Fri June 15 at 8:00 PM, Krazy Fish
2501 Central Ave, Charlotte, NC, USA (Map & Directions)
Work is taking me to Charlotte and I'll be there for an extra day. Would love to get together with folks this Friday night, the 15th, and have some food and maybe a beer.
I'll be giving a talk for the library system on Thursday and will be very overprogrammed so would like to have a free day and then a meal with some MeFites. No strong preferences other than a place where I can get something decently healthy and/or a place that isn't super loud. Feel free to bring friends and/or family.
Shoot, I have to take Little Darling up to Virginia for freshman orientation on Friday; probably won't be back till 9ish.
If you all decide to go to Krazy Fish, I have a $40 Living Social voucher that will likely expire before we can get over there to use it. Would be glad to send it to someone to cover jessamyn's dinner and a couple of beers for the group.

That sounds like a tempting deal and myabe you could pop in and say hi if you don't get back too late.

Ian A. T. and I are headed that way on Friday and we'll likely be able to make a detour in Charlotte. We should be around at about 8, 8:30?

That is great news! I just saw a photo of Ian A.T. in another meetup photoset and was like "Wait a sec, doesn't he live someplace else?" So maybe we can call it for 8 at Krazy Fish if that works for Captain_Science & co?

I am so sorry I didn't check this sooner... stupid Living Social says my voucher can't be gifted. I will try to make it there if traffic cooperates!

Man do I live in the wrong part of North Carolina.

Is it too late to express interest?

Not at all, you can even just show up. The place is about four miles from where I am staying [I'm at some killer airbnb place on Walnut that local people should know about because it's stupid cheap and amazing] so I may bug someone for a ride home afterwards if anyone's going my way.

We hit some traffic and a stretch of road work leaving town and we'll be there closer to 8:30.

We have an inside table with a view of the door.

Aw, man, I'd love to have been there, but alas, I am traveling, too.

That was fun - thanks for pulling it together, jessamyn, and safe travels home!

Totally enjoyed it. Sorry you couldn't make it Scattercat. Thanks for dinner coupon Sweetie Darling and thanks to everyone else for making the trip and hanging out.
