Changes in the Windy City

The weather has finally taken a turn for the better. I've run on the lake shore a couple times this week and have been able to get out into the shining sun without too much chill from the wind. Today I ran in the 55 degree weather and it couldn't have been better. This next week will be in the 60s mostly, so I'm pretty excited about that.

It's also about that time where I need to get back on an exercise and healthy eating routine. I've been slipping in that department for the past week (I'm currently polishing off a pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream that I did, in fact, buy earlier today...) so tomorrow I'll kinda cut the crap out and get back to business. Tomorrow also marks my return to the Marriott (it's been about a month since I worked there due to lack of business...). I've mentioned that I am hoping to get a different job soon, and while I've been looking in certain places over the past couple of months, I've just recently started really searching hard. Some restaurants that I applied to on Friday (for a server position) look promising, so keep your fingers crossed for me. The restaurant culture in Chicago is so different from Texas... there are hardly any chains and every restaurant you go to has something cool and unique to offer. Serving is also a nice way to earn some hard cash, which I learned at On the Border. I think it could be a really cool summer job, because the city really comes alive in the summer. Anyway, of course I'll let everyone know if something comes of those applications.

I honestly don't know what's going to be happening over the next couple of weeks, but I sense some major changes, so I'm excited for that, and then I'll have some real good blog posts to discuss! Hope everything is going well with everyone in Texas, I'll be seeing y'all very soon!
