Okay, so I’m going to be heading into Chi on the 21st and leaving the 23rd. Last time I swung out that way I guess I made one or two dopers unhappy by not announcing my presence. I have learned my lesson. So, who needs and excuse for a party?
<bump>
Dude, I need an excuse for a party. If you drive, I’ll go with. 
Gang, let’s get a bunch of ChiDopers together for this. We need some contact with our friends badly.
At least I do.
He’ll be staying with me, of course, so email, call, post to this thread, whatever.
Count me in. I need hugs.
I’ll be there. Life sucks right now, and I could use some contact with friends.
As usual, give me the time and place. I’m easy.
Dyno, I haven’t even thought that far. Go figure. 
He gets in a little before 1000p on Friday night. We can all meet at my house then if we want. Or a bar/brothel/dark alley. Or Saturday night. I dunno.
You know you have a place to stay if you want to come all weekend, Dyno.
Please, ChiDopers, check in. We need each other.
I’ll see what I can do to make it, if you feel you’re short on people who sit quietly in the back and leave early. Lemme know where and when.
I can be there. Given that I’m only 3 days back in Chicago right now, I’m kinda hinky about taking the Red Line that late, so is it ok if I show up a little earlier, Nym? I’m not sure how much earlier. Kinda depends on when you’ll be home.
Tigg, you can of course come early. As a matter of fact, I’ll talk to a friend about coming to get you, if you want. If you’d like to spend the night, that’s fine as well. You just let me know what you want to do, sweetie.
If I am in town, which i should be, then I will be there (wherever “there” is).
I think I have a family thing to go to that Saturday, but I will try to stop by.
Consider me there in spirit.
In the flesh, I think I will be needed at home in the 'burbs. So, hoist one for me, OK?
Just tell me where to go, and I’ll be there.
Nope. You’re new. You are required to show up–didn’t you read your contract?
If you need a ride from another burber (far west, so most everything is on my way) who expects to arrive late and leave early, let me know.
Lapidary Journal, eh?
Springfield, now?
Well, it’s starting to look like a mini dopefest now. Thanks gang, I was beginning to feel unloved. Nym, I leave it to you to come up with the details.
Aight, I’m in. Email me details and such.
TIme for the obligatory roll call.
