Hotel Room Land Grab 2011

Waiting up to secure a hotel room for Dragon*Con 2011. Feels a bit like that scene in Far & Away where they race to secure a homestead out west.

I really need to start charging a finder's fee for this service. Seriously. I spend weeks gathering information and stay up to secure a rare host hotel room and my Dragon*Con roommates get to go about their normal lives and sleep? Not cool. Not cool at all.

Back in a few hours to report whether or not I was successful.

This is the dress I will wear as a bridesmaid in Skip and Jaime's wedding in November. For those of you who aren't from Australia, New Zealand or Florida, don't worry. I won't freeze to death. Our fall is a warm spring day for you.

But I still need shoes.

I'm leaning towards purple. Is that weird? Purple slouchy high heel boots. Should I chose a shoe in a similar colour to what is in the dress?

Definitely some sort of high heel, boot, or high heel boot.

Any tips from you fashionable and/or opinionated folks out there will be greatly appreciated.
