advice

I am traveling to Chicago this weekend, and I'm meeting a friend from the internet that I met on Advicenators [irony?] three years ago.

I know, you're thinking, "DON'T MEET SOMEONE YOU'VE MET ONLINE!" I know. It's dangerous. I've thought of this for the past three years. But, we've talked on the phone, we've texted back and forth, we're friends on Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter, I've seen videos of her and her friends hanging out, and so has she for me. I'm like 99.9% sure she is not a 45-year old molester that's held a 17 year old girl hostage for three years, just to continue a lie.

So, my question is, is it normal to be nervous? What kinds of things should we talk about? What should we do?

What other advice do you have?

Thanks you. And, don't worry. She's bringing her friend with her, and I'm bringing my dad along, so if by some chance she is a creeper, I'm safe.

Dear Mr. Dixon Jr,

It is ok to be nervous, because you have never met her before. But don't worry, she's not some 50 year old creep who still lives at home in her mother's basement working at some lame place like A Touch of Green. She's actually a pretty fly 17 year old GIRL who lives in her OWN room, but still works at this lame place called a Touch of Green. Regardless, you will be safe.

You should talk about pizza, and how good it is in Chicago. You should also talk to random strangers, asking them to take a picture with you, and then tagging them on Facebook as your other Advicenators friends.

Finally, you should visit the Shedd Aquarium. They have penguins 'Nuff said.

Have fun! ;)

You're welc.

p.p.s.
Don't worry if other Advicenators follow in your footsteps, it is also normal XD

I'm dying of laughter.

It's like you're my online friend!

Oh wait a tick. You are ;].

I had such a great time. Let's do it again, sometime? =]
