Chicago.......back home

Yes we all have a long week-end because it is the start of summer. A time for higher gas prices, increased visits to the emergency room, risky behaviors and time to get your travel on.

Me and my two girls, Kobe age- 8 and Kierra age- 6, went to Chicago 4 the week-end. Our plan was to attend Shedd aquarium but my Cousin Marie told me she could get your boy in for free on a later date. I quickly curbed them plans cause it cost $25 bones per person to get in. We paid the $15 to park and jumped on the free trolley car and went around the whole city. It was fun and something new. I met an older lady from New York who sat by me and we talked about the differences from her city and Chicago. It was nice to meet a new friend.

One thing I noticed was all the foreign people on the trolley and the foods they had. Man that trolley smelled like dirty floor mat and nursing home patient butt. Yuck! That trolley did not move until it was standing room only. Then this crazy looking man sat his daughter by me and he was staring at me like I was a child molester. When a new chair opened up he called his "Sophie" to sit by him and she said no!! I was like what the heck....I was thinking to myself "please move before I have to catch a case dealing with you crazy daddy".

I saw the beautiful lake, (it was freezing) I saw a wedding taking place, a man getting beat down in the park by cops, I saw a homeless man taking a poop in the alley, and saw all my family. It was the worst of times, yet the best of times for real, lol.

I missed my bed because hotel bed have that-somebody has been having sex on me and it wasn't you- feel to it. I couldn't wait to get home. I spent about $100 on gas, what a bummer. But the best part of the trip was going to the all you can eat soul food spot. It cost $18 per head. I was skeptical...... at first. Mannn that food was County Kitchen to the tenth power!!! They had it all, I mean greens, yams, peach and apple cobbler, ribs, catfish, corn on the cobs,dressing, sweet cornbread, kool-aide,red beans and rice.... well you get the point. I was upset because I wasn't ready for that. I couldn't hurt them like I will next month. I am in training to go back. I am on a temporary hunger strike. I will eat 14 pounds. Yall pray for me....I am ready to enter into the (K)jungle, lol!

eYe aM WArd....
