Tiff and Cam Present the return of The official B*tches of Eastwick Thread — Page 466

Of course you do, you fool! The Seattle route can't be that bad, can it???

---

Ugh. So I went to my travel agent a few hours ago, and I've got some bad news, guys.























You bitches are stuck with me for a whole week in October, because my flight is paid for, and I'm going to New York, baby!!

---

Yup, I did the one-way thing, and my travel agent beat the price by $5, which is company policy. It's only $5, but what do I care? That's, like, a hot dog and a pop in the city!

My only worry is only now do I realize that I wasn't asked to pick my seats on the plane, and my itinerary doesn't list it either. Does that mean I'll be assigned a seat when I arrive? And what if the flight is overbooked? Will I be the first to be bumped?

---

But if the flight is over-sold, and I arrive later than the over-sold people, the very last seat is mine, before they start to sell to the other folks, right?

---

Oh, I don't think I have to worry about getting to the airport on time. Thanks to the crappy QuickCoach schedule, I've got a full 3.5 hours between arrival at SeaTac and check-in time. The question will be how many times I can play cat's cradle alone with a hairtie before I shoot myself in the head.

I've never had it before where I wasn't asked to choose my seats in advanced...what if I get stuck between two obesos in the middle seat? (Well, Ellie's not coming in from that far west, so at least I'm safe from ONE!)

*is a smart, experienced traveller who's not used to slumming it on a bus, old-school style*

I can't believe I'm shuttling to Seattle.

*cries*

Hostel-ing it would be the last straw. I think I would lose my mind.

*watches dreams of Park Plaza party and stilettos fade away*

---

Hooray!!!! I was more than a little freaked when I saw the post on the U2 thread. I think I would have had to find myself a cheap flight to Seattle and taken that damn Coach up to Vancouver to slap you silly myself!

Gotta go to class, but I had to chime in that I'm so excited that it's all happening!!! YAY!!!

---

YAY!

---

So, ladies, we need to keep the dates of Friday, Oct 7, Saturday, Oct 8 and most importantly, Sunday, Oct 9 free! (Oh, and for Nik and Sivon, the night of Monday, Oct 10 free, too, for the concert!)

Oh, and try to keep Friday, Oct 14 late-night and/or Saturday, Oct 15 morning/early afternoon open too, since that'll be my last night and day, respectively, in the city!



PS. Oh crap! '21 Club' isn't open on Sundays!!!

PPS. Dammit, Tao is only open for dinner on Sundays!



Well, the point is, gals, can I make lunch and dinner reservations for 10/9 in the next few days? How many people will be around? Me, Siv, Nik, Nic and Ellie? Is Lael coming? Beka, can you afford it? We'll be out late on Sunday night.

Maybe I'll make reservations for 4 people for now...it seems if you want more than 4, you need to provide a credit card number to secure it.

Eww, step that way. The stench...



How excited are you??!

---

i wrote the dates on my calendar... i'll work on it. no way i'm telling my parents about you guys... they get weirded out by ONE person i told them about whos my age that i met online, and you're all 3+ years older.

the money most likely won't be a problem, unless i blow all my $$ in the next month. the big problem is getting there. friday the 7th i have a field hockey game and saturday the 15th is PSATs. other than that, i just have to escape the parentals.

can someone IM me to bounce ideas off of? i have a couple, the best at this point is making up a BS photo assignment, and being out at night probably isn't doable.




edited cause i can't seem to type.

10/10 isn't a holiday for me (we get 10/13 for Yom Kippur instead). I've got class from 9-11 Monday. We'll see what's up, maybe I can blow it off. It's kind of a "we'll tell you what's going on on a class to class basis," so I don't think I'll know the deal on that until it gets closer. If push comes to shove, I can either bug out early in the am, or if you're already at a max of people I can just head back Sunday night. How long is Ellie staying in the city? Saturday at her swank hotel only, or is she there Sat and Sunday...or joining the Radio City Apts conclave on Sunday? Being a studio, do the rooms at Radio City Apts have fridges? Could be a plus, I'd imagine.

Tiff, have you made any more progress on numbers of people/places for restaurant reservations? Last month's credit card bill was pretty pricey, and I'd imagine this one will be too, w/ all my books, etc. So, I think if you're generally looking in the $30-40 range, I'll just pick one to pencil myself in on.

---

$40 for the day should be fine. Were you still planning on doing your super ritzy dinner too? Or are we just going to quasi-schleppy route all the way around w/ restaurants and the Radio City Apts...I'm all for the cheaper the better.
