Okay, I'm going to Chicago tomorrow! Who's having pizza with me?
Speaking of the thread on meeting other DU'ers, I am getting on a plane (this should be nationally recognized, people!) and going to a writers' conference in Chicago for a few days.

Who's having pizza with me tomorrow night, huh? It'll be all the political discussion you can handle, with a little beer and pizza thrown in! Disclaimer: No host, or I'll be spending the night on the sidewalk outside my hotel...:scared:

We'll have a blast; PM me if you can make it!

1. Aw...I wish we lived closer.
I'd love to meet you. But a 4 hour drive on a weeknight just won't work. Sorry! :(

7. The plane is scary enough for me
After reading DemoTex these many years, I'm only sorry he won't be flying the plane; I could sit back and relax! :hi:

If I see any snakes, I'll report back RIGHT AWAY to the Lounge!

4. I'd love to, but I will just miss you
I'll be cruising through Chicago later on today on my way up to Wisconsin.

Then again, I don't think that there's anywhere close I can park a 70 foot rig in those parts. I'd have to take a cab from Gary.

Hop a jet and c'mon out! If you do, I'll buy you a beer! ;-)

11. That's not a bad idea
Though having a pizza and a beer with Julie is probably a better idea.

12. Okay, it's the nighttime crew
I refuse to believe that in the entire Chicago area, there are so few that can't come out on a Wednesday night for some fun and frolic! We won't stay out all night. We'll have a great time anyway!

Yoooo-hooooo! Is anyone home?

14. Ah, Julie, I so wish I could be there....
But I am moving on Saturday and have two closings to attend on Friday. So much to do and I am presently overwhelmed and exhausted...

Even so, I hope that you enjoy your stay in Chicago. Maybe you will make it back here another time when I am less frenzied?
