Yes, OK. ---

Sounds fine to me. ---

How does 1 PM work as a time? ---

The 19th is still good for me. ---

1pm is fine here, too. There’s nothing like _an appointment_ with people I barely know to give my early afternoon day drinking that sheen of authenticity. And keep up the good work spiking our weird views/posts ratio for the thread. Over 1000 now! ---

Sorry, guys, unlikely I’ll be able to make it. ---

I’m actually going to be in town on Thursday, just for the day on my way to somewhere else. Can do lunch or dinner. ---

Reminder: D’Agostino’s 1351 W Addison. 1 PM ---

Is something wrong with me that I think 1pm is early? Don’t answer that. I’ll be there, but not on the dot. ---

I hate doing this at the last minute but I gotta beg off this time. Hope everyone has a great time, though. ---

I’ll probably arrive 1:30ish. Maybe the first to arrive could try to grab that same corner spot at the bar near the door. Fisha, it just wasn’t in the cards this week. ---

I’m here, at the bar, same place as last time , wearing blue plaid shirt and Chicago reader next to me ---

I had a great time! There seems to be some interest in a winter Dopefest, probably in January. If you’re interested, post away. I like D’Agostino’s but I certainly don’t want another private party to take over the entire bar area. I’m open to pretty much any place with CTA access. ---

I’m really sorry to have missed it, and I hope for January. (We’re in the process of putting my mother-in-law into Medicaid and into a nursing facility, and every step is painful and more complicated than anticipated. I would MUCH rather have been drinking with y’all than sizing up nursing homes.) ---

Damn, sorry I missed it. Stupid job! Why couldn’t I just be on the dole like everyone else? January sounds good, though. D’Ag’s is fine by me. ---
