Remember O Most Gracious Virgin Mary

Okay.  So i went to Chicago to visit with Caitlin Bobaitlin and Amy Tunafish.  Week before spring break. (this is the longest spring break i’ve ever had in my life!)  Besides Paris, Chicago= THE BIGGEST CITY I’VE EVEN BEEN IN.  Is that sad?  I dunno.  Chicago is pretty HUGE….it just keeps going on and on and on……and the clouds are lower than the buildings!  If that doesn’t scare a Lebtucky folk, then i don’t know what will.  Any way, i had a really good time.  Amy and I love Caitlin’s friends.  They are crazy, and  like to sing and dance wierd.  It’s like they would have been our friends if we’d gone to Northwestern anyway.  WE LOVE YOU!  I took MASS pictures but im going to wait til i get back to school to post them becauuuse my connection at home is basically nonexistant.  Oh, and in case you didn’t know…you can’t walk two blocks downtown Chicago without coming upon a coffeeshop/Starbucks. 

     So if you somehow are walking too briskly on your way to work in your cubicle, and pass up that Starbucks but don’t wan’t to turn around, either because then you’ll have to fight against the wind, and your hair will get in your face, or because you’ll be stampeeded by other fellow cubicle-coworkers, NEVER FEAR!  There’s another Starbucks around the corner! Or the next street after that….!

Anyway, i got sick.  Food poisoning? Stomach flu?  I really know not.  We were in Chicago from last Tuesday til Saturday, i got sick on Thursday night (before which Caitlin, Amy, David and I all went out to eat at this neat restaurant.  We were all starving and stuffed ourselves and got FRUNK.), i spent all night vomiting, all day Friday rolling around in misery on Caitlin’s futon, somehow got home Saturday, and yesterday, Tuesday, was the first day I actually got up and went out. 

 

SO, had a great time, but i must say, I prefer the trees to be taller than the buildings…much less MOUNTAINS to be taller than buildings.  Hey, I gotta be able to breathe!
