Chicago? Pittsburgh? Hmmmm. ::whimper::
Mar. 25th, 2004 07:18 pmOy. Chicago's the mecca of the tour for us midwest LJ-ers, it seems. But here's the thing. I need a new roof. Pittsburgh is closer and cheaper. WAAAAAH! For once, though, time off work won't be a problem. Told the boss lady on Monday that I want time off sometime in early May. So yay! That's cool. We even chatted about how nice it is to meet up with friends. ;-) So.
What I need to do is put the costs down side by side and then make a decision. Yes. Here goes.

It'll probably be Chicago, honestly, because I just *know* I'll read about all the fun everyone had there and kick myself for not going.
The only way I'd skip either (no matter how much fun Chi would be) is if he'd scheduled a date in either Cleveland or Cincinnati, 'cause that'd be waaaaay to convenient to pass up.
Chicago!
