So I am on the orange line on my way to Midway Airport. I’ve had a really crazy week here in Chicago between work and my outings in the evenings.

I think this is definetely the place I need to move to escape Tampa. I understand the winters are wicked but I think I can endure this. Also the sales tax is rediculous… But I can deal with this as well.

My only complaint about the city is the multitude of vagrants. Some are agressive and I see the same ones all the time. They really should do something to clean that up… Especially given the crazy sales and hotel tax revenues they are bringing in.

I don’t get to come back for atleast four weeks for work (unfortunately). I am Definetely coming in October to participate in the Men’s Health Urbanathlon. Maybe I’ll be moved in by then.

Some of my stories from this week would be very entertaining but I know I can’t tell any of them. Some of my readership cannot be privy to such personal details. Maybe it’s time for a new secret blog. Anonymous even?

I am returning to Tampa for the weekend and then heading back to Newport News on Monday.
