Sister city

February 4, 2010 at 10:11 pm | Posted in Uncategorized | 6 Comments

My sister Lisa came to Chicago just the other day. For two weeks — before I leave for other pastures — we’re roommates. And this makes me happy. We’re not usually in the same city, just hauling the same genetic baggage around our respective haunts. Now we can both say: Hey. That looks just like mine. We both mumble when we talk. Can’t follow compass directions. Love goat cheese and pasta and beer. Stay up late, watching Curb Your Enthusiasm and L’Auberge Espagnole and sipping through a $3 bottle of wine while our apartment’s ancient gas heater clangs and thrums.

  1. New apartment, or new city?

    • New apartment in Chicagoland!

      • Oh! And I am traveling until the end of March. That is what I meant by other pastures.

  2. Hyggi and I miss you :]

  3. I looooooooooooove L’auberge Espagnole! Own it, love it.

    Good luck and tons of love and positive energy on your trip, Linds.
    You deserve this.

    Come back with treasures in the form of stories.

    Xo,
    Kate

    • Thanks sweet Kate! I am so glad we got to check in last week. xoxo
