Thanks to some craftiness from my mother? I am going to be definitely attending Readercon this year. Whee!

The question was affordable transportation. I had a thought about trying Skybus and just sucking up the extra day I'd have to take on either side, or taking the train and sucking up the 24+ hour trip each way, but my mother both inquired about flights from Buffalo.

Flights from Buffalo are cheap.

A bit of monkeying with that and getting a train ticket home from Buffalo and my mom offering to drive me to the Buffalo airport to get there in good time for the flight out, and I am going to Readercon. For a very small and affordable amount of money.

Summary: My mom is awesome. And I'm going to Readercon. :)

Who else'll be there?

Me! Readercon is on my every-year list, seeing as how it's in town for me, or close enough.

I'm going, especially since Boskone is out for me this year (gosh darn kid got born in mid- february 9 years ago and HAS to have her birthday right around Readercon!!!).

You should convince that delightful Canadian giant squid to come down with you if he isn't already. I, and no doubt others, owe that dude some beer. I'd even buy you one! OF course, the loonie is doing stellar against our dollar so... Can I have five bucks to buy you that beer? :)

Hee. Inconsiderate children. *g*

I mentioned it to Peter a while back when I was still hoping to get a car crowd together and he was meh, but you should poke him and see what happens.

As I am non-drivey, getting to Buffalo is tricky. Although, now that I know you can grab a train from Union and be five minutes from that airport at the end of the train trip? I will consider it more often.
