I am so far behind on my ABC-along it's not even funny.
Hyde Park is the neighborhood I live in on the Southside of Chicago. It is a tiny oasis of relative safety in the vast unsafeness that the Southside is famous for. There's very little to do down here and it's ridiculously far from downtown and the fun that is the Northside, but people seem to like it. I go in cycles. At first I hated it, then I had a few good years of liking it, and now I hate it again. Good thing I'll be leaving in a year or so.
My parents moved a few years ago, and told me that they moved to Chicago. "Cool," I thought. I'd been to Chicago once for a concert (drove up from St. Louis), and I've always thought Chicago was a cool town. So, when I went out to visit them, I was pretty excited to see the city.
ReplyDeleteThey moved to Sugar Grove. That is SO not Chicago.
