An Attempt At Catching Up: Part 3

Back to day 3 of the Chicago trip. I decided this was going to be the day that I would check out all of the tourist crap. Since we were staying in Wicker Park I was planning on taking the subway to the city. Once I started walking I just felt like walking the whole way especially since it wound up seeming pretty close. The blocks went by much quicker than they do in New York and it was nice to look at all the interesting architecture. I bet architects here just walk around with perpetual erections. I walked along the river for a bit with all the obvious tourists.

This river water was actually quite tasty.

A pigeon crapped on my head. Seriously. Luckily, I had a napkin and got the majority of it. I quickly found a Starbucks bathroom and took a quick shower in there. Then I checked out Millennium Park.
I paid my respect to the Monolith.

This thing was precious. I kept waiting underneath for the milk to pour out on to my naked body but no such luck.

There were a lot of jackasses waving their hands around so that they could find their reflection. Jagass.

On the walk back to Wicker Park I saw this and was really scared and felt my pants trying to suffocate my testes. Please don’t look at this picture if you’re on the rebound.
f you live in the Chicago area please go to this and let me know if you can still close your eyes without seeing that face.

That night we played a show at this Applebees type restaurant. The food was really good and free…for me. Some friends that moved out there from NY earlier this year also came out for the show and it was great to ketchup with them. This show was probably the lamest of the tour since we were playing inside a restaurant where most of the people were 200 feet away and sitting in the outdoor seating. We did our thing regardless and I got to look at a Janis Joplin poster that we were playing beneath. It was only a couple blocks away from where we were staying so that was convenient and we got back before midnight and caught up on some sleep. That’s about all I’ve got to say about that day. I’m going to try and fit the last two days into the next post so that you can get some sleep this week.
