I Saw You

  • Four names at the Owl

    My friend and I wanted some distraction, decided to go to the Owl. Checked out the dance floor area and saw the table you were sitting at with your friend and an empty chair. We asked if we could sit there. The night went along pretty nice; we made our acquaintance and I misheard your name. Long story short, I wish I had given you my number. Jerome was the last name we decided to use for you. I'd like to people-watch with you again sometime. 'Twas fun. When: Friday, November 23. Where: The Owl in Logan Square. You: Man. Me: Man. #904545

  • San Diego cardiologist at RSNA conference?

    We met last year when you were in town for RSNA. Hangge Upps on a Wednesday night, talking in the Westin lobby till 6 AM. Wires crossed when info was exchanged. Would love to see you again if you are here for the conference again this year. Time flies but I haven't forgotten! When: Monday, November 26. Where: Hangge-Uppe. You: Man. Me: Woman. #904544

  • Brian! Bud Light Port Paradise

    Brian, I met you on the Bud Light Port Paradise Cruise. You said you were from Chicago and a software engineer. I sprayed you in the face with beer when you passed out and we danced in the broken glass on the dance floor. I'm the girl from Portland you hung out with! When: Sunday, November 18. Where: Bud Light Port Paradise Cruise. You: Man. Me: Woman. #904542
