I still haven't booked a room for the conference. Stephanie suggested checking thr list to see who else might be going, but all the other girls going are aready booked in together. bah. There is a mariott hotel at 139$/night, or a courtyard inn for 99$'night. for three nights - that's a lot of money for a girl on her own. I called the hostel in town, but they don't actually take resevations. they told me I should call a week in advance to gauge how busy they were. they also have guest hoses (? I think) for 40$ a night, which is certainlyt better than 99 :p But they aren't even sure they will be open.

I wnder if I should make a reservation at the Courtyard, and then cancel if necesary? I mean, if I call the hostel place a week in advance and they *are* open, well, I can try to stay there, either in the dorms or in a guesthouse, and cancelled at the courtyard then. Meh. Meh meh meh. My other option is to show up unexpectedly on [livejournal.com profile] fionasidhe's doorstep looking really sad, and hope she will let me stay on her couch. I am hoping to see her while I am there, at least.

How big a conference is this? I mean, are the hotels likely to be full if you leave it until a week before-hand to book your room?

Well, then, I would say that it can't hurt to make a booking and then cancel it if something better comes up. And then hope really hard that something better *does* come up ;)

Hunny I would love to have you on my doorstep anytime but I'm 2 hours away from Savannah in Augusta :)
We were married in Savannah, we live in Augusta, where the Masters are held.
