meaning, other than me...I forgot I'm out of town.

Moximitre 04-05-06 09:08 PM

I love how Chicago is taking over the ssfg forum. always got at least 2 on the front page

katio 04-05-06 09:19 PM

Yeah, excluding you. It's funny how I'm in your town in you're in mine, you must admit that the irony is brilliant.

salome 04-05-06 09:26 PM

do you guys have a rain contingency plan?

katio 04-05-06 09:27 PM

Rain? Hmmm, someone should have a house party in the event of rain.

efarrar 04-05-06 09:31 PM

I'm still down. I won't be out too long, but I think it will be nice and warm out (read: above 50 degrees).

You wouldnt happen to be the girl that ran into the 2 guys today (1 w/ a broken bike), would you?

If it's raining you should stop by Rapid Transit- we are open untill 8.

If it's raining, I'm going to try to finish up the stairmaster video.
I will be at Cal's around 4:30 if anyone wants to join me for a few.

WHOA. I am. Are you Jeff or Seth?

Tangsooyuk 04-06-06 09:04 PM

This is Seth. How are you finding your visit so far? Looks like even with the 90% chance of rain it stayed dry for you today. I hope you got out and found something to do today as well as last night. Its supposed to be crap tomorrow but J fixed that bike that he got hit by that car on so we may be in the streets late tomorrow if you are looking for something to do.

I miss chi-town and the prospect of an inner-city century almost warrants a visit!

We are doing one this weekend, but it has also spawned off onto another date with better planning. And then in august I plan to return the very successful century we had last year.

katio 04-07-06 01:51 PM

Hey I just want to thank you guys for showing me a good time out in the gritty streets of Chicago. I had major msg-high last night and my side still hurts from that fall but I'll take it as a parting souvenier. If you all ever come to the city and want a tour guide, let me know. Take care!

I vote for very late August. I think I'm getting home on the 20th or so.

Just imagine how bad your side would hurt without the assistance of medical MSG!
