Signing in Kansas City, MO 11/29/12

An upsetting, miserable day for both Jim and Shannon, my prayers are with them both. Here's hoping and trusting that Jim's medical team can ease and resolve it as soon as possible. Sheer misery.
No matter what one's mind may have intended to do, once in a while one's body just plain jumps the queue and outvotes all the other person-pieces. Laid out dog sick is absolutely a rotten thing to have to go through.

And while traveling, just to make it worse.
Best wishes, Jim, to a speedy recovery!

Driving to the Plaza for this event was a horrible experience for me.
Please do not hold future events in the busiest part of town, where I have to look for buildings with no street numbers, while dodging pedestrians, in the dark.
Shandra:
When I know it's going to be someplace unfamiliar, I always look it up on google maps first, streetview is great for finding "no so random" buildings... :) (Hint from an out-of-towner who doesn't particularly like driving in large cities.)

I'm pretty sure the venue is determined by the host Rainy Day Books, and I know that the Unity Temple on the Plaza is their go to venue for when they expect a large turnout. It seats 1200+ and is connected to a parking deck. I know traffic is bonkers there but I'd rather be patient with traffic and pedestrians than get shoe-horned into a rather modestly sized (though still awesome) book store.
I don't know about street numbers, but it does have a lighted Unity sign after dark and the tower is visible from quite a ways off during daylight.
I only got transplanted to KC for work about a year ago, had mixed feelings about it, but when the realization hit I'd actually be able to make it to signing events as long as I live here that was a big fat check in the plus column. :D
Feel better soon Jim!
