Well after 14 years of being married , the wife and i have decided to throw in the towel . we have two boys 12 and 14 , the 14 year old could care less ( teenage boy ) , the twelve year old is taking it a little harder , but i told him that i would take them to dcon , he is a huge nerd like myself , and is useing dcon to help deal with it (looking forward to something helps) , anyway the divorce will be as easy as one can be , we have been together off and on for 25 years , and were the best of friends even when we were apart , but we are going in two different directions , and the boys are old enough to deal . anyway i am keeping the house , no extra value in it so i wont have to pay out anything , but the added bills , that the wife helped with will make life tougher , so in order to make the con .I need me a roommate to pay for half the room , its at the hilton two double beds , kids will sleep on the floor , so whomever stays with us cant be a pee in the corner drunk ( cause they might pee on my kids ) we are going wednesday and leaving monday . 400 for the bed . 300 for floor space .and i need a solid commitment , if you say your gonna be there i really need you to follow through , payment when you arrive is ok , but if you can pay early to ease my worry that would be awesome ............ oh and keep an eye on the px , smartgun might have to go for the cause :(

Dude, I had my trial marriage, it taught me a lot so my actually marriage worked out much much better (I get to go to conventions like DragonCon!!!) So thing can work out. I'm trying to get a room at one of the convention hotels for me and some friends, but some might not be able to make it so who knows, I might hit you up for some space!

(Really late with this reply :oops: ).

Sorry to hear your situation Bro. I'm glad it isn't as ugly as some divorces can be.

I hope you're able to get a roomy for DC. :delta:

If you can put up with my snoring I may be able to throw in. Is that price for the whole weekend? I have to check with the boss since it is a retail weekend but if I submit for time off soon it may work.

It breaks my heart anytime that I have to sell a weapon. Even if it's a fake weapon. I hope you can work something out so you don't have to sell yours.

would like to go, can probably let you know in a week or so if nobody has already asked for that weekend off and if the offer still stands for the floor space I may take you up on it? And I'll bring the earplugs for all. I did send you a PM as well.
