Holiday

As you can probably tell, I ended up taking the Labor Day weekend off. My family and I took a short trip on the train up to Chicago. It was good being back in a big city again... Since returning from Japan I've been stuck in my small hometown. And it's admittedly been driving me a little crazy.

We went out to Wrigley Field to see a Cubs game. They lost, but that's something a hundred years of losing inures you to (even if this year's been a little different). I had a Chicago hot dog (the best hot dogs in the world) and some Chicago style pizza (the best pizza in the world).

Over all, it was a good weekend. Comics come back tomorrow!

Oh, man, I'm jealous. NOTHING beats a Chicago deep-dish pizza! NOTHING!

You speak the truth, friend. No foodstuff in this galaxy or another can compare.

I've... never had a Chicago deep-dish.

It's a shameful secret, especially because I live less than an hour from downtown. You'd think I'd have had it at least once.

Actually, since I'm confessing, I don't think I even like deep-dish pizza. I'm a terrible Illinoisan.

No, you're not a terrible Illinoisan.

Unless you're a Cardinals fan. You're not a Cardinals fan, are you Derek?

"Cardinals fan"?!

Words hurt, sir.

You're... You're right, Derek. I'm sorry. That was a cruel thing to even insinuate. Can you forgive me?You're... You're right, Derek. I'm sorry. That was a cruel thing to even insinuate. Can you forgive me?
