The weekend

What an amazing weekend I had!


My lovely girlfriend Shanna and my lovely friend Mandi came to Chicago to see the sights and keep me company.
It was a gastronomically awesome time. Saturday we met up the other fellows from school to eat at "Hot Doug's", the world's best hot dog place. The line was literally three hours to get in. It's great to be with two pretty girls; we can cut in line and nobody cares. We enjoyed the pear and port wine elk sausage, the pheasant, the spicy hot one, a regular dog with all the fixins' and duck-fat fries. Chicago does its grease right.

Later that day we got poured on trying to enjoy the downtown sights, went out to some BYOB Thai food, visited the L&L, and met up with the guys again. Sunday we went to breakfast and followed up with some shopping. Did you know that vintage people were really small? That's why I have never found anything to buy in a vintage shop. If you're in Chicago and want some Pho, go to Tank noodles at the argyle stop off the red line. We were very pleased. Then we had too much fun at the Hopleaf with Aric from school. You can use all your senses to enjoy a beer, there's a picture here of us listening to it.
