Bucketsful of meh

I kinda suck at organizing myself, which is weird because I'm SUPAH-organized at work. So I was waiting for the discounted rooms for Asylum 8 to go up, and then I forgot to check the website for a couple of weeks, and I've gone and missed the window and all the discount rooms are gone, goddamnit. And, in fact, so are all the standard rooms. According to the little guy somewhere in China on the Hilton's utterly vile worldwide-booking-"help"line, I could have an executive room for only £220 per night. Um, how about FUCK, NO. Furthermore, shot_goth may have to work that weekend, so I might be paying for the room on my tod.

Buggeration and fuckery.

*sulks and berates self for an hour or two*
*books into the Travelodge down the road instead*

Ah, well. It could be worse. One of the reprobates I met at Con-1 is staying at the Travelodge too, so I won't be on my lonesome up there even if shot_goth can't make it. It's a 5 min taxi-ride away, which is perfectly doable, if not quite as peachy as staying in the con hotel. And it's so ridiculously cheap compared to the Hilton (half the price of the discounted rooms, FFS) that I can afford to book an extra night so I don't have to pack up and put my suitcase into storage while the con is still happening. Uh, yay?

Asylum 9 is booking and has Gabriel and Balthazar. Oh, the temptation!!

real life, conventions
