Yay!

What were your favorite activities?

well, the whole reason for going was because I broke down and splurged on Lady Gaga tix for the little one, so there was that

the rest of the time was hanging out with roomie's brother and having him show us around the fancy stores where he has worked/knows people.

so we poked around the designer or whatever shops and all got to pretend we were FANCY

got to try on a Rolex. They are HEAVY (and also cost as much as a cheap automobile)

and Wrigley Field! but they aren't trying to save Ferris anymore

had never been to a real major sports league stadium or whatever before

And we got to ride the L!

really did, wanted to do something little one would remember forever. I have no doubt it succeeded

though next time maybe it will just be me. Then I can do whatever I want

That's awesome! How old is the little one these days?

17. time flies

SEVENTEEN!!!!

Wow! I was thinking 14-ish as well!
