My friend Beastcub is inviting me out to Fanime and I really want to go, but I live all the way the hell in Phoenix, Arizona. :P bummer. i drove to San Fran before by myself and it wasn't pleasant. Those five hour energy drinks are meant to be taken in a lapsed time. lol Anywho, I was wondering if there was anyone driving from Arizona out there? I'm willing to help for gas. I would be staying with Beastcub for the time that I was there, and would like to leave when you leave so I have a way back home. lol I'm trust worthy and typically can be a quiet person and mind my own buisness and matters. you wouldn't have to worry about me being annoying in any way. i will be bringing a costume along, and it's sort of big. it's basically a mascot costume. He's Teto the fox-squirrel from naussica valley of the wind. so, with that said, if you or you know anyone please shoot me a message or anything. id greatly appriciate it. ^_^
You might want to check out cragslist for people who are going in that direction as well.
And if your budget for travel expenses is under $200, you might want to check out some airplane fares. Southwest may/may not be having the fare about $59/one way. I hear that some people fly for really really cheap on Virgin Airlines, too.
You could always go by train it'll get you close and you can sleep most the way
I've looked before for a friend from arizona to SF area for yaoi-con... Arizona to Nor-Cal is about a 10-12 hour commute by Amtrak. =/ Best options are to drive or fly.
