I’m sorry to hear that, **Mr Bus Guy**. Looks like it’s going to be a pretty girly Chi-fest. 🙂 Just giving this thread a bump to remind people. ---

Looks like it will be a last minute call for whether I can make it. Night before last we had a nasty sleet storm with wind chiils hitting -30, it’s snowing right now, and more snow is expected Saturday. ---

Hmmmmm…my plans have been all over the place this week, but now it seems for sure I have to take my BF to the airport on Saturday. But if I don’t get back too horrendously late, I should be able to make it for dinner. Wbhat time are you guys thinking you will be at the restaurant? I know **MikeG** , so I should be able to spot you. Heck, if his cell number hasn’t changed, I probably still have it in my phone. Any way I could hook up with you guys if it works out? ---

[QUOTE=TLDRIDKJKLOLFTW] No, I’m totally coming! When and where is it? [/QUOTE] You should definitely come. It’s tomorrow night, dinner at Silver Seafood at around 6-6:30, and some folks who are going to be around earlier are meeting at Hazel’s apartment first. There are also plans to go to the Green Mill after. ---
