Lounge Lizards, who's going to the September 24 rally?

[undeterred]

I am. :hi:

[terrya]

1. I can't make it. Money problems.

As in...there is no fucking money. Bills, bills and more bills.

I wish I could.

[progmom]

oh no!

:cry:

i'm sorry, terry. :hug:

[terrya]

31. I'm sorry, progmom

Sweetie, you have no idea how sorry I am. I feel like I'm...deserting or something. :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

36. I was so looking forward to meeting you Terry.

:( Maybe next time. :hug:

[seemunkee]

2. I'll be there with my wife and daughter

[mopinko]

3. hauling buttons

trying to get the hubby to go along, and spend a few days together out that way. driving the new art car.

[Initech]

4. The hotel I wanted to stay at sold out.

:grr:

[LynneSin]

5. Hotels all over are selling out

:cry:

I know the Cap Hill is booked. I keep getting PMs with folks asking for info on where to stay and I'm just at a loss. Suburbs are the best bet for now.

See you there

:hi:

[LynneSin]

6. There will be plenty of DU activities that weekend...

...including a Friday Night fundraiser for the American Red Cross (at the Hawk & Dove in DC).

I really hope to see you all there :D

[Initech]

8. I wanted to stay at the Braxton because:

1. It was the cheapest.

2. It was near a subway stop.

3. It's the closest that I can get to staying at the White House without paying $2000 a night.

4. The hard part was getting a flight and I found one on Continental from LAX - DCA (with a layover at, ugh, George Bush Airport) but it jumped about $100 in the next day.

[sniffa]

15. we're staying in aLexandria on the metro Line

don't know if that's an optino for you. :hi:

[seemunkee]

17. There are couple of hotels in Silver Spring near the Metro

[Initech]

18. How much is it per night?

[Initech]

12. The problem with staying in the suburbs is:

1. I have to rent a car.

2. The main reason I would be able to make this trip is if I dont have to rent a car (I mean, I'm a broke college student!).

[undeterred]

7. I would bet everything is sold out by now.

Theres a bus going from my state (WI) so a lot of us will just be there for Saturday and sleep on the bus a couple of nights. Just bought myself a sleeping bag and a backpack for the trip!

There's a bus which stays for a longer weekend, but nowhere to sleep on the nights you're not travelling.

[progmom]

9. I will be there.

I hope this protest can be about the Gulf Coast tragedy as well.

[Mutley]

10. I'm going.

My Dad might be coming with me.

[JimmyJazz]

11. ME!

:hi:

[usedtobesick]

13. I am and my SO a well

We have rooms and flights but... are both going to be doing work in the relief effort, she in Houston TX and I think me in MS helping rebuild so that may cause some issues depending on what we are doing and where we are at the time. Don't think they'll be out of the woods yet but...we're planning on it.
