I feel very connected to this guy.
I bet the people on the flight were awful, annoying, demanding, rude and inconsiderate.
Most people are.
I don't blame him one moment for wanting to get out of that plane ASAP.
I think maybe my job is making me jaded.
I hope something new, better comes along soon...

Blinded
I've lost my glasses.
Seriously, my apartment isn't that big! Where could they be?
I've checked under the bed, by the bed, in the bathroom, in the medicine cabinet, under the couch in my makeup bag and even in the kitchen.
Good thing I wear contacts during the day.

Bewitched
- I am so jealous that Toi is on her way to London. I'm kind of glad to know she has blisters from her cute heels.
- I found a new breakfast place: Tweet. It's pretty awesome. Their quiche is to die for.
- I work a normal work with this week and will have two normal weekends this month. I am so excited.
- This is how I feel right now.
- Festivals in this town drive me crazy, mainly because it brings an insane amount of tourists to the city.
- Bullet formatting is my friend when I'm being lazy.
- I'm slowly learning Spanish, why didn't I take Spanish in College along with French?

Happy Friday! Oops, I mean Monday!
This past weekend was a bit insane, actually, my life is generally insane nowadays!
Friday I did a 25 - 30 mile bike ride through the streets of Chicago in what is called "Critical Mass". It was crazy and so much fun. I think the last time I rode a bike was 10 to 12 years ago. Boy, have I been sore the last couple days! Here's some video I've found of the craziness:
Saturday, I rode in an elevator with this guy and after a very long day of work, I met up with Aussie and hung out at Wicker Fest, which was very amusing. It was so nice to see Aussie! From there, I hopped a train to the loop and drank with my cousin until 5am.
Sunday was a VERY long day at work.
Today I am recuperating.
I need sleep, hydration and a good movie.

The Cork Test
I had one crazy weekend.
I was back in MI for a baby shower and a wedding shower.
With my family.
At least I earned two drinks out of it.
Ok, I didn't really earn them, but won them. Is it bad to bet on your family?
Anyhoo, my pregnant cousin is expecting a baby girl, or so the sonogram says, but the cork says differently.
What is the cork?
You've never seen this done?
Oh, silly friends, it is classic!
You dangle a cork from a string above the belly of a pregnant woman and it can tell you if she is having a boy or girl. A spinning cork is the sign of a girl and a back and forth motion indicates a boy.
It's not really scientific, but my mother claims it correctly predicted both myself and my brother.
So we will see if my cousin really has a little girl. It could be very amusing if she has a boy instead, she received lots of little pink clothes!

Scum of the Earth
Today I learned a very valuable lesson:
I am solely responsible for the temperature of my work place (according to a little old lady it's too warm) and I am to blame for the lining color of Coach handbags.
Feel free to rant and scold me.
But you might have to take a number and get in line.
Maybe bring a snack.
It's going to be quite a wait.

The Oracle Business
Alright, who followed and watched the World Cup?
Anyone?
I did...kind of.
I was more interested in it when I heard about this little guy.
Yep, I was only interested when an eight legged sea creature was involved.
What can I say? Sports need gimmicks for me to pay attention, that, or seats to a live game with beer and a hot dog!
Life here has been crazy. I had a friend from High school in town this weekend and we had a blast. I bought two dresses to wear home for the baby and wedding showers at the end of this month. (I promise more to come on that, as always, with my family there are tons of stories to share!)
We also saw Billy Elliot: The Musical and I surprisingly wasn't too disappointed. I love the movie, so I went knowing that it wouldn't be as good and was very pleased. To top off the weekend we did the Chicago Architecture Foundation River Cruise and learned tons about the city and it's architecture! As always, visits from friends are always too short. I wish weekends were much longer...
