First of all, thank you guys so much for your congratulations, it really means a lot to me! I feel all warm and squishy inside knowing I have so much support.
In other news, Scott and I went to Chicago this weekend to visit D Flo, and it was tons of fun. We got to meet Ezzie, who is D Flo’s little Maltese puppy. She is a fluff ball of playfulness and love, and has reshaped my previously bad experience with Maltese. D Flo needs to video her and post for all to see.
On Friday, Scott and I went to the Museum of Science and Industry. It was tons of fun, though Scott had his hopes raised because Body Worlds 2 was on our map. However, it doesn’t open until next week. Hopes crushed! We still had lots of fun at the museum, and we saw a cool Omnimax about Deep Sea Volcanoes.
That night we went to see D Flo in a sketch Comedy show at Donny’s Skybox at Second City. The show was written by the Second City Conservatory writing students, and was quite entertaining. D Flo remains the funniest man I know.
On Saturday we went to the Shedd Aquarium. We saw the sharks and the rays and the dolphin show, the belugas, the sea dragons, and so on. I love aquariums, but it tempted me to run out and buy another betta, which I can’t do right now. Sadness! That night we ate out to celebrate my grad schoolness, and I got to see Squirt, who I haven’t gotten to hang out with in aaaaaaaaaaaaages. Yay Squirt!
The rest of the trip was all Guitar Hero and Mario Party, but I am very happy I was able to see D Flo. Yay Chicago!
Sounds like you had a great time! Oh yeah, and congrats again! ^_^
I’m gonna be up there in chicago myself in a couple weeks. Something about being Duryea’s Best Man or somethin’ like that (grin). I won’t be able to see the sites like you did, but I should be able to visit his new house and say howdy to his new “kids” (Parker and Crowley the cats, and Melley the doggy), plus one last hello at Polar Bear (I expect to get mugged – lol).
YAY! YAYRs!
Much fun was had by all, and everyone should come see my show in the three weeks that are left (Fridays at 9 at Second City).
I need to find a new pic of me and my girl to post. I don’t know how I’d do video.
Yay visits!
Boo sickness and Psychobilly Freakout!
