I am skipping March and going in May

Originally Posted By Shiva I'm sorry gottaluv, it doesn't seem completely fair to me either. When I first called I was willing to accept that I wasn't going to be able to stay there but, as Lady Starlight stated, hotels do try to accomodate their regulars and I was squeezed in and then I was offered a great rate on top of that. I was more than willing to stay as far away as Buena Park if I had to. I do love the chicken dinner at the KBF Restaurant.
Originally Posted By Shiva >>I hope Shiva was able to get xppx a room that close too<< No, I wasn't able to but I did ask. I called her last night and told her than they could accomodate from the 2nd on. >>She sounds super NICE<< She is! We've spent out last three DL visits together and we just love her and her DD's to pieces.

I hope you don't hate me for it or think me a hypocrite. It's just that hijacking a thread so hard for so long is technically a violation of community standards and (as I learned the hard way as a newbie) really irritates a lot of other LPers who will never say anything about it. I'm really sorry guys. I'm all for a funny off-topic but well-placed joke and a little free-wheeling in a thread now and again but this is a little much. *grits teeth and hits submit*
