Chicagosity: ChiWriMo
http://chicagosity.blogspot.com/2009/11/chiwrimo.html
Sunday, November 8, 2009. This is not so much a place as an event. For the past five years, I have participated in National Novel Writing Month. Known to the participants as NaNoWriMo. My first two years, I was highly successful, clocking 72,000 words in 2005 and 51K in 2006. 2007 and 2008 were not as good to me, I made it to 15K in my third go, but only 5500 words last year. I was busy teaching and acting and everything else, what can I say? I slept when I would have been writing. Anyway, if you partici...

Chicagosity: April 2009
http://chicagosity.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 26, 2009. Getting Ahead of Myself. Yesterday, as I sat in Dave's office, waiting for the eldest and most stubborn geriatric cat who suddenly needs someone. Right there with her. According to Googlemaps, we can do it in one day and not quite four hours. I'm guessing that means if we were to get in the car and not get out for anything until we reached Chicago. Um, no. Now I can look into pet-friendly hotel options in those two cities. (And maybe also Chicago? As I said in the title to this po...

Chicagosity: May 2009
http://chicagosity.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 29, 2009. Sorry I should have posted this before last Sunday, but was too busy to get to it. I was in Denver last weekend for a wedding, and will be in Boise this weekend for a few days with my family. This will most likely be the last time I see most of them until after The Big Move. Anyway, I probably won't have internet access, so I won't be posting on Sunday. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Sunday, May 17, 2009. It was lovely and they were very VERY patient with me and...

Chicagosity: August 2009
http://chicagosity.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 30, 2009. About the Sunday Posting Situation. When I decided to post here on Sundays, those were free days. The Sunday post presupposed I would have time on Sundays TO post. I just didn't have time today. I DO, however have lots of things to write about and hopefully some pretty pictures. The plan is to post tomorrow about the stuff I didn't get the time to write about today. Eventually (when I'm completely unpacked), my Sundays will free up drastically. Next week should be a good bet.

Friday, October 30, 2009. Wait Wait. Don't Tell Me! Last night, I participated in what has to be a Chicago tradition/mainstay/happening/I can't find the word. Anyway, it's an event that happens regularly here. I was in the audience for the Halloween edition of. Wait Wait. Don't Tell Me! Heather, you see, is a Chicago 10 for the podcast Too Beautiful to Live. If you're remotely acquainted with the show, I highly recommend attending a taping. Though I must tell you, it isn't exactly free. The Chica...Subsc...

http://chicagosity.blogspot.com/2010/01/opening-new-year-at-jazz-showcase.html
Saturday, January 2, 2010. Opening the New Year at Jazz Showcase. Last night was my first time inside the doors of Chicago landmark Jazz Showcase. I went with my friends Heather and Sam because Roy Hargrove. And his quintet were playing there and, seriously, who can resist the Hargrove? But this isn’t a music review site. This is a “here’s what I’m learning about Chicago as I explore it” site, so let’s get down to business. Thing about the stools at the back tables, I have to say, is that they give you a...
