h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Grrrr.
Well, my trip was lots and lots of fun. Except... well, the last bit.

Recap:
Friday night Big Tony and I arrive in OHare, are wisked away by my friend Amanda who I haven't seen since graduation. After a brief look around her place and a deep breathe we went out and hit the town and called up... KRISSY LEE! And in a crowded bar filled with folks we found each other pretty easily, considering my lame description: "Ummm, I have brown hair... I will be drinking beer"
And then the lot of us had some fun, recited simpsons until crying, and alcohol was consumed.

Next day I did the touristy thing, went up the sears tower, sought out blues brothers/ferris beuler landmarks, went out for yummy dinner and margaritas and then went to a party where I pretended I was a good friend of the host (which I wasn't) "Oh, yeah, we go way back..." Then more drinking and bars... *sigh*

Sunday, baseball... Wrigley Field... Man, now that's a ballpark... I even got invited to one of the rooftop baseball clubs for a bit... very cool... The cubs won And I decided that if I lived in Chicago there is no doubt I would be a Cub fan.

So that night we went to the airport at 8, an hour before our flight (this is where the bad part starts) and it wasn't until midnight they decided to tell us the flight was cancelled. so there we were stuck in chicago... luckily they put us up in a hotel, and the next day we got on the 9 flight to NY (only a half hour late)... so I'm a bit tired and late for work today... *sigh* Oh, and we did get $200 travel vouchers... which is nice but hey it means I'll have to fly United again.... grrrr

Stoopid United b******s!!

So, what did you think of this Krissy whoever person?

Okay... all I can say is that you somehow get invited to all the cool things. How in the world did your little butt get itself up to one of the rooftop baseball clubs? I do hope Anthony was invited too... "Sorry Ant, can't pass this up... but I promise I won't be gone long."

You weasel... you.

Yes Big Tony was up there too... it was pretty neat...

And Krissy, do you think they let me plant some ivy at Shea?

Well, you can certainly try, but it'll never be the same. Bricks-n-Ivy baby.
