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.
[@limabeing acting completely normal and mundane]
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.

You put on lipstick without me! I'm so jealous. 😉 Many people wouldn't go through the effort of taking picture of the wrong way to go, congratulations on your ingenuity!
It's good to read that you had a great time talking with people who like how your zany brain works!!
(Now I know what to cook for you on our 'date'. 😋)
Lol yeah my tastes buds are highly refined.
This looks so much fun, so these people are real and not robots on discord? I knew it!
Mehh they could still be some form of ai.
You make a good point Lima. I need to make it to one of these Boston meet ups and find out for myself!
Bring some tools for poking and prodding.
friends on the internet, lipstick, and meeting strangers. sounds like a fanfuckingtastic day! glad the steak was extra tasty!

Hi @limabeing, I just stopped back to let you know your post was one of my favourite reads and I included it in my Steemit Ramble. You can read what I wrote about your post here.
If you’d like to nominate someone’s post just visit the Steemit Ramble Discord
Thank youuuu!!!!
for the record. I'm not really a flatearther. It does drive justtryme90 a little nutz though. more importantly I think the world is a simulation as per after effects of the Mandela Effect.
Everybody knows this is the correct one...
In all seriousness-- thank you so much. It was awesome to meet everyone and swoon like the silly fangirl that i am. I barely remember how delicious that steak was.
yep...there she is... the spinning button of earth...finally the truth is coming out
lol i know right?!?!
You can’t hide the truth from us, we know what you really think already.
Oh, right i forgot to add that part!! I was getting tired and rushed through. Work was insane after that. Desr readers, please note that all the world is a simulation run by mice in the supercomputer. Also note: "Earth" is going to be destroyed today in order to make way for the intergalactic superhighway.
It was so nice to meet you! It was over too fast! I love the post, especially the parts about me!
😜🌈same!
@limabeing!!!! First of all, you are a beautiful woman, so don't sell yourself short and don't let anyone ever convince you otherwise! But I'm so jealous that you got to meet @aggroed and @r0nd0n!!! That's so sick!!!! I hope to someday meet both of them as well. I need to really work on pushing Steemit here in SLC so that we can start having local meetups as well here in Utah.
Yes!! N take pics of the ginger sheriff! N buy him a flower for his gun from me
I agree with the comment, you are really very pretty)

STOPI had no idea so many prominent Steemians were located in Boston, wow (except yourself, @limabeing. I knew that! 😛 ) Makes me miss the place even more.
That looks like one heck of a fun meetup and excellently portrayed. I can almost taste @aggroed's delicious steak (unless it wasn't well-done as intended by the old gods and the new then bleh!)
hahahahaaha lol YOU ARE A WEIRDO. i dont burn my steak and the gods personally spoke to me before I ate it and told me to make it medium well and also to NOT eat my greenbeans NOR to put any spicey sauces on it.
p.s. if you miss the place, maybe you should come back?

STOPMeeting people for real that you met on the internet sounds so crazy, but some of these experiences turn out to be better than one can envisage. I happened to meet a few people I met on Steemit in real too and all the crazy thoughts you experienced were running through my mind before the meet. Luckily, the meet up went really well and like you, I had a wonderful time too. Btw, you are super cute!
Thanks :) 🌈
