Cracky Chicago Revisted

we got back from milwaukee around 9pm on saturday night, we went straight to the hostel and checked in and guess what, yep – everyone in our room is asleep again. wierdo's. We got ready and jumped in a cab to go meet Alex and her friends for her birthday drinks at Xippo's (or something like that). Suburban chicago is gold. It's only like 10 min out of the CBD, and there's all these little neighbourhood bars on all the corners – so gold!

anyways, we get drunk again – surprise surprise. we start doing shots with some of alex's friends - and we notice that all american shots have such nice and namely clean names – for example – we were doing lemon drop shots, and 'red-headed slugs'. everything was going good till me and van start telling them about our australian shots and their dirty names – the americans think it's hilarious we have shots called 'wet pussies', 'cocksucking cowboys' and 'quickfucks' – and they think it's even more hilarious when we start buying round after round. got so trashy – hahah was gold!

We woke up sunday, and suprise suprise...we missed breakfast, again. we headed down to this place called navy pier that has all these cool shops and a mad f**k off free christmas world thing! went to bubba gump's for lunch – and that place is freakin awesome - we had these big ass cocktails and got free bubba gump glasses...and the shrimp is to die for!! before we left...i had to buy a number plate that said “run forrest run” and a pencil for ant that says “stupid is as stupid does”. hahahah. bought some mad postcards and shit to send home to dara and one for me to keep on my wall “You can tell a lot about a person by their shoes” - indeed! and seeing as i have the best shoes – that means im also the best!

We walked down the pier and went into the winter wonderland festival hall.The place is unfreakingbelievable!! its a free christmas display that is put on by some american bank, and there was rides, ice skating, xmas displays, christmas choirs and everything- was so good – im so excited about a white christmas!! even more after going to that!! Me and van were lining up for all the rides and pushing all the kids out of the way to get on the jumping castlesand slides...although might not have been a good idea after cocktails and some shrimp! best news of that day tho – was that i manged to NOT fall over when iceskating! ten points ange!

Went out on sunday night for dinner with alex, cheryl and anna – they took us for traditional chicago deep dish pizza – that shit is the bomb!! although, one slice and you're done! it's so good though! like a big ass pie or something! oh and they let you sign the walls and furniture and shit! mad!

Monday was our last day in chicago – and possibly the most exciting..cos monday was JERRY SPRINGER DAY!! JERRY JERRY JERRY!!! we met two random american dudes our dads ages in the line and they were like our buddies all day. got to go into the studio and me and van are freaking out and getting all giddy and shit cos we're actually sitting in the jerry springer studio!! so crazy!! jerry comes out and is talking to the crowd and asking questions and shit so i put my hand up and say “have you ever considered taking your show internationally cos im from australia and we got a lot of crazy ass people down there too! we have trailer parks too, and believe me - they're full of crazy people” hahahahah i just wanted to talk to jerry! although i was getting death stares from people when i started bagging out trailer parks!

anyway the show starts and its about cheating partners of course. and some chick comes out and is taking about how she cheated on her husband with his friend who just got out of prison but now she's also having sex with a chick from her strip club. anyway, the husbands friend comes out and he has bigger bitch tits than her. i had to get on tv so i made an audience comment and said “my comments for the stripper chick – i don't know your name- did you realise you were lesbian while having sex with Juan because you liked his boobs so much? juan – take your top off and get some jerry beads” bhhha - was so proud of myself, but then i vomited in my mouth a bit because an old lady with no teeth and coke bottle glasses took her top off for some jerry beads. vomit.

Headed back to the hotel after jerry to pick up our bags and caught the train to the airport. Love the rail in Chicago! it's all up in the air like our monorail and made me feel like i was in gotham city! gawgeous!


Anyways, im dunzo for today.
