foxmonkeyOy. 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.

Our house needs a new roof, that's why I'm hesitant to go where I *really* want to go, which is Chi. But Sai's made a generous offer that'd put cash back in the roof fund, and I'd still be able to make the trip. Eeeeeee!!! :-)
