chhotiiSo, apparently, Arisia hotel bookings opened up and they are going fast.
Being cheap, I got a King rather than a Double. Supposedly cots are "possibly" at an extra cost. Is the extra cost for real or not? If so, I can bring along an air mattress for Sophia, which might get inflated if she doesn't just crash out next to me on the big bed.
Weirdly, the hotel is apparently sold out of rooms in our blocks for Sunday night. Huh? Why would there be more people staying for Arisia on Sunday night than Friday or Saturday? People tend to start to leave the con on Sunday. Or did our SMOF overlords over-estimate the extent to which that would happen, and reserve a much smaller block for Sunday night than for the previous 2 nights? Oh, well, it may very well make more sense for us to leave on Sunday too. I'm not clear on whether Rich is supposed to work on MLK day. Sophia has that day off school, of course, but we should probably take the extra day at home to do laundry and so on.
Rumor has it that deguspice is starting a list of who to put in the kid ghetto; ceo asked about this and was reassured that his family was already at the top of the list! Should make sure that we are on that list too, as being in the kid ghetto was useful last year for organizing mass attacks on the swimming pool, group pizza orders, etc.
