[02:59] <ChinnoDog> Commuting to Baltimore does not sound fun
[14:40] <maco> ChinnoDog: its the opposite direction of everybody else though, so thats good
[15:30] <ChinnoDog> maco: I guess? I work down town right now.
[15:31] <maco> no traffic ;)
[15:32] <ChinnoDog> I am in the metro. no traffic here either.
[15:33] <maco> i dont really understand people who voluntarily choose to drive into the city
[15:33] <ChinnoDog> s/in/on
[15:33] <maco> well, except when i think about the fact that the red line's been under constant construction for a year
[15:33] <ChinnoDog> me neither. also, parking at work is $18/day!
[15:34] <ChinnoDog> I am on orange
[19:34] <dobey> hola
[19:45] <dobey> anyone around?
[19:53] <maco> kinda
[19:57] <dobey> ah, i was talking to bcurtiswx before UDS, and he was saying people meet up at Taste of India nearly every saturday. and i'm coming up to DC on saturday, and was wondering if people are meeting up there then
[20:06] <maco> i dont think i'll be there. i have  LOT of sewing to do (i know that sounds funny, but i'm making costumes for a big event in a few weeks)
[20:07] <dobey> cool
[20:12] <dobey> is it a dinner thing, or a beer thing?
[20:14] <maco> dinner thing
[20:14] <maco> they have a bar
[20:14] <maco> but its mostly people having hummus & naan and some curry
[20:33] <dobey> ah
[20:33] <dobey> i probably won't go to that then, and i'll be getting there later anyway
[20:43] <ChinnoDog> maco: That doesn't sound funny. What kind of costume are you making?
[20:45] <maco> i was going to do 12th century English, but now i think Italian Ren
[20:45] <maco> my body type is more in line with italian clothing construction techniques than english
[20:46] <maco> (12th c. english = all rectangles, but should be tight on tummy....which...implies no curves at all)
[21:01] <ChinnoDog> maco: sounds like a fun event
[22:04] <dtchen> dobey: there's a keysigning, but it might (probably?) not happen at ToI
