I'm an Extraordinary Machine..

Hello Family & Friends-
I am writing from the windy city, Chicago. It is in fact, very windy. In fact, people are walking around in uggs and winter coats because it isn't even 60 degrees. Unbelievable considering I left the Dallas sunshine this morning where the highs have been in the upper 90s. *SIGH*

Dallas was a lot of fun. My co worker and I found a mere two hours to lay out at the pool and believe it or not, we both got sunburned. who knew that the Texas sun was so strong. I really enjoyed my time in Dallas because we were treated like royalty, which was a nice change of pace for a hotel. It was quite nice, indeed. My coworker's flight back to DC was cancelled last night due to storms in DC so she cabbed back to the Ritz and we went to dinner at a small rooftop bar that played the BEST MUSIC. I was happy as a clam when we found that little gem. Things only got 100% better once I found out they had my all time favorite beer, FAT TIRE, on tap. Life is good! The best part about it was that they were only $2! ALL NIGHT! wow. After 2 slices of pizza and 4 fat tires, we stumbled into a cab only to be greeted by the strangest taxicab driver ever. His taxi smelled of fried food and body odor and he had so much trash in his cab that it looked like a recycling bin on wheels. The weirdest part is that he had a picture of himself on the dashboard to prove his taxi man license and he was wearing the exact same shirt in the picture as he was when he picked us up. This means one of two things:

1) he got his license that very day
2) he lives out of his van cab and doesn't have a change of clothes

The verdict is still out on that one...

So tonight, I met up with my BEST friend from college, katie moore. Everything was exactly as I remembered between us, even though we haven't seen each other in over a year and half. We just talked the night away over Italian food and it was the best couple of hours all week.

BIG NEWS: As I am sure you all have heard by now, Carrie Prejean was finally asked to step down from her role as Miss California *sigh of relief*!! Apparently she wasn't doing her speaking obligations and not holding to her contract so Donald Trump used his famous two words, "You're Fired!"

Well that is all for now! Before I go, I want to give a second to my dear friend Jordan who's dad had to have open heart surgery after going in for a simple stress test. I am thinking of her and her family and wishing his dad a speedy recovery. I would just like to ask that you all keep her in your thoughts and prayers (if you do that sort of thing). Thanks a million!

Walking around Chicago, I ran into a Lego Man. So cool. He looks like the perfect man! He is well dressed, can't speak, and is ready to cuddle and show love. AMAZING!:)
