Yaoi Con

[dragonimp]

HOLY SHIT yaoi con is early this year. I thought it was still going to be late October again so I thought I had some time. But according to the website pre-reg is over and the hotel block is already sold out. Yikes.

So, uh ... who's planning to go? IS anyone planning to go? Any hotel plans yet? I need to figure out if this is something I can afford.

Anyone?

I do have that one-person futon, if space is the main issue. If Fiance is wary in general a hotel could work, too - we'll have to see what has rooms available.

511.org says there's a bus route between the station and the Con hotel, and also insists that there's a walking route that goes over the freeway on Broadway (says it takes 13min). Zooming in on Google maps, I can't tell if it actually has sidewalks or not! on Streetview it looks like it has narrow ones that may not be fun to walk on, depending on traffic. But it does look like there's a bus that goes most of the way, so that might be our best option.

Yeahhhh, a lot of it is also just that we're the only people who ever spend any time in this place, so (a) we live half out of boxes and crap because we're lazy; (b) we're used to being unguarded weirdos all the time; (c) there is embarrassing crap strewn around everywhere with reckless abandon.

That said! This look doable to you? Last time I was actually there was before they remodeled, and it looks like their rooms are actually sorta nice now… Let me know if it looks all right to you, and I'll go ahead and snag you a room. It is literally five minutes away from our place even if you catch all red lights, and it's right next to the highway onramp.

PFFFFF, my master plan is falling apart more by the minute… Though the bus thing is pretty great! Although a downside that I just discovered about the bus is that it comes at hr:24 and hr:54 on weekends, whereas the trains get in at hr:03. On the plus side, there's a Starbucks half a block down, so maybe we could just go get some coffee during the twenty minute wait…

homfg. Apparently this con does NOT want us to get there, so fuck you, YaoiCon; we're going to have the best time ever. XD'' Also! I have to swing by my parents' place tomorrow night and trade my new car in for the old Cargone car so that my stepdad can take it into a body shop Saturday for an estimate on how bad I fucked it up last month… so that's fun too.

Anyway! Let me know what you think… and I can text you my address later tonight or tomorrow!

That made me laugh because, um, this is our house. But yeah, I understand that :). Mom and I looked around at the hotels in the area and I went ahead and booked at the Inn of Los Gatos, since it looked like all the decent ones were around that same price - don't worry about paying for it, I was originally planning to pay for a hotel anyway.

…omg, looks so much like home. And like my mom's house, too. I think it's safe to say our families are cut from the same cloth. X'D

NOOO I WAS TOTALLY GOING TO SPOT YOU FOR IT. Shame on you. ♥ Okay, gonna set myself a reminder to text you my address in a couple hours – basically you just hang a left at the intersection outside the Inn, going onto 9, and then keep going on 9 until you pass N. Santa Cruz and the Chevron, and then there will be a little left-turn lane. On your right is a cleaner's and a body shop and on your left there's a bank or something, and then once you turn onto the street we're just a block down. ^^
