Meet You There

So...X Factor was a bust, but whatever.  I got to go to Chicago and have a blast!  I'll share the sordid details later, but for now I'll share my trip in pictures:
In the Escape before hitting the road!
Rain rain rain in Cleveland :(

Fuck you Mobil Gas!

Freezing in Indiana.

Yay, Chicago at last!!!

Looking fabulous in line for X Factor registration.

All registered and ready to hit the city :)

Sharing a good laugh with Bob Newhart.

A tender moment with the sculpted children of Chicago.

She totally started it.  You didn't see what she did to get this kick.

The obligatory self-portrait in the reflection of the Bean.

Cloud Gate, aka The Bean.  A stop in our exploration of Millennium Park.

A really good shot of the skyline in Downtown Chicago.

All dolled up for the auditions!  I looked good before the 2.5 hour wait in the cold rain :(

Patiently waiting.

Some of the line on audition day.

Float On

I like making lists, it's a good way to summarize the thoughts in my head without writing an entire novel in one blog post.  So...

*I woke up this morning with a headache.  I think it's from falling asleep with my super heavy and super thick hair pulled tightly up at the top of my head.  I popped two Excedrin and took my hair down...

*BUT...I realized that the argan oil that I put in my hair could very well be causing the nasty outbreak of acne I've been getting along my jawline and my lower cheeks and hairline.  So I pulled my hair back.

*However, the argan oil makes my stupid hair behave, so I'm trying to find a brand that I could use that won't break me out.  I heard Josie Maran makes a good oil.  For now I'm just putting the oil at the ends and hopefully I won't break out anymore.

*The Floridian Flasher struck again last night.  I was kind of like "wow, why would you send me a picture of your junk two months after the last picture you sent of your junk...especially after I completely ignored you and blocked you on Facebook?"  I guess that's some serious desperation, hahaha.

*Happy Easter, if Christianity is your cup of tea.  I drink from the mug of Catholicism--it tastes kinda like some really strong espresso, with quite a kick.

*I leave for Chicago in about 22 hours.  I audition for X Factor in less than four days.  Very excited.  Starting to get nervous.  There's something pretty intimidating about Simon Cowell.

*I was suspended three days this week from work.  I can't really go into it since I'm still working there, but I'll tell you that I didn't do anything wrong.  Perhaps I can go into it soon.  Just cross your fingers for me and perhaps I'll have an entirely new chapter to tell.
