Hmmmm. actually sent this message on the 5th.
Yes, we got it. We are in negotiations with another person at the moment. However, if that falls through, You will most likely be the
first person we contact. We hope you don't mind sharing a room with my wife & I. We're not looking for anything fancy, just a decent place to put our heads down & sleep. I should have a definite answer in the next day or so. The room we are considering is 89$ a night with two
double beds. My wife & I are both in our early 30's and have had a 17 year old girl from Korea staying with us since January. Though unfortunately she won't be able to make it for this trip. Like I said I'll keep you posted. For any more info on me check out my profile.

AND this on the 6th.
So it's looks like you may be our roomie. So tell us a bit more bout yourself.
_________________________________________________
So, anyway, when we hadn't heard back from ya, my wife & I really started questioning whetther we we're gonna be able to afford this trip, either way. The more we really looked at it, we realized we just don't have the cash to do it. The biggest hang-up was the airfare, about 400.00$ bucks a piece.
Sorry, the communication brokedown. But, maybe it's a clue that this is not a wise idea for us right now. I do believe you will find a suitable roomie.
And my apologies for any frustration.

It's not that I'm trying to cause trouble or insult anyone. It's just that now that I realize I'll most likely be going it alone, its kinda scarey for someone that's been as sheltered as I have. And even though I have family there, it would be impolite to ask for lodging and then proceed to ignore them because everyday of the Con I'm rushing out the door to get to some event. You get what I mean ?
So I'm planning on asking for 10 days off work so that after the Con I can hang out with my relatives. Make my Great Aunts happy, they haven't seen me in YEARS. So that's why I want to pay my lodgings for the Con rather than try and mooch off my kickass family (this is a branch I get along with very well but they aren't scifi people otherwise I'd convince a cousin to go with me).
=sighs= Ok, if anything if you'll be at the Renaissance then if it doens't work out. I'll book a room there and then proceed to beg around if anyone wants to room with me. At least then I'd know there were some Browncoats in the Hotel.

I am a little confused. I thought that Sendmeawave was going to be too busy, and handed things off to NDREAMS for this year, or at least the organization of the planning meeting this weekend. It might be better to put Sita in touch with Cary rather than Rich.
Either way it will be good to see more Browncoats there, and I know that all cash donations will be humbly accepted.

There will probably be more hard information to lay down after the SEBC planning meeting on Sat. So, expect a fairly big organizational thread to be forthcomming.

Hi OneDollarWilliam
You're right about SendMeAWave being too busy, and NDreams picking the ball up but if you take a look at Browncoat1's post, it was way before we knew SendMeAWave would be too busy :) There's actually a more current volunteer thread, started by NDreams that you might want to post on instead of this one. 
I aim to misbehave!

Since I received no emails or messages in respsonse from anyone. I had to scrap my Dragon*Con plans. May anyone who is going have an excellent time. =sighs=
So far this is the third trip this year I have planned to make and that I have had to dissolve due to lack of interest from anyone. Oh well, no vacation for this cashier for 2005. Oh Man I need some Haagen Dazs.
