@cawcawphony or "same junk, different day" or "why didn't this happen in Magic Mike?" or "too bad the actor wasn't Taylor Kitsch" and so on. Really, I think the hilarious part was seeing the actor outside afterwards and being a grown woman who couldn't even look at him out of embarrassment.

I estimated $110 and I went under only because I haven't paid for the gifts I was planning yet. Otherwise, I was right on. Friday friend bought pizza since I was volunteering with her and we didn't have time to sit anywhere for drinks. The play was great even with the unexpected full frontal. Saturday I went grocery shopping with a gift card, but needed a few more things from Aldi, $12. Inspired by thehairpin I made cold brew coffee for the week and a smoothie. Then made a taco pizza for lunch and watched Bachelorette. Saturday night I went to the LivingSocial Beer Fest at Lincoln Park Zoo. Lots of fun, but very crowded and disorganized in parts. When it started raining we left to get pizza, $12. Sunday morning I brought breakfast and coffee from Fritz Pastry to a friend's to hang out before heading south for fathers' day, $20. Later in the day I filled up my sister's car with gas, $25.01 because I have never mastered the .00 pump. Total: $69.01

@stuffisthings for real. I was so warmed by the conversation last week about where people donate.

I'd want windows that open, flexible seating options like Logan suggested, and a rooftop patio with wi-fi for breaks or for working.

@coastalelite I have money taken out of my paycheck each pay period to go to Chicago's emergency fund: http://emergencyfund.org/ It's local and they provide cash assistance and work with other agencies and I don't have to remember to do it.

@sparrow303 I had already paid for the beer fest so we didn't watch the game, but it was a lot of fun finding the random people with ipads/phones streaming the game at the zoo and seeing tiny packs of people crowding around them.
