Ain't got no extra blankets, but I have a pillow I can lend.

Hey, could we create an offical list of times and addresses for all the events? I still don't know where Hanstock lives, or where the band is playing.

[Hanstock]

Ryan if you are uncomfortable with me putting our address in here, PM or text me and I will edit it out.

Thursday:
Early arrivals...arrive

Friday:
From about 4PM we can convene at our house: 98 N. 10th St., Apt. 1 San Jose, CA 95112
At about 5 or 6 PM ish (possibly 7) we will head out and get some dinner (we are thinking Pho, because Pho is awesome). This will be walking distance from the house.
Loadin for the show is at 8PM and first band starts at 9PM. This means that we will head down there with our gear and then probably head back and lead everyone else down there. The venue is also walking distance from our house, it's about ten blocks. Anyone who doesn't feel like walking that far can conceivably be driven. Johnny V's: 31 E. Santa Clara St. San Jose, CA 95101
House party: Midnight to question marks

Saturday:
The WrestleFanFest group will get up fairly early and drive up to the event. The SF group will sleep in and I dunno Ryan will make you guys chocolate dipped strawberries for breakfast or something.
Ryan can supply the itinerary for the SF group. The WFF group will hang out at the event as long as we can handle it and then after we have all received our Vic Grimes autographs or whatever it would probably be best to all reconvene at the hotel to drop off personal belongings and then take MUNI (public transportation) to whatever awesome bar or bars at which we will be celebrating Ryan's birthday and getting sloppy.

Sunday:
Depending on whether there are autographs to be had we will partake of the awesome free breakfast and after collecting endlessmike perhaps take in the pool (HALF AN HOUR LATER NO ONE WANTS A STOMACH CRAMP), then leisurely make our way over to the ROH event, which has a bell time of 4PM. The event will be done by 8, after which we will probably drop off the aforementioned internet personality endlessmike and then take in some dinner, perhaps The Cheesecake Factory at the top of the Macy's in Union Square. After that, more drinking!

Monday:
More free awesome breakfast and then a fabulous day in San Francisco, including but not limited to: Haight Street and dirty hobos. Those people leaving on Tuesday will then head back down to San Jose with us to relax and have a mostly-peaceful evening.

Tuesday:
back to that dang ol grind

Sweet. I just changed to direct deposit so Kristen doesn't have to wait for me to get my paycheck, etc.

I've never seen Lombard Street. Could that fit into our itinerary somehow?

Saturday San Francisco Fun Fest!

Satruday morning we will sleep in and then eat a healthy home-cooked breakfast. We can't check in to our hotel until 3pm but I figured we can still drive up there and park in their rad free parking lot and take the BART into the city. We can get off on Market and maybe take the cable car to Ghiradelli Square. From there we can walk to Pier 39. Lombard street is in that same neighborhood and there's lots to see over that way. Eventually we'll make our way to a predetermined eatery/watering hole to reconvene with the wrasslin' fans. Later: Check in to hotel, hotel shenanigans.

San Francisco is our oyster on Saturday, and I'm open to anything anyone wants to do. We'll be on public transportation, which in SF is extensive and accomodating but not necessarily rapid! We can buy one-day passports for $9 and that covers the cable car ride too. Otherwise its $1.50 for a two hour transfer and I think $6 for the cable car (3 each way).

Wait, we arent checking into the hotel on saturday until after we meet up with everyone else for dinner and drinks? Or are they going to be done with the wrestling thing earier than I suspect? I was just probably going to change and clean up before the evenings activities.

[White Panther]

We can check in anytime after 3 PM. I think the wrestling events don't end until later in the evening, and I don't know when the others are gonna join up with us. If folks want to get to the hotel in the afternoon and check in and clean up before dinner/evening activities, that can easily be accomplished.

[Kristen Smith]

ok cool

[mreow]

Sounds good! Thanks for planning everything, guys.

[Hanstock]

No, thank YOU for...

oh.

You're welcome.
