Chitown Benefits

     Omg! I had a wonderful time this weekend! I met up with NOLA in Chicago this past Friday evening. I didn't want dinner. So, he grabbed something before we met up. We went to see a movie, the one with Brad Pitt. (I don't remember the name.) Lol. I wanted to see Flight, but he was like, "Nah." Hehe.

     Saturday, we went sightseeing for the most part. We ended up at a flea market. I'm thinkin I hope he isn't trying to take me shopping here! Well, the churro was oh so delicious, but I'm not looking for any other goods at a flea market. Not with my SD, that is. Lol. So, he asks around for another flea market, and we head over to it. Well, by this point I know for sure he must be looking for something in particular. So, I ask him, and he says he's looking for an old friend.

     So, we get to the 2nd flea market, and sure enough the first person we ask knows the guy he's looking for! So, I let him talk and catch, while I explore the FLEE (because I wanted to flee to a real mall!) market.

     Afterwards, we headed back to the hotel to freshen up. Then, we headed out to go shopping! Contrary to what I've just written above I really don't want to go shopping. I'd just ordered boots, and was planning to save anything I'll be getting from SDs for the rest if the year. However, he gave me money. So, I headed to the boot section(lol) while he search for a shirt.

     I didn't find anything, and that was ok with me. I pocketed the money, he made his purchase, and we headed out. On the way back, I stopped at the best spa an nail ever, Belle, while he headed back to the hotel. (We had passed this place on the way to do some shopping, and he asked if I wanted to get my nails done.) Of course, I do! I almost expect him to do this for me every time! Hehe. He always asks. At any rate, we later went to a benefit concert featuring Musiq Soulchild!

    Honestly, we initially searched for tickets for the Miguel concert, but it was sold out! Lol. So, he lucked up, and found the benefit concert. Now, when he purchased them, he didn't know that it was a benefit concert, but it turned out really well. The Calhoun family of Chicago puts on an annual benefit concert to raise money for college scholarships for the youth. (I was surprised to see Darlene from Fox News co-hosting!) So, it was a good time for a good cause!

***Well, that's my news for the time being! He wants to go somewhere warm next time. So, hopefully he sticks to that idea when booking flights! Lol.


P.S. I just left Jamba Juice, and the server made too much for my 16oz. So, I was upgraded to a 20oz for free! :) Also, I have a second date Thursday with a POT! Wish me luck!
