Tax Day
Hope this isn’t the first time you’ve heard about taxes this year.
Taxes suck. Unless you get a refund of course.

:doh: I know, I know. After reading some reviews, I just had to upgrade to this beautiful thing. And one reviewer referred to the stand as not just a stand, but a “grilling podium” so I’m going to go back and get that too.
The forecast shows 3 days of sunshine! What does that mean? Spring is here! And what does that mean? It’s time to get ready for summer! And what does that mean? BBQs!
I quested to find the perfect deck grill and I ended up with this cheapass gas grill from walmart. There were some cool ones at lowes and home depot but nothing was really nice enough and cost more too.
This weekend I hope to fire up my trusty 10,000 BTU portable gas grill and see what “made in china” really means! Woo hoo!!:drunk:
So…Chicago is a nice city and so is the metro area. The area we stayed was a little yuppy but the Chicago area was also really nice. On our way back to Michigan it seemed like we were driving into the shadow of a huge cloud. There was a sign that read: “Welcome to Michigan. Great lakes. Great times.” They should also add “Great big freaking pot holes.”
Well, not to prolong the suspense, here are the pictures:
The nice chicago skyline. We never got to go to The Sears Tower.
Downtown Chicago is nice.
The navy pier is cool but not that cool.
There was this map that you pay a buck to put your name on. Representing Anaheim baby! :yeah:
The L-Train station.
The L-Train going by. We rode it for only one stop. Haha.
A cool looking theatre.
Look at that stud eating his deep dish pizza.
Seeing this huge IKEA brought tears to my eyes. :sob: IKEA is seriously an amusement park made for adults.
They had these cool carts in the cafeteria. Those Swedish meatballs are damn good. A little smallish though.
Oh yeah. Lots of money and 6 hours later. :wallbash:
A rare sight. :clap:
More pictures.

The drive wasn’t that bad. We got stuck with a huge Dodge Dakota V8 4×4 pick-up that has a hole in the gas tank. We only drove 240 mi before I had to add 18 gallons of gas. But one of the highlights had to be when we passed some crops. Leave it to Angeline to say:
Angeline:Hey, let’s make crop circles.
:doh:
So I’m brushing my teeth and thinking about tomorrow’s trip when I reach this conclusion: we are pretty lame.
It’s pretty funny that we planned a trip to IKEA. In fact, it was difficult just choosing which IKEA to visit. It was between Chicago (300 mi) or Toronto (225 mi), which has 4 IKEAs btw. After all the fuss, it was decided–Schaumburg, IL here we come! I’ll try to take some cool pics of our dopeass Enterprise pick-up truck. It’ll be so cool! Hahahaha. :thumbup:
So I’m about done blogging when I reach this other conclusion: I still miss Cali.
