Pre-reg, check. Plane ticket, check. Layover in New Orleans, check.
Playoncon is officially a GO. I have the receipt for my pre-reg lying around somewhere, not that it'll be necessary, though it'd be helpful in case the reg desk gives me a hard time about it AGAIN. Got a killer deal on a plane ticket for POC, flying direct to Birmingham arriving Thursday morning. Shame that the hotel doesn't start checking in till 3pm... gonna have to kill the time at Tilted Kilt next door. And once POC is put to bed, I'll be riding down to New Orleans for a couple days, flying home from there. So far everything is lining up perfectly.
