For all you folks near to Chicago, Yuth and I are going to have a beer at Rock Bottom Brewery on July 23rd (a Saturday) in downtown Chicago.
All are welcome.
That is all.
And food too!
And also beer.
EDIT: For all interested, http://www.rockbottom.com/chicago/ (http://www.rockbottom.com/chicago/)
I shall join. However, I don't drink. I guess the question is: are you guys awesome enough to change my mind?

...you know.... I think you just offered to be a designated driver. :p
Yes. You guys will either be awesome, or make me drive you home.
One of those.
I dunno, I'm pretty awesome.
You're LATE!
Cy and I will be in Chicago July 8-10 for my cousin's wedding. You both fail at being timely =p
You're early! Make the time! I haven't seen you in years!
There is no charge for awesomeness. Or attractiveness.

Because getting to Chicago at any time is easy and cheap. ¬_¬
Though if you want to swing by and say hi while we're in town, Yuth, we might be able to arrange that.
A good idea! Where will you be?
I'm not sure which hotel we'll be at yet. I know the wedding is in one of the art museums. I'll let you know when we have more details.
Stay at the W! :)
Reminder to all the cool people - the SR Mini Gathering is coming up!
Music~!
I will be unable to come see you. At the time, I will be hosting a traveling rock band.
Look, how many times do I have to tell you, the video game doesn't count as a real band. =p
They're totally real!
I will be in Chicag-y this weekend, doing various chicago things. Probably too busy to hang out with anyone, but we'll be at the Wyndham hotel.
I will visit if at all possible.
Send a text to my cell phone, if you can. I prefer not to use it to talk when in the US as it's a pay-as-you-go and pretty expensive.

Chicago has come. Chicago has gone. I was super busy as I expected. Sorry if I missed anyone.
I was super drunk and couldn't drive. Looks like I'll have to come to Niagara. OH WELL.
OH GOD YUTH'S COMING TO NIAGARA! RUN FOR THE HILLS!
I mean, sweet!
Also, good thing you left town. We got hit by a massive storm last night. 600k people without power.
What time are we meeting up this Saturday? 6pm?
I'm gonna take the train out in the early morning. If you've got the time, I'm up for some walking. Otherwise, I'll take a later train.
I'm free in the afternoon and evening.
I'm meeting up with the in-laws at noon, but that will turn into a "I just got a new computer, can you help me set it up" deal. I probably won't be free until 5pm.
I usually park in the Millenium Park Garage - need to check how close that is.
Bleargh, family tech support.
My number's 847-219-7283. Feel free to text me when you're parked.
The Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery is at 1 W Grand Ave (corner of Grand Ave and State St). It is about a 15-min walk from Millennium Park, but there will probably be thunderstorms on Saturday. That may be better than the recent heat, but it will definitely ruin any enjoyment of the free Millennium Park concert and Navy Pier fireworks, if you want to see those.
Blah, that'll make the walk from Union Station extra fun!
Weather turned out good, and we had a great time waxing nostalgic about fandom history and stuff. We caught a little bit of the Millennium Park choral concert and walked around downtown. Everybody should come to Chicago.
KlSymph is a psychotic murderer, just letting you all know.
Seriously though, fun was had and good beer was drank.
*appears*
*stabs Yuth*
*disappears*
X_x
The mini-gathering was a success! Much fun was had by all. And yes, KL is a psychotic murderer... it's what happens when you moderate the Anime Addventure. :)
Balls of steel, that man.
Amen.

And we were lucky in the weather - a hour and a half later, it was thunderstorming like nobody's business!
Heh, Lucky Win :3 What's these fics?
We were discussing them over beer, 007 is apparently a secret agent of saving everything in sight.
You're darn right I am! I've got fanfiction dating back, oh, since 98 or so. :D
