It's like riding a bike



Well it is exactly like riding a bike.. well, because that's what it is... I am enroute to bike awesome landia.

I kinda love it... I found a nice bike that I want now I just need to learn to ride it..

I know you're not supposed to forget... but Im not exactly miss coordination. I am also scared to ride in the streets. I have to get over this considering that I will be taking a class for credit that revolves around bike rides ( he said we will most likley do a century ride 100 MILES !)...

Luckily I have someone willing to teach me the rules of the road... Time to put my big girl helmet on and get going...

Is this real life...

Unoffical offical CTA Bus/Train Rules


I have been taking the bus in the city since paper hole-punched transfers and tokens, so I know a thing or 2 about the un-written laws of the CTA Bus etiquette.
here are a few notables and if you have any to add please feel free to leave them in my comments section...

1) Do not crowd the bus... It slows everyone down ... it's ok to stand in the back by the stairs (I promise) ... Stop being a buncher and if people start to bunch then feel free to push past them..

2) elder, pregnant teen, person with a missing limb, or small children.. Let them sit...

3)don't spit your sunflower seeds on the floor of the bus.. That shit is ssooooo gross

4) Do not rile up the bus crazy person. He is screaming, she has a thousand bags... No amount of yelling will de-crazy a crazy person.. so just look forward to your stop and embrace the madness!

just a thought....

I was taking a class last semester on politics and youth .. and read an interesting article about how youth nowadays has been prolonged until sometime in the 30's ... there is this new restless stage .. you have responsibilities and expectations and such but.. you are just not ready to settle down..

I feel it... there is the generational divide that is very clear when I am with my aunts and uncles and especially my grandparents. Questions about marriage and Children and such.. and the disapproving glances when I brush off their queries...

anyone who knows me is fully aware that I am not ready for ANY of those things (my allergies to children are quite severe) but just a generation ago, I would have been labeled an old maid by now.

I am on the long road when it comes to finishing school and while I think that it is awesome that most of my journey is complete with just a few years til i am done with my bachelors and masters (a lil more if i go to Law school) I am terrified about what that means...
where did they put that pause button on my clock.. and more importantly where is the pause button on my bio-clock... ACHOOO
dun dun dun!

I'M SUCH A DORK

More Silliness... Can you tell me where the TGIFridays is....


Dear Guests from small town America,
So if I am ever visting your city.. and you have a specialty .. like Amazing restaurants ... don't let me go to TGIfridays, Bennigans, or Applebees....

I swear don't you people watch Anthony Bourdain or Samantha Brown .. or read Zagat or trip advisor... Yelp maybe ... how 'bout a google search??? Maybe not..

Why do you want directions to "Fridays" .... they have that in Cairo Il, or Witchta or Hammond...
I understand about budget dinning... I'm not a rich woman ... but why not try a charming neighborhood cafe/ bar and grill or an Italian beef or chicago hotdog or Pizza...

Not to mention Pizza!!! NO I DO NOT HAVE A NUMBER TO DOMINO's!!!

Love,
Crystal
Your friendly neighborhood Concierge
