Time is a monster that cannot be reasoned with.It was such a beautiful weekend in Chicago. The weather, the scenery, and the company. From the Thursday evening to this afternoon - every moment was wonderful. A late night meal on Division, A trip to IKEA, the man on the sidewalk who exclaimed to Sarah, "You are stunning.", an evening in Wicker Park with a bottle of wine, a few tears, and tons of laughter, a morning nap, a waiter who tried to compliment us as we finished our deep dish pizza, the lady with the hat in the Confession line, the Bean at night, a walk along the Chicago River, the Green Door, Margie's ice cream to-go, an endearing movie, having someone to go to Mass with, chocolate mousse, and raspberry cheesecake...
It responds like a snail to our impatience,
then it races like a gazelle when you can't catch a breath.
-from the movie, Simon Birch
Every time I get to spend time with people I love in this city - I enjoy it all the more and realize that with all the traffic and crowded sidewalks - it is truly a wonderful place to live at this point in my life.

How did this waiter try to compliment you?? Sounds like a fun weekend--have more of those! =)
I let Robert win. I totally read this first. Man, I am so selfless.
Sweet weekend!!
did you see the title of the post? Sarah and I each had a salad and then shared a small deep-dish pizza - the waiter's compliment: "Man, you girls can eat!"
DINOSAURS!
