I hope everyone’s having a good Wednesday.
If it’s happy hour, I’ll have 27 of anything with alcohol in it. 😉
How was the trip to the big city?
Actually everything went very smooth.
How’s your day gone so far?
I think any time they don’t stick a big needle into your neck it’s a good thing.
If that’s the case, I definitely came away from this appointment good. 🙂
Hey, I find myself roommate-less for the Chicago meetup? You game? 😛
Sure, except I’m not going to be able to attend. 😛
That’s ok – just pay for your half of the room.
Pickmepickmepickme! 😉
Hey, are you going?
See, problem solved. 😛
If you come to Chicago, I’ll harass anybody that picks on you about smoking. Or if you don’t come to Chicago, I’ll join all those people who harass you about smoking.
I guess you’d better get in line with the harassers. I don’t know though, it’s a pretty long line.
I’m trying to make up my mind…will people still come if I’m there?
I don’t know about that. Maybe you should say you’re not coming and then just show up. 🙂
If you don’t already have a roommate and you don’t mind snoring and flailing around trying to find the cool part of my pillow, I’d be happy to share a room.
What hotel is it? Or is it an undisclosed location?
Don’t know yet.
It’s non-chosen location. We were going to let people pick their own but I’m going to check to see if any place is offering any packages or specials. But staying downtown isn’t going to be cheap. The best deal I’ve found is $169 at the Congress.
OOh, the Congress. Does the room come with a sexy intern?
It’s clean and has reliable plumbing. Make of that what you will. 😉
The place that used to be known as the Fitzpatrick Hotel (it’s called the Affinia now) has the comfiest beds ever…but definitely not a budget place. (I stayed there for business.)
Both of the “budget” places we used to stay at (the Bismark and the Oxford House) have been remade into expensive places.
They seem to do that with everything, don’t they?
you don’t mind snoring
I knew it! 😛
I will cop to snoring ONCE and then it wakes me up. But only when I sleep on my back.
Yeah I bet if there was a tape recorder in the room when you slept, you would put a buzz saw to shame. 🙂
she didn’t snore when she was at our place. 😛
She must have been subconsciously being polite. 🙂
That’s the only time I’m polite. I’m a yankee, ya know.
If I were going, you being there would be just the cherry on top. 🙂
Weel if I go, you have to go too.
Sorry CG, just isn’t in the cards.
I expect a lot of live blogging and pictures though.
are you fishing for begging?
No, I’m just having an episode of low blog-esteem. But I’m sure begging would help that… 🙂
Consider yourself thoroughly and convincingly begged.
I feel better already. Now about those stupid new airplane rules…
…don’t worry, you can bring the lube…up to 4 oz. that is.
My day is so far gone.
Excitement and adventure, that’s what Andi is. 🙂
Hi. I get confused sometimes on who and when I’ve said hi to everyone. 🙂
Maybe they sucked out some of your smart cells last time they stuck the needle in your head.
They found vacuum. 🙁
but it closed before I had a chance to respond … 🙂
Yep it’s difficult in between cafes. 🙂
That sounds delish! I have a great pasta sauce w/ asiago and goat cheese.
Not sure … I’m not feeling very hungry … (I was in bed by 11pm last night … can you believe it?)

Ah youth, how quickly it flees. 😉
Ah geezerhood, it arrives to quickly. 😉
🙂
your impending decrepitude.
Ice cream flavor du jour is ….?
but I’m not sure I even feel like eating it … that’s how I know I’m not well …
You haven’t noticed any funny pods growing in the garden, have you?
I’ve got to run an errand. Be back in awhile.
Must see smackdown of Rumsfeld and the Bush cabal.
and already downloaded the Quicktime video from Crooks & Liars…
Off to go watch — have a great evening folks…
