kind of a footnote to the last post (but not really)

Chris included me on an e-mail this week asking if people wanted to go to a trivia night in Bucktown. 

Bucktown on a Wednesday night seemed so far away that I assumed I was only included on the e-mail as a courtesy.

I didn't even respond.

But I was thinking about it today and realized this: Bucktown is not very far from here.

It's less than four miles away.

Sometimes I create a bigger gap between neighborhoods than there really is.


I was walking around shopping with Cindy yesterday, I had no intentions of buying anything but ended buying a kind of funny looking coat from a store that also sold this t-shirt,

I wore the jacket out of the store, and the first thing that Cindy said when we left was, "Now we can go get dinner in Bucktown and you'll fit right in."
