Yo Chicago... →[More:]There's a possibility that I may be in Chicagoland on November 21st on my way to NW Indiana for the holidays. Anyone available for a beer? (And is there any chance of a spare couch?)

Caveat: This may not work out. I'm trying really hard to make it out there, though, and y'all could be a big help.

Plus, you know, I'm cool and all.

I'm available for beer, possibly a couch. Let me check with the missus.

Yes, a couch. Well, a futon. But I don't exactly live in civilization, so if you get an offer on the north side, you should take it.

Well, my plan is to get in to O'Hare on the afternoon of the 21st (2:15). I don't necessarily need to stay the night there, provided that I can get to a train that will take me to the Gary area before a brutal hour. But then I'd have to get someone to pick me up there, and I don't know if my family will have arrived from Texas yet. It's complicated, you see.

So anyway, the couch may be unnecessary, but the beer is very, very definitely ON. Me3dia, MrsPants, where are you?? (Who else is there?)

I have met mudpuppie, and can verify her coolness.

I'll seldom pass up an excuse to drink beer and as of now my 11/21 dance card is free - so I'm in.

I'm in, especially if we meet somewhere downtown. : )

I'm on the South Side, and I'm up for a beer. I also have space, but I think I'm too far out of the way.

(Sorry, I've been waaay busy and not around much.)

Yay! Muddie in Chicago!!!!

I'll be here on the 21st, and we also have a comfy couch, should it become necessary. It's slightly more convenient to public transportation that goatdogs and halonine's, but further away from Indiana.

I'm definitely free to hang out, though.
