Oh, how I hope that holds. That'll feel positively wonderful coming from Phoenix.
I found out two days ago that I've got a few days off during AV week, so I paid for a UWOSH dorm room this morning. I plan to jumpseat up through MSP to ATW on Wed, and I'll be at the convention on Thu and Fri. Sadly, that's all the time I can spare this year; I have to leave on Sat.
I've been trying to make it for several years, but work always got in the way. This is my first visit, so I'm pretty stoked! Woo Hoo!!
