When All the @NCTE Hotels Are Booked, We Get Clever and Go with AirBnB. Found the Perfect Space for @CwpFairfield...Winterfell 3-Bedroom Estate

We have dragons, swords, arcade games, knights and a wide variety of painted winter scenes that you'd find in the man-caves of 70 year old men. Each room is bannered with a t..v. and arcade games (board games) along the house. The backyard has a 10 foot skeleton with body parts strewn about the yard...the decor is leaved ceilings and walls and electric guitars with disco lights.

A man empire indeed, and it's all our for the next three days.

The road trip was boring. Pennsylvania is the biggest buzz kill in the universe.....driving and driving along nothingness, although when we were detoured of the highway for a while it grew more exciting. We stopped twice, making the entire trip 11 hours, which was two hours longer than I expected. I was a jerk and insisted on driving the entire way (just to say I did it). On the way back, I may not be as selfish. 

We walked around THE Ohio State University looking for a place to eat, but mostly found bars filled with frat boys and sorority girls. We finally found a Brazilian tapas place which was delicious but skimpy. We got pizza slices when we walked back hom.

This morning, I'm waking up ready for the adventure to come. I have back to back sessions beginning at 12:30, and am free after 5. Woot Woot. I haven't planned out Saturday yet, except for my presentations and dinner with Penguin Random House. 

Alright...need to keep it short because we have to find a breakfast place and get our butts moving to the Conventions Center. 

I already know that our abode will definitely be the highlight of the trip. How can it not be? Who the hell decorated this place.

And if you want to smell Pinesol for the rest of your life, we have your location!
