    Lake Michigan in redux

    Lake Michigan in redux

    There is something special, something magical about Lake Michigan. It’s one of Chicago’s greatest assets, and I do believe a central feature in the average Chicagoan’s psyche. Why? Because it is there. It is there, and it lives and breathes with the seasons and belongs to each and every citizen of this amazing town. It [...]

    Internet, meet Charlie Brown

    Internet, meet Charlie Brown

    I took this picture on Christmas Eve, and I should have posted it a while ago.  In fact, as I write this, Charlie Brown and all his accoutrements are sitting in boxes in my closet and under my bed.

    Happy New Year AGAIN!

    Happy New Year AGAIN!

    One more New Year’s picture:

    This is part of the view to the west of my condo, of The Sovereign. Did you know that many many years ago, back when Edgewater was The Ritzy, the Prince of Wales stayed there? It used to be a hotel, now it’s apartments.
    Anyhoo, I took this right after the sun [...]

    Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year!

    In Japan, it is customary to drag yourself hop out of bed and go see the first sunrise of the New Year. This is a tradition at Chez Fat Chick, especially since it only requires me to put on my coat (over my pajamas) and walk across the street. This morning’s sunrise was cloudy, but beautiful [...]

    My favorite commercial

    My favorite commercial

    Have I ever told you that I totally dig commercials? Seriously, I’ve been known to RAIL over the BP commercials for months, and sing commercial songs for entire seasons.  Not the car commercials, mind you. Those are a waste of airspace. But the good ones, the ones that are like 30 seconds of genius? Those [...]

    My Hanukkah Bush

    My Hanukkah Bush

    Sorry for the light posting lately, I’ve been swamped with holiday preparations. Like this:

    This is my Hanukkah Bush. I bought the tree from Borders during the after-after-after-please-buy-this-crap-95% off sale, which means they basically paid me to buy this green tinsel tree. I brought it into work, to cheer my office up doncha know, and decorated [...]
