Steak and Egg, Fool.

Monthly Chicago Meetup: June Edition

TINCC, but if there were, it would certainly agree that we are wont to gather for lagers, darks, lights, steak and eggs, and general revelry at 6ish on Wednesday, June 3rd at The Billy Goat Tavern, 430 N Michigan Ave. (Below street level.) Come for the threat of having the bird flipped in your general direction, stay for the aftermath of having the bird flipped in your general direction. Hurry! Only two monthly meetups remain before the great equalizer that is the 10th anniversary block party.

Well there goes any sense of anticipation, eamondaly. Now I just have to wallow in it.

Teaching on Wednesday nights again, so this is my monthly notification that I will poop out as usual.

Can't make it. I'm stuck in my transit planning class. :-(

Someone pour a Long Island ice tea down eamondaly's gullet for me though.

I FINALLY remember to make sure I'm not working on Meet-up night and now I have a wake to go to. I guess the next meet-up I make will be the big block party extravaganza.

Usually I'm the first one there, but today I'll be upstairs working late. Someone call/text/email me when y'all get there.

6:30 or 7:00 as usual for me. Gonna be leaving at 9:00 or 9:30, too.

I'll be there 6ish.

If the trains align, I'll be there around 6:30. If not, 7:00.
posted by SpiffyRob at 8:50 AM on June 3, 2009

I'll be late as usual. Don't judge me.
posted by eamondaly at 10:50 AM on June 3, 2009

I will come, and this time when the last 173 pulls up with no other bus in sight I will not assume that the girl who is leaning off the curb and into the street is doing so because she's interested in that bus, thus assuring me that the bus will be signaled. Oh no.

We'll judge you, eamondaly, as we damn well please and not because you're tardy, either!
posted by crush-onastick at 11:48 AM on June 3, 2009

I'm practicing my judging right now.

Given the general tenor of this thread, I'm a little concerned about the female-to-male ratio this month.

WHERE'S MY DOGS?!
posted by eamondaly at 2:50 PM on June 3, 2009

Okay, those photographs are a bit curious ... :)

hydrophonic: I find your photo highly disturbing. HIGHLY.
posted by crush-onastick at 6:20 AM on June 5, 2009

I traded in my briefcase for a bucket of quarters because we're not moving to the place with the in-unit washer dryer for a couple of months.

And crush: Ha!
