Chicago

My hate-affair with Chicago continues. I know that Matt loves living there, but bad things just seem to happen in Chicago. Last night Matt was riding his bike home, peddling through on a green light, when the person with a red light turned into him. Thankfully, his bike was hit not him, he had his helmet on, and the other car wasn't going fast. He fell, but ended up with only bruises... and some more anger for Chicago car drivers!

Tom happened to be planning to stay with Matt overnight. Tom was coming home from Australia and didn't land until 9pm and would probably be too tired to drive home that late. Matt and he had planned to grab dinner out, but decided that they would rather order a pizza and stay home. This morning when Tom went to get in his car... it had been towed. Guess the place that he and Matt thought was okay to park in, wasn't. Tom had to walk 2 miles to the lot to pick up his car. $160 later, he started his drive home.

I know that Chicago has many great attributes, but it just seems to do me wrong.
Chicago is not my kind of town.
