The Sheraton down the street. Still not exactly cheap, but significantly less than the non group rate they were asking at King Edward.

I called the hotel and added Thursday night and friday night. The SOA rate wasn't available but my company rate was (and was cheaper too). Of course, my company rate wasn't available for Sunday - Thursday.

Short answer - call the hotel and ask about your company rate.

Just regular processing. That was the surprising thing. I didn't think I needed the expedited processing because is was 8 or 9 weeks out from the FAC. It did come priority mail, which was standard procedure.

That makes me start to wonder about the youngest age.


and I just finished my slides in ppt and the pre-reading, finally! It feels much nicer now.

I can't wait to be in Canada and going to thousand islands (have been to Niagara Falls way too many times) the weekend before FAC, and of course, the celebration *after* giving the presentation.

It feels like a vacation for some reason.

see you all in less than 1 week!
