off by one for 2005 March 8 (entry 1)

Tue Mar 08 10:04:52 thumbs up - thumbs down:

I've been living in Chicago now for over eleven years and thinking about leaving soon has made me want to make a list of things I will miss and things I won't miss about the Second City on the Third Coast. I'm going to try and make a post every day with that topic in mind -- in no particular order. Here's my first entry:

<b>will miss</b>: Having such a spectacularly funny mayor. Every time Daley is on the television, it's comedy gold. Ask anybody.

won't miss: the rustling of plastic bags in the trees. Living in Chicago, you actually think that maybe plastic bags *do* grow on trees. Unfortunately, I'll probably get plenty of that in LA... maybe they'll just be in palm trees or something instead of mulberry and catalpa. I hope not.
