I tried reserving a room at the Concourse Hotel last night through the online service, but I got a message saying there were no rooms left for Memorial Day weekend. Normally I reserve my room in January without any problems, so I was surprised that they were gone by Feburary. Maybe I should try calling the hotel just to make sure.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to go anyway. By that point, I'll be in my last trimester, probably starting my last month. Who knows how comfortable I'll be or how much moving around I can do? Besides, there's always the chance complications could develop, which would mean I'd have to stay home anyway. But I thought that if I had the room, I could always cancel it if necessary.

I could try one of the overflow hotels, but again, given how huge I'll probably be, it would be even harder on me to go from hotel to hotel instead of keeping to one place as much as possible.

It would make more sense just to stay home this year, but I really love going to WisCon. It's my favorite con, and of course it's in my favorite city. How can I pass up seeing Madison over Memorial Day? Sure, sometimes the weather's lousy, and I'll probaby be able to go in the fall when our college friends have the annual Thanksgiving dinner. But it's not the same.

Well, I probably shouldn't whine about it too much. I'm sure I can get a refund from the con for registration and dessert tickets. But part of me is still hoping I can somehow make it work anyway.
