I talk about my trip down to Chicago over the weekend and how it wound up being a super fun evening that was filled with dancing, relatives, and laughs.  I had a great time hanging out with Michael and my cousins.  It was a giant pain in the ass to get down there, but my cousin Heather let me stay in her hotel room, which was very gracious of her.  There was some excitement leaving in the morning, because I lost my credit card while dancing, but luckily I had that $100 bill on me and the parking garage had to take it.  They were irritated and told me they don't take bills higher than $20 and I told them they could either take the $100 bill, let me out for free or let me live in the parking garage for the rest of my life.  They didn't like any of those options and made me wait for about 45 minutes while they made change.  Eventually I was sprung and made my way home.
