Ditto, mya, I apparently just suck at reading the board. I also escaped this meetup intact and would be happy to hang out if you were so inclined. I actually think a lot of the touristy shit in Chicago is really fun--the Mag Mile, the Art Institute, the contemporary art museum, museum of science and industry, aquarium, Grant Park, etc--but like Parker said, let us know if there are specific type things you want to do (kinds of food you want? music?) and we'll help out. This weekend is perfect so far and this afternoon my dog and I are just going to go lie in the fucking sun in a park, maybe take a nap, and read some exceedingly stupid magazines. I'm pretty excited about it.
All I want today is a burger with a fried egg on top. And maybe some gin and juice. Here is what I'm offering you guys: Woman Ass! NSFW Man ass! NSFW C-c-c-ombo Breaker! NSFW
I hate that point of being hungover (or maybe still drunk, I'm having trouble figuring it out) when you can't tell if you're still nauseous or if you're starving. If I put food in my stomach, will I immediately throw it back up? Or will it immediately cure me? I had fun plans for the day, but I'm not sure if I can get out of bed.
Oh yeah, been there before. I chanced food one time and almost threw up. Drink lots of water and hold off on food.
Hey - thanks guys. I shouldn't have assumed that the Chicagoans would find it in the Travel thread. So, what do we like to do....eat, drink, and hang out. s far as food, I guess I lean towards more fancy fare, it doesn't have to be 5 star gourmet, but I tend to stay away from the mass produced chain type restaurants. I love the farm to table concepts with locally sourced food, I like most cuisines. As far as drinks, I like wine, my husband loves beer. We both like the occasional fancy cocktail. I like art and museums, but my husband has a limited tolerance for such things. We both love music, pretty much any type except country. I mentioned that we are driving up, we are also bringing our two dogs (don't ask) so would love to know of some dog friendly things to do as well. We are staying at Hotel Monaco, which is located pretty close to Millenium Park. I had hoped to see a game at Wrigley Field, but no such luck. Let me tentatively float out the idea about meeting up with some folks to my husband and see how it goes over. As I have mentioned before, you guys are kind of my dirty little secret and I don't know how he would feel about meeting people "from the internet". He'd probably worry that we'd get our faces chewed off or get sold into sex slavery. Or even worse, he would track down my profile and read through my post history.
Well, the Art Institute has a Roy Lichenstein exhibit right now, so thats probably a good call. Id definitely recommend getting drinks at one of the rooftop bars downtown at somewhere like the Wit or the like.
For goodness sakes' Peru, you're going to piss me off again today aren't you? I'm about ready to give up hope to see a World Cup that includes my country in my lifetime.
Living in this place is weird. Today on my walk from the parking garage to the apartment I saw a chameleon on a tree. And when I first got here I saw a mongoose next to the road in the grass near our apartment.
Don't forget to wipe down the keyboard. It's damn difficult getting "man-spirit" out of there after it dries. So I've heard. Updated my Android software. EVREYTHNIG BORKEN. All settings, gone. Half presets, gone. Half preloaded words, gone. Half downloaded apps, gone. What. The. Fuck?
Miss i am currently on my phone here with my family. There was a lot of yelling in spanish, followed by sad resignation.
I found a good solution to curing hangovers. Go to Chinatown and get Prosperity Dumpling with a pork bun and a sesame ball from a nearby bakery. At this point, your stomach should be feeling better, but you're probably going to still be feeling like you're walking around in a giant tub of pudding. So go get something pierced. I promise you will feel alert again. I'm so glad I got it repierced, though. I feel whole again. Although it was outrageously overpriced. Like, ridiculously so. Does anyone want to cook me dinner?
