Goodbye Chicago
This is my last weekend in Chicago.
1 Year, 4 Months.
That's how long I got to spend in Chicago.
I came here because A) I love Chicago B) I didn't think I was ready for the film industry in New York City and C) I hate Los Angeles
I have learned in the last few months that not only am I ready to live and work in New York City, but I am HIGHLY employable and some of the best companies in the business think I would make a great asset.
It's just shear cosmic destiny that the only place I didn't "know somebody who knows somebody" is now my employer.
Will I miss the people of Chicago? Yes
Will I miss the jazz/blues scene of Chicago? Yes
Will I miss the midwest? Yes
But most of all.. I will miss La Bamba
My girlfriend, Sue
Lake Michigan
Dining above the Gold Coast
West Town / Kinzie Industrial Corridor
The architectural visions of Meis van der Rohe and Frank Llloyd Wright and Prarie School students
I will also miss being so close to Detroit, Grand Rapids and Milwaukee for some of the best folks in this world come from those towns as well.
