale]

Hotel is booked. We're at the Hyatt, because they told us there were no rooms at the Marriott. Con is damned well nine months away and there are no rooms at the Marriott. This astonishes me. I guess we'll have to make the reservation for 2008 as we're leaving Atlanta at the end of 2007's event. I don't know.

This means that we spent a chunk of time working out the trip logistics last night between midnight and 1 a.m., which is always fun. It looks like our plan will be something like this: (presented mostly for the edification of wildnsquirrelly, matchgirl42, niveus_tigris, and archway [and anybody else that was thinking of dragging along with us])
- Leave Thursday, Aug 30, in the very early morning.
- Get in to Atlanta Thursday night. Have dinner and check kittenpants into the art show.
- Sleep in a Motel 6 or some such thing Thursday night.
- Come in Friday morning and register for Con. Check into the Hyatt.
- Do Con.
- Leave from Atlanta Monday, early afternoon.
- Get back to KC at 0:Dark-Thirty.
- Go back to work Tuesday morning, like fools.


Also, I'm going to need to update my con icon.

Call the hotel directly two weeks before con. And then again the week of. And, if you want to be extra special safe, the day before you leave. Because I have seen those monkeys fuck up what should be the relatively simple job of moving a stack of easles from one room to another. The stories I have heard in the past of their inability to hang on to reservations are truly mind boggling.
