Well, you've read the notes, the notes were high, and now it is time for you to post until the sky high cows come home.

I am so disgusted right now I want to vomit on the ground. I'm so tired on incompetence.

bk - When you call PayPal - and check back in with the hotel desk - make sure to see how many "pending charges" they put on your card. As I found out last week, I actually had more than one charge on my card. However, I did not know that until my customer service rep at my bank pointed it out - even though on my online statement all I saw was one pending charge. -It only showed up that way since they both came from the same merchant. -Consequently, I had to make sure that the hotel requested a refund for both charges.

*Btw, if you are still up, and they have a manager on duty, he should be able to easily void the initial transaction. It's a "Code 4" or "6" - depending on the Zon machine. It's a Void, NOT a Credit. -A VOID is immediate, a Credit is not. And since most hotels don't consolidate (that's not the right word) their charges until 3:00am...

Just so everyone knows - we'll be starting to serve food at about 7 tomorrow and there really is no glory in being fashionably late - unless you really can't get here at 7. (I know some folk have to leave before 9.)

My head is spinning - I think I'll try to fall unconscious now... laters, ol' pals...

Jose - I mentioned that there would be plenty to eat besides the beef because I think Larry doesn't care for beef that much, and I wanted to assure him there would be plenty of other stuff to eat - assuming all goes well and he makes it here.

Family vibes to dear Penny

I just talked to the desk again - they only void or "release" the charge through their authorization company - the company said it would be done and would take a day "or so." Of course, I cannot have that, so I'm hoping paypal will do the right thing and just credit the money back into the account immediately. I've told the hotel guy that if they need to speak to management that that will need to happen immediately first thing in the morning.

This does not bode well for a good night's sleep, either.

bk · « **Reply #10 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:45:49 PM »

I guess I'll be walking everywhere tomorrow until this is rectified.

bk · « **Reply #11 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:46:35 PM »

Welcome fifteen GUESTS.

bk · « **Reply #12 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:46:49 PM »

I guess I'll try to go to sleep now.

bk · « **Reply #13 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:47:06 PM »

But I am agitato.

bk · « **Reply #14 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:49:57 PM »

Agitato, do you hear me?

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #15 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:50:41 PM »

bk - As long as the credit/void is in the system, you may already have the "credit" showing on your account - even if the funds aren't actually there. Just dream happy dreams.

Ah, well.. I know that BK was also concerned about eating a healthy meal. Maybe one of us should prepare his plate for him.

bk · « **Reply #17 on:** July 24, 2008, 10:55:10 PM »

I checked the account and it certainly isn't there right now. Hopefully the call in the morning will work - I think I had to do this once before and it worked. One way or another, I won't get off the phone until it's fixed. I should have brought my other cc's but I didn't.

The turkey sandwich was REALLY not very good. Blechhh - what a day.

Oh...

And also in attendance at tonight's performance of Grease... Max Crumm and Laura Osnes.

-They happened to be sitting at the other end of the row from me and Rodzinski.

I am putting my bones to bed right now.

G'night.

-And once I left the Brooks Atkinson, I headed over to the Schonfeld to catch up with Jason... And also to see the crowd at the stage door that was waiting for Mario Lopez to come out... And then it was over to The Palace where I witnessed the total craziness at the stage door waiting for the newest "Star On Broadway", the new Elle Woods. The crowd was HUGE!!! It looked like the largest crowd I've seen there for that show.

-And as I walked to the subway, I didn't feel too bad about not being with a show right now.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #23 on:** July 24, 2008, 11:11:40 PM »

And...

Goodnight.

What am i doing up so early?

Druxy · « **Reply #25 on:** July 24, 2008, 11:45:08 PM »

Bruce, my friend:

My heart goes out to you.

I hate flying. It's the absolute pits.

Druxy · « **Reply #26 on:** July 24, 2008, 11:48:59 PM »

I have the DVD of "The Fantastiks".

Aside from the fact that the leading man was dull, my major objection is that they didn't open the film with "Try to Remember".

I guess that Coppola cut it.

Dumb!

It is, however, in the deleted scenes.

Druxy · « **Reply #27 on:** July 24, 2008, 11:52:58 PM »

I'm currently watching the CENTENNIAL mini-series on DVD.

Will probably watch several more of the 2-hour episodes this weekend. There are 12 in all.

I might even walk over to the Grove and see MAMA MIA.

Much going on here late last night/early this morning!!

bk, sorry to hear about your travel mishaps. Glad you are here safe and sound, and hope that the financial stuff is worked out quickly.

DR Cillaliz, thanks for sharing your trial experiences with us. It is most interesting.

DR PennyO - Wow. If I were ever in a pickle, I'd definitely want you on my side!
***CAREGIVER VIBES*** to you!

singdaw · « **Reply #29 on:** July 25, 2008, 02:05:50 AM »

DR FJL - I understand when the eating will commence. But what time would you prefer us to arrive?
