Yeah, I am not riding with you if you're going to be a zombie and trying to eat me.

Oh, good. I was going to pack a baseball bat in my suitcase if it were the latter.

How many fucking times do I have to tell you people how shitty of a weapon a baseball bat is for fighting off zombies outside of very temporary circumstances?

That is what you say now, but just wait until it goes into effect.  Human flesh will look like chocolate cake.

A gun is an impractical weapon to get a hold of. A crowbar would be ideal to have in a pinch and is one of the more versatile weapons one could carry in a zombie holocaust.

I have a crowbar at work. You can not have it to kill me.

And I retract the whole zombie thing. You guys are NOT going to have an excuse to chase me around the city with a crowbar/bat claiming that I eat brains.

Chicago's definitely a no for me, because if I'm going anywhere next summer, it's San Francisco pride, my friends made me promise them. Also in January I'd be doing a few days in NYC too, to go see my friend Marcus so it's the perfect meet for me to go to, if I can afford it.

I'm crossing my fingers.

I hope I am not replying to this too late but, when will you be in NYC?

I'll PM you my number in a sec if you'd like to meet up.

Watching the house with a couple of friends the weekend this is happening.  I think I might have one dressed up as a shadow and have the other talk obnoxiously about comic books nobody cares about just so I can have the Bostoncon experience.  We will also eat cereal.

Guys, are we still having a chicken party this weekend?  Jon suggested it a long time ago and i think it's a great idea, but I wanted to make sure everyone else was still in on it, too.

If we are, we will need to do it Saturday, meaning we will need to establish what we want Friday. We need to order 24 hours in advance and the minimum order needs to be $100, which is easily hittable for the group of us attending (I am anticipating fuck tons of nuggets and sandwiches).

Considering my obsession with Chick-Fil-A, I'm obviously in, who else is interested?

I wanted to aim for delivery to save us the trouble of all eight of us having to take the bus up there together. We've got to drop $100 between us all minimum, but I don't foresee that being a problem, especially considering the two of us are likely to drop $20 a piece each.

If we get close, I'll buy the difference and just save the chicken for later.  We know how well it reheats.   I'd rather pay an extra $10 for more food than spend 3 hours in travel in the cold.  Blegh.

Guys, I am now only questionable for Boston. My temperature at this moment is 102.5. I am not sure if this is a horrid fever or the flu, but it is still very much in question whether I will be better by Friday.

Also, Eed, I'm not sure if CFA has mashed potatoes, but they do have waffle fries and they're delicious!!

I've had terrible waffle fries there, but I've also had the best waffle fries of my life there, so I'm going to assume the terrible time was the exception. Yes, against my better judgement I will commit to spending godawful amounts of money on fast food.

Double checked and confirmed, for some weird reason, they will not deliver fries.

In terms of towels, bring your own. I don't want you grubby fucks touching mine.

Eed - So it looks like the weather in Columbus is pretty shit right now and I know they've closed at least one highway up there, so drive safely! If something happens tonight, just give me a call and if something's still wonky in the morning with my bus, I'll call you, too.

And that's good to know about towels. I will make sure to pack one.

If the snow ruins my meetup, I'm going to burn the entire fucking forum down.

Either that or take pictures of myself playing four person board games all by myself and looking sad.

I might do that anyway, just so I can feel like an artist or something.

If I do manage to rest and heal up for this in time, would it be possible to leave my car in North Adams somewhere and ride into Boston with you guys? I am all about minimizing road time for me if I still have residual dizziness.

The eggs were pretty delicious. Also American bacon is shaped weird.

Quite obviously I arrived ok.

And I really wish my internet hadn't broken before I left because then I would have had the foresight to bring my own towels. Now I'll have to demand some of Jon.

Update part deux: Went shopping today. Daniel stopped by for a while. We just ordered an assload of Chick-Fil-A for tomorrow night.

(if you watch the news this weekend and hear about a coup in Iceland, he is the culprit)
