Wed September 2 at 5:00 PM, Billy Goat Tavern
430 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago, IL, USA (Map & Directions)
Do you remember the second night in September? Only Blue Frog and Goat, remember the meetup we share today. ba dee yaaa goating in September ba dee yaa say that you remember...
It's time once again for our monthly Goatup!
Any potential newcomers, note that this is the location underneath Michigan Ave just north of the river. They always set up a long table for us over to the left as you walk in the door--you can't miss us. Festivities always proceed to the Blue Frog for karaoke at whenever people decide to go over there, usually 9? 8:30? maybe? Later.

I would LOVE to come, but will likely instead be sitting in my couch in the House Of No Fun feeling sorry for myself. (aka - hopefully in October I'll have enough stamina to leave the damn house.) (aka - WE HAVE ENTERED THE PART OF CONVALESCENCE WHERE I AM REALLY FUCKING BORED)

I thought technically we set up the tables then set them up again when more people came than there was table space then more tables again then splitting up tables when three people are at one end and another knot of people are at the other end.

I might have to head to NYC for a week or so just to stay with a friend there*, but if I don't, I will be able to make this!
Also bibliogrrl I am also bored so if you want someone to come visit you and bring you magazines or junk food, just let me know! I'm pretty well vetted by metafilter at this point :)
*I don't have a place to live right now! It's pretty exciting!

Bonus temptation: There is a strong possibility there will be cake at the Blue Frog.

Oh my gosh, you're killing me! That sounds amazing! But I ended up switching my trip back to NYC to be earlier because I have a place to stay there (and not a place to stay here). I am truly, truly missing out. I had a karaoke song all figured out and everything! Next time, though, for sure.

Yeah, I'm not saying my mentioning cake was directed specifically at bibliogrrl as some sort of tricky advanced healing spell. But I'm not not saying that either.

I want to do the thing (and I owe some of you a beer) but I have been awake since two in the damn morning.
...I've done this on less, mind you. I'm saying I'm a real solid maybe.
(Like the bff won't drag me out anyway, lbr.)

There is a distinct homicide vibe at the Frog right now.
