The Highs and the Lows

Wow, was it nice today. This would be the high....a high of 90 I'm pretty sure. The color of my skin has definitely gone from pale to a shade of red that will soon become tan. I expect this weather on weekends for the next three months. When people say they love Chicago in summer, this is what they are talking about.

The lows...the Bulls got knocked out of the playoffs this week. I actually wanted them to keep winning. I normally hate the NBA, but this Bulls team drew me in and then let me down. I have to admit, I have selfish reasons for being upset they lost as well. You see, local teams in the playoffs leads to people being excited, which leads to bars having parties and people being out at these bars watching these games, and the farther these teams get, these bar parties spill over to the street and people get really excited...you see where I'm going. More people out and about celebrating, means more drunk people dropping money, which more opportunities for me. Oh, well, we always have the Cubs crowds...even though that's becoming a bit of a joke as well. Don't get me started.

Well as you've noticed I waited until Monday to write this week because of the holiday. I figured I'd have a good day today, and I was half right. Lots of coins...majority pennies. I don't mind it though, it's always fun seeing the cash. This week, I found $4.71, which isn't bad. I also found a coupon for a free coffee at Einstein Bagels that I will give away because I  don't drink coffee. Maybe I'll sell it... hehe. Other than that, I saw a full cupcake and a textbook on environmental alternatives. Nothing else overly exciting.

I am taking next Sunday off again as I will be in Pittsburgh and West Virginia for a wedding. I'll be back on Monday and will update you on my May totals. Have a great week everyone!
