dude, I am sorry. I ended up at the Whiskey Bar and Grill and ordered Jack and Cokes until I was feelin good. I went with my girlfriend and my Aunt and Uncle, so I didn't get any guff.
Sunday night was great. Who saw the fireworks? Michigan Ave and most of the outlet streets off of it for a mile or more was completely shutdown, devoid of cars...except for a few million people. Absolutely cool atmosphere. I love this town and all the people have that Midwestern Hospitality.
On the way back on W. Adams some dude cracked his head open in a 3 bike pileup. Blood eeeeverywhere!
We emptied 3 bottles of wine before the fireworks and joked around like idiots before the fireworks and afterwards too, wrestling in the hotel room like a bunch of children, me, my girlfriend, and my 30-something aunt/uncle acting like fools and having a hell of a time in this city.
Ah, Chicago, I'm gonna live there someday.
