Hopefully Chicago will survive! Lay off the beans until you hit Boston.

I am in the Embassy Suites in Rosemont. I didn't drive up, I took Amtrak. I only have a half-day class tomorrow, and then I have a couple of hours to kill before I head back home.

It hasn't hit yet, it is raining right now, but the tree have ice on them. Hopefully the temps will stay above 32* or it might get bad.

(( I am in the 'burbs of Chicago ))

The 300#, video game playing, Fritos crunching, Pepsi slurping 40 year old virgin sitting next to me for an hour could never be confused with a "little" anything.
