I've got a date on Tuesday -- Pretty excited for it. I'm just looking for advice from my fellow PA'ers as to what kind of nifty things are available to the lucky young lady and I in Chicago, specifically the Belmont and Clark area. I'm kind of aiming for this sort of agenda: Meet-up, coffee and chat, shop around, meal and a nice way to wrap it all up (which I think I know how to do, giggity :winky:)

Also trying to not obliterate my already meager cash flow. Thanks in advance guys! You are making me the happiest little Smalltime in the world right now.

    There is a show called Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind that is fucking incredible and you should see it with ever person you date to determine how awesome they are. Bonus: The show is constantly changing so you'll never see the same show.

    Do you guys like chinese food? There's a place right on the corner of Belmont and Clark called Bamboo Gardens. It's fairly inexpensive, and the food is good.

    For coffee, I don't know. There's a Starbucks right there, but that isn't all that interesting. There's a Caribou at 3025 Clark Street, which is pretty close.

    For shopping there's Taboo Tabou. :winky: You should probably save that for the second date thought.

    Ragstock and Hollywood Mirror are fun to poke around in, bout a block or so away from Belmont/Clark.

    Skoal Cat: I'm going to look into that show. It's a definite possibility. Hopefully I'm not the one who looks un-awesome because I don't like it lol.

    mcp: Funny that you mention it, but she actually pitched the idea of going to Taboo Tabou last night when we were setting up our little date last night. :winky:

    Thanks a bunch you two, at least now I have something to work with and feel less of a buffoon than usual hahaha.

    Go down the street to clybourn and take her to ignite, a gaming cafe. Own her in TF2 or rock band.

    Go to mollys cupcakes on Clark. First of all, the cupcakes are delicious. Bitches love cupcakes.

    Secondly its inexpensive, and they have intelligensia coffee.

    Thirdly, they have board games, like connect 4, which are perfect for dates.
