Terminus was a lot of fun. I went with We drank much beer, partied like it was 1998, and socialized late into the night. I don’t have any awesome standout stories that come to mind but there were a lot of cool small incidents. - We saw a great video on how to make a duck tape purse.
- We jumped up and down a lot at Wrock Chicago.
- We ate at a lot of expensive places with $3 Cokes (no refills) and $15 hamburgers.
- We learned there are different parts of the internet.
- There was a memorable mint exchange that seemed to blow a cabbie’s mind
- I met many new HP/LJ folks.
- I paid $6.75 for a beer at Kitty O’Sheys
- We paid $5.99 a six pack at Warehouse Liquor around the corner
- Hilton screwed up our bill and billed us for 2 in-room fridges we never got and omitted billing us the $41/day parking. Once we got that cleared up we still couldn’t leave the parking lot because the machine said our ticket wasn’t validated. You would think that if you pay $164 for 4 days parking they would get it right!
- We skipped the Bon Voyage Ball so we could get home in time for T’s 1st day of school.
- XX had a gravy soaked lunch at a Flying J on the way home.
All in all, it was a good time. sociallyawkrd and quietish. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect but it was fairly close to what I imagined. The bands rocked, the attendees we all cool, and the weather could not have been better. |
