Wendy, I just PayPal'd you another $38 for my friend to come with me. Thanks. What is the total up to for attendees? Carolyn

Comicwoman May 17, 2002 11:35 pm

There are 59 confirmed attendees. I am already updating two files with each payment, so I do not plan on a thread with who paid so far. If you want to know who is confirmed, I believe that information is available on the Do web site.

Recently I sent an email to everyone that had an email address listed on the Do web site if they said they were coming and had not paid. I really did not want to spend the time looking up the 10-20 email addresses of those that said they were/might come and had not paid. That wave of email resulted in a number of payments. But I refuse to spend time babysitting everyone. I have already spent countless hours on this event. Any additional hours will be spent making the event better, not nagging or begging someone to attend.

If this post does not come off as my usual fun self, I am sorry. But between the two dinners (about 90 dinners), checks coming in the mail, PayPal email, requests for my snail mail address to mail checks, my plate is pretty full.

If you plan on coming, pay asap. If you think you can show up the day of the event and get in without letting us know, you are wrong. We have to confirm headcounts to the restaurant well before the event.

Comicwoman...

I certainly can relate to what you are going through and I think you're doing a great job! Sorry I won't be there to join you all.

BTW, getting your email address just now, I noticed a very similar quote that is also in my profile!

Hang in there, baby! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Thanks for creating the list.

Please put me down as confirmed.

Comicwoman May 18, 2002 8:21 am

OK, maybe last night, (early this morning) I was a little cranky. Now that I have had my caffeine, I am less cranky. Below is the list of people that have paid, told me that they will pay me the night of the event (primarily those that can't/won't use PayPal and are not in the US), informed me that a "check is in the mail", or emailed me with their confirmation/payment details.

Double post

belle3388 May 18, 2002 1:33 pm

This is only a suggestion.

To thank Comicwoman aka Wendy, AnnaS and ElmhurstNick for taking their precious time and effort in organising this 'BIG' event, how about we each chip in, say $2 extra to buy the Chicago-Do host/esses dinners?

That is the least we could do, IMHO.


( oops, my thousand apologies, Nick http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/redface.gif )

I can't speak for AnnaS or Elmhurstnick, but there is no need to buy me dinner.

OTOH, I do enjoy a good whine. (Mine that is)

peteropny May 18, 2002 9:00 pm

I second belle's proposal

Plato90s May 18, 2002 10:14 pm

Does the restaurant have a "cork fee" should we wish to contribute some libations for the party?

Comicwoman May 19, 2002 7:24 am

Plato great question. I will call the catering manager tomorrow to inquire.

paradocs May 19, 2002 10:52 am

Belle, I would be happy to contribute. So thoughtful of you to have the idea!

DEK May 19, 2002 5:19 pm

Belle, I also would be very happy to contribute!

Dale.
