Trip to Chicago
Well I drove up to Chicago with my girlfriend with the intentions on bringing back a rat terrier puppy. Well we didn't get the puppy, but I think we still had a good time regardless.
The hotel was pretty nice, even though they tried to stick us in the same room as someone else. Yea that's right, right after we checked in this other young couple had checked in and we happened to follow them into the parking garage and happened to follow them onto the third floor of the hotel. We almost happened to follow them into room 325 on that same floor but we both found that kind of odd. We went back down to the lobby to tell the front desk person that there was someone else that just walked into our room. After he checked to find out who checked the people in, he apologized and set us up in a "nicer" room. So we hurried off and went to our room before they changed their mines about the nicer room. I'm still not sure how much nicer it was since I didn't get to see the other one though.
I even attempted to see my best friend in Milwaukee since we were so close. I had talked to him prior to coming up there and he sounded pretty happy we were coming. He did mention that he was drinking some Paul Mason and some kind of 211 beer that I have never heard of, That was pretty much the last sentence I heard from him. When we got there his girlfriend answered his phone and told me that he was pretty much trashed and not responsive to anything. We went over his girlfriend's house and there he was just spread out on the bed....not going anywhere for a long while. His girlfriend attempted to wake him when we got there and when that worked attempted to have me wake him... even though I knew that was gonna have the same effect as me poking him with a q-tip. So not to totally ruin her Sweetest Day, we all went out to CO2 Ultra Lounge it was a pretty nice place and a nice change from the places here in Dayton. After that we left and went back to Chicago.
Even though we didn't get the dog while we were there, I really enjoyed the time we had. To be able to spend some time away felt pretty good. I'm really looking forward to the next trip to NY.
