FedEx-ciddent

Two days after being fixed for attempted theft (see report) , my parked car was hit by a FedEx truck. This is the note I found. Apparently, Fed Ex drivers don't carry around pens and paper. Just pencils and wood chips.

This sign is better.

Please. Don't cross the street with your lightsaber and a third leg.

No high heels! What?!

This sign makes me sad. I don't like it, not at all.

Bowie In Space

I can't get over this show. I look forward to it every week.

Opera House @ night

I took this picture in January. I'm getting really ancy to go on another trip and keep looking through old pictures. American Airlines now flies non-stop from Chicago to Narita -- a reminder that keeps popping up in my head every so often...

Taste

So, as Chicago newbies we went to the Taste of Chicago unprepared for the crowds and vast amounts of water we probably needed. I still had fun eating Chicago, though. I think I tried at least two types of pizza, ice cream, cheese bread, toasted ravioli, pad thai, sherbert, watermelon, cheesecake, salad...I was the The Very Hungry Catepillar.

Monk...fish

I recently ordered Monkfish sashimi, not really knowing what kind of fish it was. I thought it sounded funny at the time; This fish does not look like he is into any funny business.

You can read more about this beautiful creature who is also known as an anglerfish.

I'm going to stick to salmon and tuna for awhile.

Dillon, CO

After this, we went to the Dam Brewery.

This fire ruined my trip to the zoo. We fled in a hasty panic.

Super cool glue

I saw this car on the beach in Santa Barbara last summer. I really can't describe it, but that's a lot of super glue.

R2D2 delivers your mail

Sail away, sail away, sail away...

Oh, how I want a sailboat. I am jealous everytime I look out my window.

Wine rack

Tyson made me a wine rack out of an old
general store crate he found in his basement. Sweet!

Amurrica! This truck was decked out for the 4th.

Chicago has become a destination for all things Fourth of July, beating out Las Vegas in recent years.
