mijanNew York, New York, here we come!
This seems to be the year that it will FINALLY happen. Every other New Years Eve, SOMETHING has prevented us from getting to New York. Some years, it was work. Last year, my grandmere died on December 28th, and my sister and I had just gotten back home (with me recovering from a very nasty flu), and my mother was stuck on the Canadian border on her way home, so we weren't even together for the holiday. This year, however, my sister is here (back from grad school in England), my mother has both December 31st AND January 1st off from work, and my company is on holiday break. So, we're doing Times Square for midnight... we hope.
My sister is checking hotels in the area, but it's more fun to stay with friends. Is anyone in the New York area willing/able to provide couch/floor space for two Elves and a Hobbit? Or more precisely, my mother, sister, and myself? My sister actually has someone else she can stay with, so if you have space for just two people, that would be awesome, too. Oh, and my mother is completely cool about slash, gayness, and pretty much everything, so fear not the parental presence. She knows all about... well... me and my hobbies, and she thinks it's fine.
So... any takers? Is there any room at the inn? *makes puppy eyes* I'll bring slashy goodness!

Those are the people I meet up with in the NY area. (Although I don't know the person who posted last.)
