when the marriott kept pulling stunts

Even more fun with the marriott in san diego! Yesterday I discovered an additional $80 charge from the Marriott Gaslamp in San Diego on my debit card. This was charged on saturday, almost a week after I had checked out. We called today to see what the charge was for. I knew there was no damage to the room, we didn't take any towels or pillows, our one room service charge ...

And, in other news, I have either lost a cap or a really big filling in one of my teeth. It doesn't hurt at all, I noticed after dinner tonight, I realised when I ran my tongue over that last tooth in my mouth it felt... not right. Like the middle of my tooth is missing. I certainly haven't swallowed anything lately. Weird. Gonna call to get a dentist appt ...

a long overdue update

(EDIT: This was a catch-all collection of recent costume photos and events originally posted to my livejournal. Since I ported it over here, it may be a bit redundant.) As I said in the last quick post, sorry for disappearing the past couple of months! Besides the usual weekday work drudge, I've been out of town almost every weekend since March, and add to that trying to finish various costumes ...

when we flew over the grand canyon

So, San Diego report! Wednesday! We got up at 4AM, went over to Ash's house and picked her up. We got to the airport a little before 5 and got checked in. Nothing was open so we just had to sit around. We ended up in like, the loser part of the airport I'd never been in before. So we're sitting there, and this lady working for Northwest makes an announce ...
