The apartment in question is a “spare” one the complex keeps for just such…uh, things. Anyway, the apartment is a 2br/2bt (+couch) and is $85/night. My place is 2br/2bt but I only had one bed and a couch, so my place isn’t what we are talking about. Also, the cats are staying in Looooouieville, so no sneezing.
quixotic78 / Yes, and often / I’unno… probably some booze, and I can play Johnny-on-the-Spot as far as running to Giant Eagle or Kroger (until I get too drunk, cough) for whatever we need / I can’t decide, so I’ll probably just show up nude / Chez Quixy–but you can’t come! (ok, YOU can) / Yeah, but I’ll let sapphy reply on her own.
Thinksnow: Is there a limit on how many people you want sleeping in that spare apartment? Because the only way I’m going to be able to afford to come to the party is if the hubby and I also find a place to crash at the apartment, unless we can find a couple of people willing to split the cost of a hotel room. From the looks of it, we are going to have people sleeping in the hallways and bathrooms because all of the couches and beds are already taken.
As for a costume, my hubby has his wizard costume already set, but I still need to get my costume together. I just can’t make up my mind what I want to come as. The only decent costumes I can find are the kind made for women much skinnier than I.
These are the people I have down for the apartment as of right now:[li]Juniper[]Persephone[]ShibbOleth (?)[]Sophie[]Strainger[]DynoSaur (if he shows)[/li]
And these are people looking for floor space:[li]tiggeril[]Medea’s ChildSuperDude (I’m assuming, since you never said)[/li]
Now, like I said, I’ve got a couch, but that’s good for maybe 2 people. I would, of course, share my bed, but there are certain, shall we say, requirements, perhaps conditions, for that. Either way, it looks like the apartment is full up, but if you think about it, a hotel between 2 couples or 3-4 people is only gonna be $20/person or so.
I was planning on bringing blankets & a pillow for the floor (no physical problems that would require bed space or anything). Eithe that, or I was going to swipe my daughter’ Blue’s Clues sleeping bag.
I REALLY cannot afford a hotel room. So the more in the apartment, the better. I mean, if it’s $85,and we can get eight people in there, hey, that’s ten bucks & some change apiece. That I can do. And I don’t mind sharing the floor with Shadowfox and the mister. I’ve met them. They’re cool, and they don’t have cooties.
I already figured that if I was going to be sleeping in the apartment, that I was going to end up sleeping on the floor. I have no problem with that. I already have a sleeping bag and my own pillow. I just don’t want thinksnow getting in trouble with the apartment management because there are a dozen strangers sprawled all over the place.
Well, I’m up for giving Juniper a “facial” [sub]<snicker>[/sub] and I think she is on the right track, there, when she mentions that this is going to go late-night. We’ve got the club-house until midnight (and it has to be cleaned, too), after that, the original plan had been dancing, but from the looks of it, that isn’t very high on the list for quite a few of the folks. There are, of course, many bars we can go to, but, well, there are bars everywhere, so I’ll bite the bullet and offer up my place for after-hours. I’ve got cards and dice and Jenga (modified for adults…heh) and stuff, I’ve got a DVD player and a big’ol TV and a stereo so we can have a good, if somewhat crowded, time without hitting the bars (though we can do that, too, don’t get me wrong.)

Are you bringing the handcuffs on the plane? I don’t know if I should try that or just buy some at the Wal-mart.
Do you think they’d take my toy plastic handcuffs?
Miss Creant, I don’t know. I’m bringing some toy weapons as part of my outfit (I hope I’m bringing them. Stupid exboyfriend who owns them hasn’t sent them yet.) and I’m going to put them in the suitcase I’d usually use as a carry on and check it. I’d bet good money that even toy handcuffs would be taken away at security. I say check 'em or hope to find some at Wal-Mart.
As for thinksnow…I’ll deal with you–and the big-giant tub (oh goodness)–later…
Hey, I do what I can. And if ya wanna use ‘em on ME, that’s okay, too. Dammit! This’ll be my third Dopefest. I feel the need to sleep with a female Doper. Stupid ex-boyfriend? Juniper, how you doin’? Let me know if you feel like a rebound, and thinksnow’s…um…tied up.
