Super-Fam Meetup Post #5

[htbthomas]

Man of Steel is a month away today, yay! Meetup is in Chicago, IL, June 14-15 (through 16 for some).

Can I get a final tally in the post of who is coming, who is not, and who might if the stars align? It's time to get those reservations made and such, so I can finalize plans. :)

Add another to the 'not coming' list. :( As much as I hate to miss the chance, we just don't have the money right now.

We *will* be seeing the movie right away, though, so I'll be here to chat. ^_~

[htbthomas]

Money is always an issue, isn't it? I'm so sorry you can't come either. But yeah, let's definitely chat after the movie!

:( Man seeing how everyone can't make it doesn't make me feel quite as bad but at the same time it bums me out, too!

Sadly I don't have the money - there's a family trip coming up (long story) and with the way things have been around here (another long story, lol) I can't get away again. I wish I could - I miss you!!

HUGS

((we should try to have a group chat though!!))

[htbthomas]

Yeah, it's too bad so many are having to drop! :( I'll still enjoy whomever is able to come, though.

Miss you, too! And def, a group chat. :)

I can't make it, but if anyone's in Seattle and wants to meet up, we can def do that!

[htbthomas]

I will try to push anyone Northwest your way, hopefully they'll comment here!

If the stars don't align for me, I would love to do a Northwest meet up! I'm in Vancouver. :D

It would have to be the weekend though, not the Friday. Getting Friday off is part of the star-alignment.

Barring any last minute surprises, I'll be there.

[htbthomas]

AWESOME. I'll work up some place and time details once I have a final tally.

As you posted above, that is still correct that I expect to make it but if there's this few, what then? Hopefully some of the interested but not yet confirmed will be able to make it or else this trip's going to seem pretty bare. :C

[htbthomas]

It IS going to seem lonely, but I think we can still have a nice time with a few. ♥ I'll try to get place and time things together soon.

I was thinking of a more suburban hotel location instead of downtown, because of money. Would you like me to make the reservation once we agree on a location?

[athenesolon]

I'm a little less constrained on cash now (hubby promised he'd pay for this trip if I graduated). I do think the suburbs might be a bit more difficult for me to get to simply because I'm planning on taking the train up, but I suppose I can take a cab from there if it's imperative (i.e. if priceline or a different reservation program ends up that way), sure.

[argentum_ls]

There are suburbs with excellent train connections into Chicago. Check with the station you're arriving into and see where the local lines go. You might be able to get a cheaper room and still have good travel connections.
