Friday night was Terri's birthday so there was much celebrating and fun-having and ping-pong playing at the Happy Village. It's a great spot for the summer as their back/outside area is large and pretty. And the beer is cheap.
Liz and I walked home and along the way passed Wicker Park. For some reason we always have to play a little in the park if we're passing it on the way home. This time we avoided the slides (we had a problem with rainwater/dew last time we went sliding) and focused on the random statue man with a broom and a top hat. After a few photos and some giggling, we ran away and went to get some Mexican food. It was good. 
Saturday morning we went to IKEA (love!--I got some Bastis, a Dold, and a Signe), Petsmart (spoiled pup) and the grocery store. Then off to see Jamie in Dirty Girl. It's a kid's show and was really cute. Giggles galore. Outstanding 80's references and a spectacular cabaret solo from Jamie/Yolanda.
After the show, it was off to see Foreigner, Styx, and Def Leopard at Tweeter. Good lord. That was a fun time. The show was fun, of course, but the people-watching was spectacular. I really really really wanted to bring my camera, but the thought of losing it was too much. Good stuff--mostly people my mom's age freaking the ef out and being drunk and dancing all to Styx. There were excited people for Def Leopard as well, but that makes more sense to me. 
Sunday was a quiet day. Walked Sadie at 8am, napped from 10 to 2, then off to see Knocked Up at the Logan. I love the Logan. $3 movies, cheap(er) popcorn. When you can see a fairly recent movie and get popcorn and a pop, all for under $10, it's a good time.
Then home to watch more 90210. The cable is still out.
