Stanley and Me
Here's Flat Stanley (FS). For those who don't know, FS is a school project where kids give him to people they know and take pictures of all the places he ends up. This guy has been to way more places than I have including Paris, Ireland, England, and throughout the United States. Most importantly, the Kedzie Stop on the Brown Line of the CTA. This is for a little girl in Pennsylvania who is the niece of a friend's friend of my girlfriend...

What trip to Chicago is complete without encased meat? FS at Superdawg.
Megan's dad made a surprised visit for her birthday. So, we went to the Chop House and then they
went to a Cubs vs. Padres game the next day instead of work.
Megan and a co-worker had a shared martini b-day party at work. Her co-worker has a niece or
something who's an "exotic dancer. So, for Megan's b-day, he gave her this card and a pair of her
old 8 inch tall dancing shoes.
BEST WORK PERK EVER! My co-worker, Ruth, and I got free tickets to the White Sox right behind the
Sox dugout a couple nights ago. Here's the team during the national anthem.
A disputed bunt where the umpires didn't see anything wrong, nor did anyone in the stadium, but it
was called back because a Twins player complained and they called it back. It was a very strange call
and took a lot of time to sort out. But, Ozzie had a few words with the umpire and that was
entertaining as always
Maintaining the field
Enforcing order
Just a few of the people with worse seats than I.
Mauer nailed a homerun when I shot this...
Another Ozzie moment. I wish I could see a replay of this because it was very improbable that the player was safe. But, oh well.... I was hoping to catch him getting thrown out. Didn't happen
SOX WIN!
Another lifelong dream fulfilled. I finally got a game ball. This was tossed to me by Paul Konerko! I came close to getting one a couple years ago at a Sox game, but I just came back from the food stand with drinks and nachos and a brat in my hand when it headed toward me. As I tried to maneuver around, the ball landed in the seat in front of me and I had to fight some kids for the ball, which I lost to another adult who got it. This only cost me a half a beer I spilled on the dugout that the guy I gave my extra seat to bought for me. GREAT DEAL!
My new work buddy. His name is Harold

Finally Going Outside On a Regular Basis
Looking downtown from Lincoln Park
Ivana Majic Longest? That's your real name? Really?
My bathroom is anything by "serene."
I don't know why this fascinates me so much. But, this is the Blue Cross/Blue Shield building. It was 20 stories tall and designed to be taller. So, they are adding another 24 stories or something on top.

Pig faced tow truck thing. Fine art indeed!
Talking about fine art, my old classrooms at the School of the Art Institute are under this new giant condo building. A huge condo building probably seemed like a lot better investment about 6 months ago...
The new Modern Wing at the Art Institute of Chicago is about to open!
The Aqua Building. It's suppose to look like this.
Bikes!
