Hey dudes! Admin has set a time for the Instant Chat (see http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/117094), and, assuming there are no changes, it will be on Monday at...
3 p.m. CDT - 4 p.m. EDT - 1 p.m. PDT - 2 p.m. MDT
So I can make it, and everyone else can make it too, right? Whenever it is, this is the thread to talk! (If you will be chatting on a different thread, let us all know which so we can find you. But I will be here.)
Stuff to talk about during chat? Anything. It'll all be here when the Admins are!
Yes, Monday, June 24. It will likely be just one Admin, because if two are on at once it gets confusing if we both try to post a comment at the same time.

@Admin
The 22nd is a Saturday, do You mean the 24th?
I will try to do this, even though I am busy that day!
Yes, I do. Thanks for catching that. I've corrected it. I'd turned my desk calendar to July to check something else and forgot to turn it back.

@Admin: Don't you mean June 24? Today, the 19th, is a Wednesday, and June 22nd is a Saturday. The coming Monday is June 24th. Do time zones make the dates different in Central Time than they are in Eastern Time or was that just a typo?
Yes, June 24. See explanation to Blue Fairy. I'm glad all you Chatterboxers are so sharp! It will remind me to be more careful.

I can definitely make it. *almost never leaves the house on weekdays*
(June 20, 2013 - 12:05 am)
Cool! I'll try and do it. As far as I know I have nothing planned for the set time.
(June 20, 2013 - 8:04 am)
I should be there too! Blu and I might have to leave early, though. I really hope we don't crash the internet at our house by posting a lot on different devices.:3

YAY!
(June 20, 2013 - 12:47 pm)
I will probably be there for part of the time.
(June 20, 2013 - 1:01 pm)
I think I'll be there.
(June 20, 2013 - 1:31 pm)
How long will the instant chat last?
I'm planning to be on for about an hour. Depending upon what else I have to do that day and how many comments come in, I may extend it beyond then. I will say when I'm signing off.

Instant Chat Qualification: If by chance there are thunderstorms at the appointed time, I will delay until they have passed.
(June 20, 2013 - 5:10 pm)
Admins, thunderstorms in what area?
Illinois. So far the forecast is for 30% chance. To me that means 70% chance it won't storm. But anytime the weather is hot and humid, there is a chance. I think 3 PM Central will be fine. Storms may develop after 4 pm.

I'll try to make it--it'll be fun to chat with you all!
(June 21, 2013 - 4:13 pm)
There are severe thunderstorms in my area RIGHT NOW. Just so you know. Although I don't think Admins are affected.
Right now, our forecast is for storms to start in 4 hours, so all is clear for Instant Chat to begin in about 6 minutes.
