Living in Indiana, Chicago is a nice spot for a long weekend…as long as it’s between May and September, preferably. We used to go all the time when we couldn’t afford a “real” vacation, but it had been way too long since I spent any quality (read: non-work) time in the Windy City.

Last weekend we fixed that, and squeezed in as much Chicago fun as we could. We saw 3 shows: Six, Hamilton, and Cubs v. Reds. That last one was a little different…rather avant garde, really. I’m not sure I followed the plot through all 9 acts. But I highly recommend Six if you have a chance to see it before it closes in a week.

^^This is me “casually” taking a giant step so I can show off that this is in fact a jumpsuit, not a maxi dress. Why is it that we feel the need to let people know exactly what kind of garment we’re wearing? “I love your dress!” “Thanks – it’s actually a skirt and top.” Or: “I love your hat!” “Thanks – it’s actually an authentic Nigerian gele head scarf.

I don’t know, but for some reason I find it much more exciting that this is a jumpsuit, so dammit, you’re all gonna know about it. Please compliment me accordingly.
