The NASA travel office can't reserve most NYC hotels because most aren't FEMA-qualified (meeting fire safety codes), and the ones that are, don't have government rates. The usual dodge is to have the traveler book his/her own reservation directly with a non-FEMA hotel. Fine... I did that for this week.

Except that when my travel to NYC changed from tonight to Thursday night, the travel office changed everything else, but I forgot to cancel my hotel. So I'm getting personally charged $200 for a useless night's non-stay. Sigh. They wouldn't transfer it to a Thursday night stay, saying that they were sold out (although the hotel's website says that there are rooms available). Grr.

You can always crash here, if you're desperate.

That's very kind, thanks! Although I do have a Thursday night reservation near Penn Station.

OTOH, would you be interested in dinner Thursday?

Certainly! I'm off work at 5:30, and my office is at 500 5th Ave. near 42nd; if you're free then, why don't you just come meet me there? Otherwise, we can pick somewhere else to meet. I don't know where you'll be during the day.
