I'm leaving for Chicago Friday morning.
YIPEE, a day off for me.
Wanna give me a ride to the airport?
I hate taxi's around here.
Rick is off to the lake with the dog for a fishing weekend.
Hopefully he will feel good enough for that.
I am having a girls weekend. A friend from southern CA is going to Chicago for a conference which begins on Monday. We will play Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I then go back home Sunday night and she begins her conference.
Just the idea of no phones and no cranky people sounds delightful to me.
Then again I am going to the airport what the hell am I thinking? There will be more cranky ass people than ever all in one place.
I don't normally fly Southwest. I have always been proud not to.
When you work for a GDS as I did, Southwest is not your friend.
So it was ingrained in me my whole career.
But I didn't want to fly to O'Hare and have that horrific trip from Rosemont Illinois (O'Hare) to downtown. So I bit the bullet and booked a SW flight and will fly right into Midway which is in the city. I hope I don't regret this booking, but it was the only carrier that went non stop from here to Midway.
So nothing from me for awhile.
I'm sure there will be photo's and stories upon my return.
I love Chicago so I know this will be a great visit. I really believe if the weather was better there everyone would want to live there. (2nd to Toronto for me)

wishing you smooth travels - enjoy this much-deserved vacation time!
Carma,thanks! I'm excited to go.
I don't know if you remember any of my Southwest stories but I think flying Southwest is like going to the DMV.
Mike - or Walmart. :-(
It should make for some great phone photos to share with ya'll.
And no I don't recall your SW stories so I may have to look those up.
We usually do Southwest because it is cheaper.
Have fun on your trip! I'm going out with my friends tonight so that's like a tiny little vacation ;)
Be safe and have a great trip. We'll look forward to the stories and photos!
Chicago is SO much fun! Miracle Mile, Navy Pier... So much to do. My sister lives there, but we don't get to visit as often as I'd like.
Stephanie, thanks. And good luck on your book!!
