Took a half day off of work in preparation for today! Though WildStar also just came out so I'll probably sneak an hour or two in before I head out to Skokie :P

I wish I had more of my Dresden t-shirts printed :( I would totally hand out a few to you guys but sadly I haven't had the time to print any in over a year.

So my schedule (miraculously) cleared and I will be coming up for the signing.  I saw some talk about meeting before for dinner, what time were people thinking of doing that?  I hope to be there between 5:30-6:00.

Heh, Jim said the other day that every time he gets asked that he just goes and plays another game of League of Legends.

You guys have me itching to produce another "list"

I don't know if I'll make the meetup beforehand, but I'll look for people at the event.  I'll probably have my bright red Red Court t-shirt on. 

(Here's my Facebook page in case anyone wants to get in touch).

Bah, somehow I got confused and thought you weren't going to be able to make it.  Awesome.

Made it up.  They are doing it in groups of 50.  Currently at 86.  Signing will be downstairs.

Edit: Wearing a white shirt with American flag and 'Harry Dresden is my hero' button.

Every time you ask Jim Butcher about the next Dresden Files book, George R. R. Martin kills a Stark.

No, I was listing an over done question.

I'm in Virginia.  Chicago is on my list of must visit places though.  I'll probably wait until Lil Serack can fully appreciate Sue though.  He's currently 2.

Understandable.  Sue has been around for a few million years, barring an act of Harry, she'll be around a bit longer :)
