Don't worry, I won't sneak into your room and watch you wash your hair while you're here. Really I won't. *looks absolutely innocent*

Have you noticed how innocent I always seem to look around you? And yet you're always making faces at me. *sigh*

Really? See, my brother, and most of the boys I knew, never really cared to perfect the innocent face. They would rather just quietly (or loudly) cause mayhem, then become silent and sullen when questioned about it.

Our church choir has a big number scheduled for Memorial Day weekend -- and I didn't know about it until yesterday. I told the director we would probably not be here for it, and he was very alarmed -- see, our small church choir only has about 15 to 20 members total -- and my family (myself and my kids) are FOUR of those members. So he would be losing a substantial part of the choir if we are absent.
So I don't know - I will talk with him and see if we can perform on a different date, or if they feel they can do okay without us.
Plus there is a Sunday School "cookout" that weekend, and last year they used my farm as location, and want to again this year (although they didn't ask me until now, so I can truthfully say I had other plans).
The thing is, my kids would rather stay here and do the cookout than go to Dallas. So I'm getting a lot of pressure to abandon DallasCon.
I know I was offline for three days, and I'm kinda tired at the moment, having just given up on getting to sleep tonight . . . but wasn't there a more recent DallasCon thread? It seems not to exist any longer.

Yes there was! Let me see if I can find it. It was the one where Coccinelle offered to help...

What I don't know is why, and/or if more discussion occurred in it after I last saw it and before it was deleted.

Hmm...KQ was going to make another thread, but I don't know exactly what's going on. She is still handling everything for DallasCon. I suggest contacting her directly.

She is currently waiting for updated quotes from a couple of hotels. She is rather irritated, as she left the messages on Friday.

The hotel is awaiting your reservations! This is going to be great, guys. Not too many of us are coming, so those who are, shall we decide what we're doing? What's important to do or see in Dallas? I figure we're going out to dinner Sat. night (should I reserve the private dining room?) Night life, Texas music, improv games, historical sights, what are you up for?

That's cool, too, but if we want to do anything we need reservations for, we should decide that at least a couple of weeks in advance.

Or, like, if we wanted to do a book or accessory exchange, we should decide that in time for everyone to decide what they want to bring.

You Me + family FG + kids Boon Coccinelle kat, for at least some of the stuff, but she doesn't know how much, because of a work thing Fishtail + hubby Risuena (maybe, maybe not, going to try) rav (possible, not sure) Jim-me + kaboodle of kids Tink said yes-- maybe but haven't seen her around in a bit
I think that's everyone who's expressed interest and then not said they can't make it.

Ok, so that doesn't sound like there are any likely roomies anyway. So, unless someone (female) yelps real quick that they are interested in sharing a room with Boon 'n me, I'll just book the room.

Blackcatwings (Ivygirl's best friend) may be coming with us as well. (She posted on here back in December some).
If she does, that will make me have to re-think my whole room setup. Because if it is just my family, we will all share one room. But if I have an additional 17 year old girl, then probably her sharing a room with us, including my 17 year old boy, would be something her parents would frown on, no matter whether I'm there or not.

So, is everyone who's coming planning on going to dinner together Sat. night? I think that will be our one big "all together" activity, and it will be really fun. But I need to know how many are going to make it to figure things out with the restaurant. (Madras Pavilion, kosher Indian vegetarian food.)
