San-Diegan or LA-based Pelicans...

There is a chance that I may be going out to Cali during my spring break. The dates are March 9-March 13 or 14. I know it's a big risk to even think of asking this on here, as I don't know any of you personally nor do you know me, hence the dangers that spring to my mind at least, but I have nowhere to stay and the airline ticket is gonna cost me close to $600 (and that's if I bought one today).

Ordinarily it wouldn't be a problem, as I had a b/f who lived in the San Diego area and I've been staying with him when I've been out before for the last 4-5 years, but he's got a new g/f now and doesn't want to put me up, and I really don't want to stay in a hotel and worry about having to rent a car, etc.

So if anyone would be willing to let me stay with them while I'm out there (IF I end up going) I'd really appreciate it.

Like I said, this is an idea in progress...I've been trying to get back to Cali for a year now. And going with my parents would be my first choice but they have no interest in going to Cali (or London for that matter...

Just a little Pelican OT humor there, porsche911girl. If you hang around here long enough, you become immune

Not to scare anyone off, I'm quite cute, I promise!

No need to appease all the nutjobs in this place.... I'm sure someone with suitable digs will step forward soon and politely offer you a place to crash. Lots of good people here who would appreciate meeting & talking to a TRUE female Porsche fanatic

911 girl, I assure you that I was kidding and I'm sorry if I offended you. Pelicans world-wide are exceedingly generous and I would offer lodging myself if I had the space.

It was just an inside joke where people here constantly say, "TTIWWOP", but in this case it may have been in bad taste. I'm sure that you are plenty cute and it would not matter anyways. Have a great trip and if you need anything else in L.A. drop me a message. I hope that you accept my apology.

I think she needs further innoculation.

At first you'll feel a little prick...wait, no, that's not right. It's the guys with the big trucks that have little pricks. We're making up for our bald head, bad looks and weight!
