That pretty much sums up a fun and socially-packed weekend following two previous weekends of feeling "blah", anti-social, and just generally being in a bad way.
There was a fundraiser for juvenile myositis, for which The Fella was an invited guest speaker to present his business idea about creating a Northwestern Memorial Hospital Transition Clinic, in collaboration with Children's Memorial Hospital, which would provide a dedicated facility to seamlessly transition pediatric care patients to adult care.

A visit to Chicago's finest, to file a report after an accident on the expressway headed back into the city during Friday rush hour (some Italian princess, a la Snookie from Jersey Shore, in a fancy BMW 328x1 hit me from behind while changing lanes, threatened to call her lawyer – seriously? WTF? – refused to give me her insurance info for 45 minutes because "she had never heard of this exchange of information thing" – again, WTF?? – said it was somehow my fault, fought with me every second, fought/flirted with the Emergency Patrol guy, etc). The *best* part was when she decided not to acknowledge me anymore, and referred to me as "this leee-tle girl". It took everything to restrain myself from pushing her into traffic, but I wanted to keep it klassy, you know? And to top things off, I missed all the Fashion's Night Out events and parties downtown!
Reconnected with an old high school friend who found me on Facebook after 11 years! It turns out that she lives in the city, too, so we met up for the Renegade Arts & Crafts Fair on Division Street, which I look forward to all year long! It was great to see a familiar face out here...
