Dashed to the Ground

DF and I were talking today, and he managed to convince me to agree to going to Vegas for the TW World Wide Get Together, as a birthday present to me, since he knows I really want to go.

Great in theory, but then we looked at airline tickets, or more correctly, the lack thereof.

He has no real time off right now, between the move, and two more days last week for Comic Con. So, we'd have to leave Friday evening, and come home Sunday evening. But the only tickets available get us there at 12:03 Saturday morning, and leaving 6:30 Sunday morning. So for 30 hours in Vegas, we'd be paying $700 for air and hotel. Not to mention food, the airport shuttle, and so on. So... unless I come up with some great way to go on my own for about $300, it's just not going to happen.

I was dealing with missing it a lot better before I let my hopes get raised. :\ And yeah, I have no one to blame but myself, for not making plans a lot earlier.
