Stomach Hurts – don’t know why
I don’t feel well today. I have been trying to take better care of myself, but yesterday I developed a tickle in my throat at work and it hasn’t gone away. My stomach is stirring and it is not good because I am going to be honoring a traditional family tradition by going to the Ribfest at a nearby suburb. Some people may say that because I live in the city of Chicago and north of downtown – I have more opportunities to enjoy enjoyable festivals. However, I am going to be honest and say that I have had more fun at suburban festivals and even some bars than in the city. Don’t get me wrong – I love being in the city, despite my grumbling and honking and complaining about all of the humans that clog up my neighborhood. But there is a different quality to being in the suburbs that I can’t put my finger on. Perhaps I will go out again with my suburban friends and be able to really put feet on why suburban venues are more fun at times.
