@bright_helpings hey, idk if you and yours have plans Friday evening, but you're welcome to stop by the computer club if y'all would like.
I'm assuming you've got other plans or folks, but if not, the space is in the Nokomis neighborhood and is a couple blocks off the light rail line. There's usually drinks and snacks and nerds being silly.
Best of luck with the family and all of that, as well. :)
@starless Thank you! But sadly the twin cities part of my adventures has had to end in order to start the seeing-my-parents part, they just live too far away. I really appreciate the offer though
