You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

People, you don't need to defend Boston to a Floridian living in California. Please.

snap! snerk

We're not even hog butcher to the world anymore....

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

We're not even hog butcher to the world anymore....

You can have it back. North Carolina would do just fine without this particular distinction.

Aw. Sleepy noodle. I hope he feels better when he wakes, and that he doesn't wake in the middle of the night.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, and Chicago is known for architecture (the best in the world),

It's the City With Big Shoulders or something, no?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's the City With Big Shoulders or something, no?
Yeah. Or so said the same guy who called us hog butcher to the world.

Boston has the most convoluted and frightening traffic in the Western World! That's got to count for something, right?

Alas, it's terribly deficient in decent Middle Eastern food compared to other cities of its size.

Chicago has a decent university itself.

What is even happening?

Chris tends to sleep his sick away, which is really kind of nice for him and for me. I have a cousin who did that as a wee one, too. Poor little Mac. He's lucky he's got such a good mom taking care of him.

aurelia, I would have said the same on Chicago's behalf. I've only been there a couple of times but as Frankie says, it's my kind of town.

What the heck is Chicago known for?

Wind. The el. (L? Damned if I know.) Fucking O'Hare

Everything I know about Chicago, I learned from Sara Paretsky or plane travel.
