Illinois People
Ok so I was thinking there is several of us on the board now from Illinois. I just thought it would be really cool to meet up in a central location someday soon. We have what about 5 of us? I haven't seen Amber Jarvis (lizardqueen) on the board lateley, she is from the herrin area, then theres lisa, Ryndi, me, .... and anyone else i am missing... I just thought it would be great if we could figure something out and do someting fun.  what do ya think?

hmmm...I'm not from Illinois BUT I'm only about a 3 hour drive from Chicago.  If you plan this thing would you consider a wee Michigander busting into your party? I promise that I won't behave...

In this life, I apparently suck at logistics
Zen's just over in Iowa, and also close. I did try to put a get-together together once, but life got in my way. Apparently, unless it's last minute, I just suck at logistics in my personal life. Set a place, set a time, I'll do my dead-level best to be there.

Right there with you
After getting together with Whitney (sort of losing my meet-someone-from-the-forum virginity, so to speak ), my enthusiasm for meeting more TT folks is at an all-time high. You peeples are my heroes.
