It's been a long time since I've written and so maybe I'll do more this week. I'm going on vacation and every time I tell someone that they say "oh where are you going." Well [i tell them] I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay at home and simply enjoy some time of NOT working. I haven't had a vacation like this in probably 2 years and I'm really going to enjoy it.
Ok so it isn't completely true. I plan on going to the Taste of Chicago next week around the 4th. I think this could be really cool. I will probably miss the John Mayer concert [which i think is free] but it's alright. What's really awesome is that Julie is coming to visit starting Saturday, so maybe I'll have some pictures to post here when it's all said and done.
----------------------
I've successfully read all of the Harry Potter books [in a matter of 2 months] in preparation of the final volume coming out in July. I was in Borders the other day and they have a book predicting what will happen in the last book. Who would read that? I certainly don't want a bunch of over-obsessive Potter Nerds spoiling the ending for me since in all their infinite nerdom they probably got a few things right. In fact, I'm going to try to stay off the internet completely when the book comes out b/c there are people who find joy in spoiling the ending of popular books and movies since they know it upsets people. These people jump on message boards and forums and blogs and those kinds of things and try to get you to read the secret ending without warning. I think there is an extra hot section of hell for people that actually plan out how they are going to ruin an otherwise enjoyable experience for others that they don't even know.
I'm going to Six Flags tomorrow. I used to love to go there. Now I think that $40 a ticket is highway robbery!
