Bit the bullet

I bit the bullet and called to book the hotel for my convention. It was $109/night. Which was more than the web rate, but oh well. At least I get a "special" "present." The woman on the phone was extremely helpful. That helped a lot.

 

Now, to buy the tickets.

 

I briefly thought I had a letter from Tom today and nearly had a heart attack. At this point, I honestly would not be surprised if he didn't reply at all. Which sucks, because I think that if I had a chance to really badger him, I could get an answer, but I think that would really, really bother him. It's a sad situation. Maybe he's been out of town the whole time. I'll just tell myself that. It's a vacation period of time, anyway.
