Shit, man. I wish someone'd told me that before. I don't know if I wanna go anymore if this means Rachel's not going to put out.

Damn. I see how it is, Shane. Cold.
Johnny C:
Yeah, I expect to have intercourse in Toronto about as much as I expect Christ to descend from on high and anoint me Pope Supreme.
If someone would share a hotel room in chastity with me, I'd appreciate a PM. I'm probably actually going for around a week, from the 18th to the 23rd. (Just to be clear - is the 23rd the day we all leave or the last day we spend in Toronto?) If not, I'll go in on a hostel with folks.

Leaving depends on who you're talking to. Shane, Rachel and I will be leaving the night of Thursday the nineteenth/morning of Friday the twentieth and are planning to arrive sometime around elevenish AM on Friday. We'll be staying at the hostel Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights and leaving sometime on Monday the twenty-third, but not too late as Rachel and I both will have work on Tuesday. I believe Katie, Mai and Matt are planning to stay another day or two beyond that, but arriving around the same time as us.
If you're interested in the hostel, let me know. We'll probably end up with another full room, at the least.
Also, folks, it's looking like time to potentially get more organized. Looks like whoever I talked to at the hostel wasn't getting my wording, six is NOT the limit. The room we've booked, according to Rachel's correspondence with them, is two full beds and four twins. Rachel and I have obviously claimed one full bed to share and all the other beds are taken. We might also be squeezing Katie's friend Kyle in there with us (Rachel E-Mailed them back to ask about it) if we can add him on to the deposit.
Aside from that, here's a tentative list of folks I've spoken with who might need lodging:
To my knowledge, the following are probably going and need lodging, but I have not spoken with them personally:
MBeran Matt, Liz (Missconceptions, whose status I'm unsure of since her carpool appears to have dried up) and Oli. If you guys could get in touch one way or the other so I can determine who's in need, that'd be cool.
Bryan (Storm Rider) has expressed interest in going, but would need a passport and has a few other obstacles. The situation is ongiong.
From there, we've got a group of probables who've professed interest in the hostel:
Steven (Ackblom and his fiance probably), Phil (Boro_Bandito), Jordan (Ozymandias) and Malorie (cupcakeonastick).
Beyond that are complete unknowns to me. Tommy mentioned that Ruyi, Pete and Drick might be coming, but I've not spoken with any of them and am unaware of their potential lodging.
That puts us at, by my count, an additional 9 people possible for the hostel. I've also brought up the idea with my younger brother and he said he'd be very interested in getting involved (He's twenty-one and cool shit, only a bit more of a twat than I am). I'd lay heavy odds that we're clear to get people involved for a second room with potential for setting up a third at some point.
Note: After having spoken with someone at the hostel, they've told me they have seventeen total rooms and are a relatively small place overall. We've booked one as it is and I'm not sure how long the place'll stay free. Looking online, it's very highly rated and apparently quite popular, so if you'd like to get in on it, I'd recommend acting ASAP. As before, I'd appreciate people who are 100% going and are interested in the hostel PMing me to let me know so we can get an official headcount for a second room. From there those involved can pick someone to rely on to book the room (The deposit for seven people for three nights came to $64). We're at the getting serious point now and I'd ask that only people seriously interested folks ask to reserve a spot for them, as someone will have to put money down to book it and I don't want to see someone get fucked over. Pretty soon, I'd like to hand this off to the folks who need lodging themselves, though.
Something Witty:
As far as I know, Katie and Mai are rolling out of Atlanta on the 18th, when they get to my doorstep 10-11 hours later, I'll jump in the driver's seat and shoot for Chicago, where depending on what times it is and how we all feel we might catch a hotel. If I've driven all night, one of the other people in the car might want to take over and drive on to the border, but either way we should hit toronto sometime ont he 19th, probly the afternoon. It is, afterall, a 19-20 hour drive from Oklahoma City to Toronto.
Lines:
The way I'm looking for buses is to leave on the 19th in the PM and arrive on the 20th sometime in the AM. The one I'm aiming for leaves around 10-11 and arrives around 9-10 in the morning and I'll have to sort out how to get from the bus station to downtown later.
If someone wants company on their drive however (if I had a car that could make the trip, I'd drive, but alas I don't) and are relatively close to where I live, like the northeastern midwest area, PM me. I can take a bus/fly out to you instead. Long trips alone are boring.
