Just arrived in Chicago, the city of my birth, along with other less important things. Dad got two rooms in this awesome hotel, the Sofitel on Water Tower, and I think I'm in love. They offered food at the door. Food at the door. FREE.

And we're going to Tucci Benucci for dinner. Unbelievable. I haven't been there since I was seven. It's in the Bloomingdales Building. When I was little I used to climb up the sides of the giant circular window and slide down. I have learned a little too much caution in life to attempt that now.

Sounds great, Lauren. *hugs* :)

Thank you. I hope your summer is going well too, Linda.

God, Chicago is AWESOME. Go see the Bean for me!

I went running through Millenium Park actually. I remember what that whole thing was like before it was even there.

I love the whole Millenium Park area. I think I hadn't been over there since it opened, or at least I don't remember it, but it really pleases me.

It's okay, Lauren! Being in love with a hotel doesn't make you any less of a person! Someday our country will accept your feelings and legalize human-building marriages! Have faith!

...yes. I can't picture this window thingy but it sounds pretty cool.

I think I liked the first half of Batman Begins better than the second half, but explosions were never really my thing (I know, I'm a ninny). But good lord, Christian Bale. I think our next endeavor should be converting him to a religion that encourages polygamy. Actually, you do that, and I'll work on inventing a love potion. Then we'll be all set.

I hope Chicago and its inhabitants are treating you well...I'll look forward to your, um, anecdotes and/or diatribes upon your return. (good luck?)

IT WAS THE MOST COMFORTABLE BED I EVER SLEPT ON.

I feel the same way. Although Dr. Crane is just so much fun. Especially the way he died. Hah. Anyway, C-Bale, I think he should just walk around without a shirt at all times. And really low slung pajama pants. That would make me VERY happy.

Chicago is fun. No diatribing yet.
