through the eyes of bonita
My Week in Review:
1. Went to a training in the "Loop" at 200 N Michigan the latter end of the week on Behavioral Change in High Risk Youth. Turns out a key to changing behavior is considering which a person is lacking more: Importance or Confidence.
2. Had lunch in Millenium Park while the Blue Angels flew over head practicing for the Air & Water Show.
3. Walked through hordes of Cubs fans (probley from the suburbs. . suburban people are always way too shy crossing city streets) who were trying to get to Wrigley but who couldn't seem to understand the flow of traffic on Clark. I've got to find a new way home on Cubs game days.
4. Saw Joshua Radin and Anna Nalick at Park West. The former was like a good cup of Joe with a shot of Bailey's on a cold February night by the fireplace watching the snow fall. The latter was like Lisa Loeb meets Aerosmith, a strange strange combination.
5. Went to hear the Chicago Symphony play Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 and Prokofiev's Symphony No. 5 with friends downtown. We had some Reisling and enjoyed the city lights and crisp strings in the finest outdoor venue in the heart of chicago.
Just when you start thinking about leaving a town. . . you fall in love all over again.

I love Chicago. My first visit there, a couple of months ago, was soiled only by the fact that I had strep throat and had to mime my way through the streets.
Decision? Well, filed in the category of "I should have known," there were more obstacles and I had to put off the decision until a later date. Probably a good thing, but it's just hard to know. It's like, "Ok, is this a lesson about perserverance or is it a lesson about going with the flow?"
