Things I did in Chicago this weekend:
- Attended a wedding reception on the top floor (the 95th, to be exact) of the Hancock Building. I never understood the phenomenon of restaurants on top of tall buildings before, but now I get it. They're tall.
- Watched the Dolphins lose in overtime.
- Read Autobiography of Red which I'll write about soon.
- Met some Polish people.
- Ate a burrito while listening to the Chicago Philharmonic perform various tunes while accompanied by a tap dancer. Or so they claimed. We were far away and while someone appeared to be tap dancing, it just as easily could have been a cellist trying to squash a cockroach.
- Counted spiders on tall buildings. Our hotel room had seven outside the window and the Hancock Building had dozens. When I told Heather about the oddity of spiders hanging out at the 95th floor, she immediately replied with a pitch perfect Spider-Man 4 plot. It was as if she'd already had a Spider-Man 4 plot in mind and was just waiting for the right opportunity to spring it on some unsuspecting Fox executive or boyfriend.
