    And that's all we can expect!  I'm right there with you, because I'm pretty sure we'd be besties if we lived near each other.

    This was me as soon as we started talking about an HP NBC GTG :

    I'M NOT WORTHY! I have this idea that you are all so beautiful and intelligent and sophisticated, and I am dumb and dumpy and not nearly witty enough to be in your collective presence. 

    I'm not fancy, y'all.

    (I "liked" your post because I felt the same... not because I think you are unworthy! :) )

    I got excited then immediately anxious but then DH was like "It's not like you guys are strangers...you talk on the board all the time." (just like @EliStar said..)  I'm glad he's the sensible one of the two of us.

    Also, I hope we have a Midwest Nestie GTG in the near future before HP World.... That's not a confession really just a hope so I have "meet people in person from the interwebz" trial run!

    I would 100% come to Chicago.  It's only about four hours away from where I'm at and I love that city.

    I just discovered that a HS classmate named his son Bucyrus.  As in the town in Ohio (pronouced bew-Cyrus).

    Columbus is also pretty superb and probably cheaper than Chicago, but I could probably swing Chicago too!

    Chicago sounds cool. I've never been. Kansas City would also be quite lovely for a Midwest GTG. :D

    I could make Chicago work. It's like 3 hours I think for me.

    @duxcaelo - thanks!  Emmy joined the family May 10!

    @WillyH19 - I think your due date was the same as mine?  Did I miss some news?

    OMG I was so nervous before I met other NBCers, but everyone I have met has been so freaking amazing.

    I am far away from basically everyone (I think funkyp is the closest to me at like 5 hours away), but I will fly wherever I need to be for a fun GTG :)
