Officially, I was there for meetings.
(Meetings that--20 years from now--
just might be referred to as pivotal ones,
in the realm of humanities higher education...)
But, given lots of downtime,
I also had myself a beautifully unexpected little vacation.
~~
Wednesday: Arrive. Hit Lakeshore Drive (just a block away from your hotel). Walk along the lake until you get to the Aquarium. See the Aquarium. Take the L to Garfield Conservatory. Wander. Return to the hotel and find the Chicago Theatre on your way. Be very tired. Eat a prolonged meal on the patio of your hotel. Experience the moment that Kevin brings you cookies, because he thinks you will enjoy them with your coffee. Talk to the drunk man (who thinks you are quite lovely), and then excuse yourself for a cozy bed. Sleep, kind of.
