@aggroed bought me steak- a tallish tale

What had happened was.....

[ @aggroed may have worn this hat the entire time in order to conceal his secret identity as a local newspaper mogul]
also note: he claimed to be smiling under the hat

Turns out hes a vegetarian, sooooooo that steak was extra tasty.

I'm really full n got the itis. I also promised @stellabelle i wouldn't upvote any food so you dont get to see it. But lemme tell you. It was delish.

But lemme backtrack.

It was a delightful Saturday at the crack of noon

in which I panicked about meeting THE @aggroed IRL and other strangers. Should we hug? Shake hands? Will they get drunk? What should i wear? Dont be too revealing but dont be a slob. Why do i care so much? I almost didnt go. i went online to the one person and place where i could find answers on clothes and comforting words: msp deepend. @discordiant told me to wear heels and a shiny gold number. I rebuffed his advice. I'm not a piece of nerd candy. But i did put on lipstick.

And SO I Ventured Out On a Mission

Because---i really wanted free steak from @aggroed.

The train was later than usual and I was more tired than usual so i took to discord to connect with my devoted fans. They were supportive of my aims and mission. They mentioned how much they love and miss me and how lucky @aggroed and the other strangers were.

Although i love them back i had to focus on my mission. The train picked me up and i rode it to state street. Due to the fact that i am a logistical genius and otherwise super smart lady: i knew exactly where i was going. I took a picture of the wrong way to go knowing full well that it was the wrong way and headed confidently to my location.

Out of some sort of kizmet i found the spirit of @discordiant was also guiding me safely to my location. Its always good to know the sherrif is watching out for you. It was at this moment i became fully actualized
[my life is complete]

The Black Rose, exactly where I knew it would be
When i arrived, them old nerves came creeping back up when i realized i had no clue what @aggroed 's real name was or what he looked like. I inquired about a group.

"Shes waiting for you at the bar." Said the waitress. Ehhh... what?!?!? Could it be?

As i rounded the corner, a bouncy, jovial, GINGER bear came round the corner.

"Lima?!?"

"Ah. Yes. Heh." I replied cooly and confidently.

"R0nd0n's over there i gotta go ask about mmbjfygdg"

"R0nd0n!!!!?? " there wa mr pirate radio in the flesh. Sitting at the bar with his magical empress of a partner.

"This is errigan"

"Oooh! We've spoken"

"Probably in mspwaves chat" i put two and two together very quickly and definitely knew they were together without questioning for most of the lunch. (Boy, that would have been awkward. ) @errigankerrigan is amazing and thats no exaggeration. I invited her to @teamgirlpowa discord n plan to steal her from @r0nd0n

There was another guy there.

"I'm big in Japan" he stated with a wink as he sipped his ale. One might underestimate the shy charm of a biology sciency dude dressed like Mr. Rogers-- but not me. As we walked to our table I knew i was in for a treat.

Instantly @aggroed ordered fries and nachos while @justtryme90 dazzled us with his fancy book learnin. Apparently he's THE DUDE of @steemstem ! 🙀¡ He wants to pay scientists for peer review n make steam all legit in the supernerdy places. He had lots of great things to say about @ned and steemitinc of course, being that the block chain is so popular while steem is invest worthy and betterthan all the other coins.

We also discussed the fact that @aggroed thinks the earth is flat, how the immune system is dumb and the flu is a shapeshifting alien from ancient Egypt, how scifi is the best writing to read, the intricacies of crypto-economics ( in which i gave many riveting conclusions), and how @r0nd0n keeps mspwaves in working order.

At one point i cleverly interjected about music but they were baffled by my superior knowledge.

Then we took a pic!

The steak was really fking good.
