We got confirmation from all three of our hotels, and i had to hand over some money to one of them, so...looks like
jackoweskla and I are going to Japan in December. Yay?
Ha, it's not that I'm not ecstatic, but I do have to go into work tomorrow and beg for them to let me not show up when I am, you know, making it worldwide and such, and I'm scared they'll just be like "no, don't be stupid" and also the flight we need seems to be maybe sort of sold out (or maybe not?) depending on where we look.
I'll be honest, when I was sort of pitching this idea just after the "kisumai gets concerts" announcement, it was all, well if they miraculously hit some date i maybe can do it and if maybe somebody else can go, and it was all this vague pipedream. And then "some shows" became "a tour" and then I figured other people's parents would say no, and everybody said yes and...now I kind of...have to...say yes too.
Damn. I kind of thought everybody else would tell me this was stupid and to be sensible. THIS IS TOO MUCH DRAMA. Now I'm going to go to bed and completely fail to sleep while I think about this uselessly much longer. and also about how much I really, really don't want to ask my principal for things. the irony of the situation is that i will be begging them not to pay me.
Jackoweskla: wtf it gave us two different flights ...i put in the wrong date NEVER MIND
Mousapelli: beth stop scaring me, i'm doing a good enough job on my own
J: i'm stil getting a different date, but it's less ominous now. PRICE I MEAN PRICE. GOD.
M: ahahahahaha at least you're cute. this is like trying to book a vacation with hasshi
J: D:
M: except i think we're both hasshi

Date: 2009-09-22 12:32 am (UTC)In Yokohama i've stayed at the Shin Yokohama Prince hotel, which is really nice and near the station, but consequently expensive. Still, for a few nights it might be worth the money to have your own bath and things.
When I'm in Tokyo I always stay at the Ryokan Kangetsu, which friends introduced me to. It's in Chidori Cho which is out a bit from Tokyo, but it's small and quiet and has a rooftop onsen and wifi and laundry, and I love it there.
We're trying a new place in Kyoto called Ikoi no Ie (http://www.ikoi-no-ie.com/) that looks cool. Last year we stayed at the Hotel Nihonkan, and that was nice too. There's a ton of places really near Kyoto Station, which is where you want to be, because aside from being near the station, there's a huge underground shopping center under it, and the buses to the temples and things leave from the station too.
and that's about the end of my limited expertise.
