Hmm...Friday's gonna be doubtful for me.  Saturday I'll be there all day and will be helping out with FenCon's room party, so I'm a shoe-in then.

there's a Whole Foods at Beltline and Coit, just a short hop from the hotel. Is where the teens in our homeschool group like to hang out for some reason I do not fathom.

*perks up*  Are you going to make good on your promise of Morganti Brownies?  Especially now that I know what "Morganti" means? :D

The list of Whole Foods locations in Texas is here.  The hotel seems to be situated midway between the Preston and Forest location (11700 Preston Rd Ste 714) and the Richardson store (60 Dal Rich Vlg).

I'd go to the Richardson store - it's a bit closer, plus Belt Line is nice if you want to hit up some of the bars / restaurants in the area. Most of Belt line is bars / restaurants / good places to hang out, especially the Addison portion of Belt Line. The other location is going away from where most of the nightlife is, assuming that you ever want to leave the hotel  :P

Okay. Got the basics down.  See you guys then. Is there a copy of the costume contest rules available before registration?

Most likely - check the website.  Folks gotta make costumes in advance, so they're unlikely not to be posted.

Yup.  The rules and entry form are linked on the Programming page.  I'm now trying to decide between Maeve and Delirium, myself.

All I really have to say at this point is that if someone wishes to meet me on Saturday (the day I will be going. Probably not Friday or Sunday) then you only have to hunt me down. There are pics of me here (couple of pages back) and I will probably be wearing a Boba Fett shirt. Since I've only been to anime conventions, I'm hesitant to wear a costume to a non-anime convention. I know...it's not any big deal, it's just a bit of paranoia on my part. Um...if it's cold enough, I'll probably be wearing a gray hoodie.

And if you happen to see me and want to meet me (though I can't possibly understand why... ;D) my real name is Micah (pronounced my-cuh) or you can call me Sameth. I may not answer to that, though. After all...it's just a screen name.

I am looking forward to meeting forum members just as much as meeting Jim and going to the different panels. I will be partially disappointed if I don't run into at least SOMEONE!

(Side note: if you happen to run into me and I have a confused look on my face, just say you're from the forum and your screen name. I'm horrible with names and I'll assume I met you somewhere else and feel like a bastard for not remembering you.)

Like Spectacular Sameth I'm really interested in meeting those that post frequently.  I'm free for dinner on Fri and Sat.
Really excited, hopefully I can sleep well as I plan to start driving by daybreak.

Woo, I'm in Dallas!  I actually got on an earlier flight, saving myself an hour and a half's wait in the airport.  Bring on the Texan-style shenanigans!

Does anyone have an idea of what is going on for Sunday? I am off that day and will be there from the late morning to the early evening. I hope things don't break up early. Are there going to be boards and book signings on Sunday? I work 2nd shift on Fri and Sat so I could only go there for a couple of hours at most each of those days.
