Before I get into talking about the meetup, JJ and I (and some by Secretmethod70, and a couple by others) took more like 1,500 pictures. I think he was forgetting the second card he pulled out that we put another 500 on when he wanted to start transferring the first 1,000. JJ and I have plans for some of those pictures in the form of soemthing very fun for everyone, but that will take a short amount of time (within a week, most likely) for me to edit up and put together.

We hung out together, we ate together, we talked and laughed and shared many, many hilarious jokes together, we played pool and scrabble and watched TV and movies and all kinds of stuff. The meetup was sort of scheduled for Saturday night... but it pretty much lasted Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Everyone went to JJ and Shesus' place on friday night- and we had such a great time that we were all pretty much inseparable until we each had to leave on sunday, etc. We met back up during the days to hang out together, we stayed late at JJ and Shesus' after the "meet-up dinner" and playing pool, and we all got back together during the day sunday to hang out, enjoy some crazy bowling- which is the most fun when you're with such a great group of people.

I have to say that watching each person leave, in turn, was kind of difficult. We all clicked so well, had so many laughs, that I really hated parting with everyone. There are pics of the whole group on the way, so you'll all eventually get to see a real, full, group shot of the TFP Chicago meet-up '06 crew.

And again, I know you're all clamoring for pics, but we took a shitload of them. lol so it's just taking some time to put them together and reducing them down a bit (JJ's camera is fucking awesome and takes incredible, BIG pictures lol).

And once again, a giant thank you to JJ and Shesus for being the absolute superstar hosts that they were, opening up their home for 14 people to go hang out in, for almost 3 full days. Like I said earlier- once we all got together, we were inseparable, and they had guests fairly non-stop.
