First step towards AX

astillarSo I finally made some plans for AX and I feel better now. I’d been hoping to just glomp onto some other cosplayer and crash/ride with them but I’m not online often enough to know what everyone’s planning. So yeah, rather than wait till the last minute I just bit the bullet. I reserved a room at Hotel Figueroa for Wednesday thru Sunday. I don’t recognize the hotel name, but it’s on the same block as the convention center and it’s got decent reviews so that’s good enough for me. Star seemed like she was open to the idea of roommates so we might be looking for some to help reduce the cost.
I’m taking the whole week off (and then some) for AX. I plan on driving my truck, which has been nagging me non-stop to take it on a long roadtrip. This should shut it up. I’d heard some rumors that some cosplayers were planning on renting a U-Haul and carpooling out there, but I don’t know whatever happened to that idea. So for now, my plan is to leave Austin early Tuesday (July 1st), spending the night in Phoenix, and getting to LA early Wednesday afternoon, just in time to pick up Star at LAX. Going home, I plan on leaving Sunday afternoon and taking my time getting back to Austin and getting in early Tuesday morning. I’d like to have a passenger come along to chip in for gas (and help keep me awake/sane), but I don’t think people will start looking for rides until closer to the con.
AX may still be a long ways off but I’m glad to have made plans for it already. Now I can commit myself to working towards it.
