Chicago?


Recommended Posts

I'd be willing to go anywhere to meet up (Chicago and the Surrounding areas) but I will be getting tattoo'd at Pioneer Tattoo Studio at 3513 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60657
 

 

But since I'm in the general area I don't mind driving a bit or catching a train to meet up haha

Oh, that's walking distance from me, and thus not too far for @mightstone2k

But good luck getting any of the suburban folks into the city :)

 

Maybe I'll have to make a special trip just for them lol

Pfft, I'm a suburban folk!     Now maigrey's calling me names.   Next thing you know, I'll have a suburban drawl accent or something ;)

 

I go to to the city - just, rarely, and with much pestering.    I saw Pirates of Penzance ON a tall ship a couple years back!

Just wanted to give ya'll an update.

 

I'm torn right now between getting my sleeve tattoo started and paying off my Jeep loan. My job recently screwed me over big time and my schedule and guarenteed overtime is no more. The plan was always to finish paying off the Jeep and go back to school fulltime without a need to work. Unfortunately with this change at work my timeline off being debt free might have shifted to be sooner then anticipated due to my hate of this new change. I want to get out of this job and back to school but I'm not sure if I can swing the tattoo right now and accomplish the new debt free date I have in mind.

 

Will update again when I make my decision. With that said though I'm still down for a meet up even though I wouldn't be in town for a tattoo. So let me know!

Hello all. Not sure why I haven't posted here before. I'm in the western suburbs. Was hoping to go to C2E2 this weekend, but life had other plans...

Anyway, hello local nerds!

Bummer on C2E2.   I'll be heading to Acen with Flex in May though.

Hey my Chicago Nerd Friends!!  I'm just checking here.  I'm considering taking a train to Chicago (from St Louis) for the September 19th Cards/Cubs game at Wrigley.  

 

Does anyone have any advice on where to stay?  Or (and I know this is weird), have a couch a fellow nerd could crash on?  

 

Also, places that are worth visiting if I have time would be nice to know too! 

 

Thanks!!

Did you get tickets for the game already? That is a few days before my birthday, I think I might join you lol. As far as where to stay, there are lots of hotels near Wrigley Field. Probably pretty expensive tho. How long are you staying? I just started working in Chicago last week and am looking to move into the city sometime before September.

I have not gotten tickets yet.  Actually, I haven't even bought the train tickets.  The guy who's place I was going to stay at is (ironically) going to be in St Louis that weekend, so I can't stay there.  The original plan was to take the train up Friday evening, baseball game saturday, "sightseeing" on Sunday, and take the train home on Monday.
