Writer's Block: Local Favorite
It isn't a single tourist site though living close to Chicago makes it so I have plenty of really cool places to take family when they visit. I love taking them to local restaurants, the food is so amazingly good here. It isn't just one place that is noteworthy either, just about everything is better here. Don't even get me started on the pizza ( Read more... ) -
Interior decorating
This is so out of my comfort zone. We moved into our place almost two years ago. We left everything just as the previous owners left it so I have a mirror in the dining room. Recently we bought a flat screen and mounted it on the wall. Other than that my walls are bare. The bedrooms are boring and white. I want to jazz things up and create ( Read more... ) -
The Metra
I love the Metra! It took me a year to figure out there was a station only 3 miles away from my house. Since that discovery I have visited the city more often and had a much better time. It is stressful to find parking not to mention all of the honking of horns and the endless construction. I live in the West Suburbs so the train ride is about ( Read more... ) -

His name is Drew and he is a very nice guy and we have quite a bit in common. We met because he was a regular customer at work and we just started ( Read more... ) -
Birthdays
My friend Lauren said I don't post enough and when I do I don't make them long enough. Yesterday was my birthday. Another year. I think my birthdays keep getting better and better. I love them, I love the attention I get. I also enjoy getting presents and eating cake. My cake this year is so yummy. I had my first cannoli and then we bought a ( Read more... ) -

More reviews
When we signed up for our DSL with AT&T they gave us a free 30 day trial to Vongo. Vongo is a service which allows you to download movies to your computer. It is competing with Netflicks. I have been very disappointed so far and will not be paying the $9.99 per month subscription fee. My main complaint is a severe lack of movie selection. Most ( Read more... )
