I might be moving up to Chicago for the summer. Don't take this as written in stone. I haven't fully decided.But my current job pays in a week what I could be making in one night Bartending again at Ravinia My parents just signed a lease that will last till september. So they're till roughly the end of the season. Unforutnately it seems I last checked Jobfinder, Craigslist and The Reader for word about the Levy Restaurant job fair just shortly before the ads were posted. I just checked again now and saw that the last day of the job fair ended today at 7pm. Tomorrow I think I'm going to call the restaurant ask if they're still looking for Bartenders. If they say yes I'm going to see if Shannon and Brian mind letting me stay in their spare room and give my two weeks. Given how desperate they were for people last year I'm pretty sure I can get myself back in even though I'm applying kinda late. That would put me in Chicago just as the festival started, and give me time to get my parents into their current place.

I just got my '29 Roadster replicar running but I still need to bleed the brakes, even so I don't think I'd take it up to Chicago yet, hope the public transit problems are at least somewhat cleared up? Also this means flying up to Chicago, so I'd pretty much only have a couple bags of clothes and my laptop. An air mattress might be a good investment.

Aside from that? Not much is new. I didn't come down here to make friends, I came to complete a task and I've let that goal get confused after meeting a really awesome person. Unfortunately going further with her is going to take more time than I'd probably have anyway and though I would be ok with that I've been missing out on other, older friendships waiting for a train that might not even come. Aside from her, this city has precious little that holds my attention. So I'm feeling moreso than ever that it's time to cut some ties and push off back to more variant climes...

Here's hoping...
