Things I'm Most Looking Forward to about this Weekend (other than the fact I've never been to Chicago)

• Seeing one of my favorite people in the entire universe tomorrow night (for the first time in over 2 years)
• Deepdish pizza-the real deal, not that crappy Pizza Hut™ stuff
• A ride in a speedboat on Lake Michigan...I do love lakes. And boats. And Cities. So the combination of all of these things has got to be just perfectly lovely
• The Tallest Building in all of the USA
• A sweet hotel room overlooking the water
• Seeing my freshman year college roommate for the first time since we graduated; she & I used to really find some trouble in the form of 7 Aristocrat [crap] vodka shots and sometimes a small bottle of Fierce Melon Gatorade. And fraternity boys. And a bad-ass rap CD. Sometimes all in the same night!
• Acquiring some more frequent miles that I love (and need) so much
• 2 hours in the sky and one new James Patterson thriller
• Riding the "L"
• Shopping the Magnifigent Mile...though it's unlikely I can afford anything on it.
• The Shedd Aquarium, apparently it is amazing.
• MCA...I do love modern art
• Seeing that "really good" art school my buddy went to by the name of the Art Institute of Chicago. You may have heard of it?
• Navy Pier
• Lots and lots and lots of architecture/cityscape pictures
• Lots and lots of laughter, smiles, hugs and surefire old-school college FUN
