New Year’s

went to the Spy Club for a New Year’s bash. good time, very international flavor – got my dance on and busted out my best Bollywood moves… 🙂

city mouse

2011 will bring lots of time spent in Chicago, so opted for an apartment instead of the weekly hotels. scored a place downtown in the center of everything – should be fun. enjoyed my trip to Ikea for an opportunity to buy “everything”.

Christmas

drove out to Oak Park for Christmas dinner at Vicky’s. nice to spend time with the extended family and see my second cousins.

Christmas eve

at Kunaal’s for a party and a promised night of poker. bunch of folks and a bunch of kids, but no poker… fun night, ended up staying there rather than making the long drive back through the snow.

Jeffrey

battled traffic to meet up with Jeffrey downtown after work, joining him for a late dinner at Frontera. great time catching up, and not surprisingly turned into a late night.

West Loop

downtown again this weekend searching for the new city digs. found a promising candidate in a building with its own bowling alley, among other amenities. lunch in Greektown on the way out.

Firkin

second time in as many weeks – thanks for the recommendation Brian. and their eastern European vodka selection blows away the beer choices…
