Chicago

Well today was a bit of a disaster. It was my fault really. I thought that since we were downtown we could invite Caroline and really there was nothing wrong with that decision. It just got a little crazy at the end. To be honest, I didn't think we would see her, she was waiting on someone to come and take her bunk beds and then she called and said she was going to meet us at watertower. She finally did but bff and I were feeding our faces with Auntie Anne's Pretzels so we were full of food and ready to shop. With me and bff, that was dinner kinda lol. Well we did some shopping at Borders and all got something I think. I told bff I bought family guy on dvd but that was a bold face lie :) We were not interested in food but we started to figure out that we needed to take the 8p train back rather than the 10p so we began going into meltdown panic mode about food. All I really had to offer was "I want Italian!" We ate at what was a Portillo's with a Barillos or something in it. The place itself was really kewl but it was like giong to the mall and ordering food at the food court, only less organized and more panicy. It was decorated like RENT so that was like being in the show lol. I'm just nutz I know. Anyway, by the time I got to eat, it was bascially time to go. I would have at least eaten my garlic bread that I got special, but my coke spilled all over it when I was trying to ssssqqqqqquuuuuueeeeeezzzzzzzeeeeee in the isle and not spill my tray on people. Could it be any more stupidly set up? I had pasta which was dumb cuz it was just the noodles with a bit of sauce on the top, much like a food court or school lunch. Grrrr. Other than that disaster of being rushed it was a good day. I imagined in my head that if I had been on some sort of date, I would have somehow found this all romantic or something because the actual eating space was neat and the walk to the station was very refreshing with all the lights *happy sigh*.

On an insane note we went to the Disney store today and I bought NOTHING!!! Not a single Stitch!!!! There was a sale going on Buy 1 Get 1 Free! There were these huge Stitches that were half the size of me and I"m 4'9" and they were fluffy and covered in hair/fur. They were only $40 so if you split the cost of 1 it would have been $20 for 2 of them. Can you believe that somehow I wasn't interested and managed to talk bff out of it???? What the hell is wrong with me???? Well, I'll tell ya lol. I thought it looked like an evil stitch, his hair was all everywhere and he looked mean and he looked like Harry Monster on Sesame Street. Very unhappy.
