Danlo, I checked where I'm staying to see if I could change my reservation to a double room that we could split, but they have no other openings for that weekend. Sorry!

You could always check into getting him a cot. :wink: But his feet would probably hang off the end since he is so tall. :(

*pout* What are we gonna do with you for Spamalot, danlo? Do you want me to see if I can dig up another ticket for Saturday afternoon?

On another note, I also have three tickets for that Saturday night that I haven't been able to get rid of. They're $92 a piece, if anyone's got some friends who are interested in seeing the show but missed getting tickets.

I can pass on Spam, don't worry-I'll just force myself to watch the collected episodes of Fawlty Towers 4 times in a row when I get home :P (I have a limited budget, obviously--I'll take in a movie or corrupt a fellow watcher in the meantime :twisted: :biggrin: )

OK, here's the deal. I'm starting yet another round of meds. I won't be able to drink for two weeks after I start them, which'll prolly be Saturday. If that's the case, I'll be unusually sedate on the 23rd, as I'll be coming off a massive dose of steroids. If history repeats itself, I don't know if I'll even be able to gather the energy to make it out that night.

I have every intention of making it, but I've got a massive infection, and my hands are like two big (insert something big her) of ground beef. I can neither make a fist nor open them all the way right now. Hopefully, I'll be in some sort of state to attend, but I'm attempting to take the long view now. I'm really hurting.

Wow, Cail, I hope you get better soon. That sounds terribly painful. :(

I realized this morning that you never got a ticket for Spamalot either. Like I said, I have three tickets for Saturday night, so maybe you and danlo and somebody else could get together and go see the show then, and meet up with us after... I dunno. Just trying to put some options on the table - especially if you think you might not make Friday. I forget if you said you were busy Saturday night...
