07/29: Cougars vs Peoria @ Wrigley Took long enough to write this. I found myself standing around Wrigley again, which is sure enough time to get started. Too late for a narrative, but maybe bullet points. There's tons of photos on flickr too. 1) The neighborhood itself was taking the day off. My usual parking place was unstaffed, and I got stuck at a place that boxes me in instead. The bars and the atmosphere felt different too? 2) but maybe that's because the crowd was different too. Lots more families, less 20/30s singles. tickets for Peoria Chiefs.

Storming. Storming. We had a really powerful storm barrel through Chicago last night. Naz, Jen, Cinnamon and I were on our way home from a sneak preview of Pineapple Express and were waiting on the Belmont CTA platform as it rolled in. I got some video of the light show before the rain started.and after: When we got to Montrose, where our car was parked, the Metra underpass at Ravenswood was flooded, and a car had stalled out after plowing through more than a foot of water. Some. baseball tickets.
