Okay, Angelica and I might be able to go. I made a reservation at the Clarion hotel, just in case. Unfortunately, the Westin was sold out for the con rate, and I'd really much rather spend $89/night at the Clarion than $189/night at the Westin (non-con non-group rate). There are a few things preventing me from completely confirming our attendance:

1. I need to confirm with my new boss that I'd be able to take that Friday and possibly Saturday off (if I work Saturdays, which I suspect I will). We'd most likely be flying in on Thursday evening, too late to really do much but maybe hang out with friends (not that that isn't exactly what I'm wanting to go to Ycon for).
   
   
2. We need roommates. More specifically, roommates who (a) will not mind if we have to back out, (b) will not mind taking over the room reservation if we have to back out, or (c) already have a room (or floor space) and will not mind if we have to back out. *Note: Notice of backing-out status would be given by mid-September (see reason #1).
   
   
3. We have not purchased plane tickets or pre-reg'd yet (see reasons #1 and #2).

If anyone meets any of the requirements for #2, please let me know. (Or if you know anyone else who might be interested, please have them contact me.) Obviously, the majority of it will be riding on what my boss says. And yet, do you think he'd begrudge me 1-2 days off, with advance notice of 2 months?
