Everyone from toledo should be arriving at the hotel hopefully sometime between 3-4 on the 26th. Three of us are taking the bus (from toledo to chicago) and will be shuttled by the others to the hotel upon arrival.
All of us are leaving on tues sometime.

I know it's a little weird to post here, but does anyone have a little sister, a cousin or any other little girl in their life who would like a ton of (free) lanyard craft stuff?

I also have a TON of little kid beads if anyone knows anyone who wants them.
Plain, this type, and more:

If so, it's yours. PM me.


Those things are expensive to buy new but I just want them to be enjoyed.











In other news, it's SO much warmer here than I thought it was going to be. Just a few days now. :-D

The hotel is sold out of regular rooms, but I just called and they have some discounted room if you mention M.O.S.E. sports festival (mayor's office of special events)

I have 3 awesome Funk bags that I just patched up, but I need some Bag Filler. The small and heavy shot. If anyone brings some I can give some cash (~$5-$10?) I was going to cannibalize one bag for the other, but I'd like to use them all, and I don't need so much filler cuz I don't stitch, so I don't wanna buy a whole bag of shot.

If you park on the street during NYJ there will be signs that say you can't park there if there's a soldier field event. There will be a Bears football game on the 28th (Monday) @ 730PM. So we'll have to move our cars to the street with meters at 530PM the latest. Since we usually have an intermission after 400PM, that'd be a good time to do it.

That's right Tom, I know what gets you going: man-hand tits. When Nathan wears his grip-tits shirt, just know that he's wearing it for you and your special taste.

:lol:

Like Tom said, anyone who still needs to book a room should ask if there are still M-O-S-E rooms available. It doesn't hurt to try.

Other than that, looks like we're gonna have some last second scrambling for a few displaced peoples. Hopefully we won't have to take this to the U.N.

Anybody with any spare room please PM me so I can try to steer people towards hotel rooms.

If we can't get people accomodated at the hotel we do have off-site crash space, but we want to get as many people situated at the hotel as possible, just to make things more practical.

So if you've already got your tickets and are planning on coming out, you should still come, we'll help you out.

It's not titties I'm seeing Em. If you look at the top left specially.
