autographedcatI've seen some folks posting that they got home okay, but since I'm still at the convention hotel and haven't had a chance to thoroughly look through LJ yet, I figured I'd just post a general request here for people to leave a comment and let me know they got home okay.
More on the con later. I hope everyone had a wonderful time, despite the weather!

Date: 2011-01-11 01:21 am (UTC)Thanks for a great convention, and I look forward to seeing all of you (or, "y'all," I suppose) again.
Oh, and http://bootiemashup.com/sf/deangray/ is that link to American Edit I promised you.

Date: 2011-01-11 03:38 am (UTC)I can, however, report that I made it to Orlando on time last night. So I am in fact where I'm supposed to be at the moment, which is at $EMPLOYER's annual trade show.

Date: 2011-01-11 04:23 pm (UTC)Thankfully someone canceled and I got on the flight. On the one hand, being stuck in GA wouldn't have been bad with all y'all there, but getting home the day before I had to fly to MA wouldn't have been great.

Thanks for your concern, and thanks for everything you do to make GaFilk such a wonderful con.

Date: 2011-01-12 03:07 am (UTC)My Air Canada/Jazz flight was originally scheduled to leave at 11:20 am on Tuesday because I stay over an extra day to meet a voice over friend of mine - but unfortunately, due to the weather, he was unable to make it. Instead, I spent a lovely day with the folks at GaFilk that were still there, so it was still a very pleasant day. I left early this morning (was up and waiting for the shuttle around 8am) to make sure I managed to get through security in plenty of time. The airport was pretty empty. The flight left at noon instead of 11:20, but was off the ground when they said we would be (they kept us regularly updated, which I greatly appreciated).
In fact, the plane had arrived directly from Toronto, dropped off some folks, then directly boarded all us befuddled Canadians back into its loving embrace again and brought us home. ;)
So all in all, I managed to escape fairly unscathed. And I now have somewhat more reason for preferring Air Canada over other airlines (not to mention that they don't charge extra for 1 item of checked luggage).
Glad to hear that others are making it home now too!
