The person I'm most worried about is Pat, I don't know for sure if he's coming down, and I really have no way of contacting him except for e-mail, but who knows if he checks that?
Also, he's staying LONGER, so I really need to know if he's coming/planning. I'm so paranoid. T_T

Have you tried e-mailing him already, and he hasn't responded? Because you could always send one with large capital letters screaming that you need to know ASAP. That's what I usually do to get someone's attention. Big letters will do that.

I'll also throw in an angry face afterwards, just for emphasis. ^_^

The Angry Face Kills HIM! D< I will be putting the down payment on the hotel rooms, after Trey and I call/visit which will probably be after I get my new debit card.

And as promised, I will beat up anyone who doesn't pay promptly. *growl*
Also, I have been fare shopping for airfares, and the prices have dropped somewhat. The current lowest price I have found is 354.00 round trip, on Continental Air, with one stopover in Chicago.

I will pay promptly! I promise!
Huzzah for cheaper airfare! Hey, I am all for saving $36, and I've herad Continental Air is pretty good. I usually fly Spirit when I'm flying in the US, so I don't know the quality of too many others.

Ohgodsoboredinlecture. Any news on the hotel yet? I want to order my pass, but I'd rather not unless I know for a fact that I have somewhere to shower when I go down there. Ditto airplane. And have we had any contact with Pat?

I would have liked to go today, but it is too late now. We can't tomorrow because I'm closing.

Please no spamming this thread. Though I will answer your question. Bubbles came to Cali two years ago, for Anime Expo. Jones, Clover, Bubbles, Trey and I met up last year for Anime North, where we met Aindel as well though she didn't use to post back then. Roha is Trey's and my friend from high school. We haven't met Melon, but we all love her like loads and want to meet her. That is all ya.

Spammich, I already told you mine, yus, but I'm assuming that the rooms have been reserved?
Okay. It's official that I have my job this summer, which means I will have the money available for travel--it does, however, mean I will only be spending the originally planned days; factory work isn't flexible, and since this is my first summer, I don't want to ruin my chances of being rehired.
However, mother has said that if I can get the days off, she will drive us down to Buffalo, which will work nicely enough in getting us over the border. However, I'd like to know how many people will be driving down with us-- ... Ideally, for packing purposes, especially if Pat is coming.
Do we have any news with that, incidentally? He's dropped off my radar preeeetty good.
EDIT: I've just checked with a couple of online discount airfare places (I'll talk to my mom, make sure that everything on the site seems legitimate, as I've no desire to take risks with this sort of shit), and I decided to be a smart little cookie and input new locations-- Basically, I checked prices for: BUF-->LAX LAX-->YYZ
Which means that the Canadians will leave from Buffalo, and return to Toronto, thus making it easier for all people involved. Less travel over borders.
The cheapest flight is United Airlines, with one stopover, coming in at 492.00 USD. That's factoring taxes, ect.
I'll keep looking closer to the date, and my mom has started checking the databases for prices, but as she deals in the Caribbean, we might be on our own for price lists. However, if we wanted to go to, say, Cuba instead, she could totally hook us up. >XD ------- Do we want to fly into Buffalo both ways and pay my mom for gas? Or do we want to fly into Toronto and pay extra for convenience?
Here's the Pay Scale, for the record, in Canadian, with taxes: YYZ-->LAX LAX-->YYZ round trip: 464.835
BUF-->LAX LAX-->YYZ round trip: 503.144
BUF-->LAX LAX-->BUF round trip: 359.973
Feedback?

If your mom is willing to drive us, I'm all for that. Plus, my own mother is freaked out by the idea of me travelling so far alone, so that pretty much means that I have to travel with the group. Not that I mind. Flying by yourself sounds pretty damn boring. I'm all for cheap and convenient airfare, so if it's easiest for us to come back to Toronto, that works for me. However, if we could possibly swing coming back in to Buffalo, too, I like the idea of saving $140. But I totally understand the lack of convenience with that, so whatever works best for everyone else is cool with me.
