"The Big Stink"
Bobbi and I had our original plans of leaving for Chicago on Tuesday scraped due to a "Big Noreaster" developing between us and Chi-Town. Therefore, we left on Wednesday and made it down there and 3.5 hours (actally only 2.5 due to time change!)(It's supposed to take somwhere around 5. ) I think our "making good time" was due to Jo Sue's car not having cruise control. We got down to her sisters house and waited for her to come hom, then we ate and drank and I learned what a absolutely shitty life she had when she was young, i knew it was bad, just not THAT bad. The next day we went to The Chicago Field Museum, it wasnt what I had expected really but all-in-all it did okay on cool points.
Highlights: Seen the worlds lagest, most-complete and all around best T-Rex, it callled Sue and is 44 feet hight, i think. Seen a meteroite from Mars (not exciting, but at least I can say i saw one.) Seen other average cool stuff you'd expect to see at a museum. But the absolute best thing was the baseball in America exhibit, it had everything from Harry Carey's glasses to a Cecil Fielder Candy bar to babe Ruths 54 ounce bat (i use a 26 ouncer). If your an American like me and like baseball for some weird cultural reason you will love this exhibit, there are tons more things in their that deserve mention but if ya wanna know what they are just go and see it yourself and make your own judgements.
Lowlights: Half the damn museum (really) was devoted to Indian stuff, it was crazy, how many damn bowls can they display, i now know what really killed the Indians, not just the white man in general, the dang white mans museum, they prolly didnt have any cooking utensils or bows and arrows left after that museum was done taking what they wanted. (i know it was all sorts of different kinds of indians, and alot of the stuff was very cool, the first 100 times i saw it!!, i dont care if one painted in little zig zags and the other in squares, a bowls a bowl, they shoulda put something cool in there like the white mans guns and howduring the civil war the south unifroms were different from the norths and all the little differences between the states and all the little important differences that people actully care about.) (i was trying to be funny there.) we stayed until closing and left back for her sis's house in rush hour traffic, it wasnt too bad, a 45 minute trip only took us almost 2 hours. Then we watched President Bush talk on TV bout how were gonna go to war, then we watched the stuff that people actually care about like Survivor and CSI. (i bet they got higher ratings) The next morning we heading back home due to Bobbi having to work and also made good time on the way back, got gasoline at meijer in holland for 1.67 (i bet you paid like 1.72, am i correct melissa?) (mike prolly would of had to pay like 5.50 a gallon for petrol.) My favorite part of the trip back was following the guy who had the bumper stickers on his car that read. "I love my assault rifles" and "Will work for Ammo." Guess what exit he got off on? i desperatly wanna lie and say Hart but its not true he got off at new era which is like 12 miles away from hart. Should i of lied for stories sake?
No info back from walmart or meijer yet about a job but walmart did call Ghetto Mart trying to check my references but the boss man wasnt there. Damn! I would be running that place by now if they would have. My first act of business would be: "Free Smiley Face Buttons For All My Cousins!!!!
