In about 18 hours I will be climbing onto a train and letting it take me to Union Station in Chicago. I'm looking forward to the time alone on the

Wow! Sounds like an lj-worthy adventure in the making. My Monday suggestion is that you go to that humble diner where the jogging lady stops by with her dog and they feed it without saying a word.

I hope I can find myself there again. That entire breakfast experience was straight out of a movie. Remember the guys selling the Chicago Tribune, at 5am, in the street? And that little uni-sex bathroom that we changed and brushed our teeth in?

Cool restaurant, forsure.

Other highlights from that trip include:
- Almost suffocating in the underground parking garage while trying to sleep.
- Trying to book a room at an $800 hotel.
- Taking a nap outside of the Field Museum.
- Giving away our leftovers.

hey man, baseball is baseball. according to my cousin-in-law, the away team clubhouse manager for the tigers, the twins are the nicest team in the league. they're worth rooting for (unless playing the tigers or pirates)

I'll agree with baseball is baseball.

Hope the trip is terrific. I went and saw Russian Circles last night with this girl from work. I walked in and there were only like 20 people there and I felt bad for the bands...then I turn around and there's Carp. It ended up being a cool night, more people showed up, Russian Circles was awesome, and Carp and I stood front and center.
