Ian are you going to the Chicago U2 shows as well? Will you be in the U.S. long enough to see an NFL game?

oh, exactly. we're getting to a ball game in st louis on the drive back to memphis anyway. it's not football, but football will still be going when i get back later in the year.okay. You'll have other opportunities to see a game.
I just kind of assumed there'd be public transit options available, though you've prompted me to take a look now. A quick transitchicago.com check shows that we should take the subway blue line towards forest park and get off at Clark/Lake and then walk 2 blocks.

It's rare that CTA or Metra don't go near places in Chicago.
Diemen, your train stop is like one mile from where I work.
It's all happening, people!

Already printed out and neatly organized in my purse. Along with directions to several other places I'm going.

Yes, but you should see how meticulously I've notated them!
If you see some guy out front holding a baseball bat and screaming your name, it may or may not be me.

I guess the trick will be knowing how to spot Utahian Justice when it is standing before you.

I have always thought about that parking spot shuttle...but, like you, have figured the flight and the stuff I was about to shove in my mouth was well worth a walk.

Suuuuucks. Have I mentioned how much I hate US History? yeah, these kids are getting a fun version of it.
I'm teaching an AP and honors section this year and it's kicking my ass. Not to mention I have parent-teacher conferences on Thursday night and Friday afternoon.
At least I have nice kids this year.
I hope you're enjoying your last weeks in Chicago.

You love history.
Sorry that it sucks so far. Rust, maybe, and the shock of summer being over?
I'm making the most of my last weeks, thanks. Have actually said "yes" to people asking me to hang out before I split....have 3 concerts....going away party itself.....still need to hit the Shedd....and of course work is hectic with FB starting....but, I feel like I'm leaving on a high note personally and professionally, and that makes me feel good about things.

I do love history but I loathe the textbook we are using. It's biased and flowery and I'd rather be talking about the 7 Years War than the French and Indian War. I am using my US classes as a recruiting base to get back my section of AP European History.
Leaving on a high note is what it's all about. It sounds like a good couple of weeks. I love going to the Shedd on days like today.

I've yet to visit the Shedd, have hit most of the other museums and such.
I know that you love history, and do not blame you for wanting to focus on eras and events other than what's in the textbook.
And, yeah, should be a great couple of weeks followed by a great drive out to the Bay Area....and then a whole new chapter begins.

I must have missed this part. Are you starting a new job? Or is it the same job being relocated?
