Moving on up It's moving weekend for the Chicago Addick. No egg hunts and fluffy bunnies for me. Nope, just boxes, bubble-wrap, packing, cleaning, unpacking and more boxes.

I'm at work today as corporate America doesn't observe Easter, amazing for a country so religious but I'm hoping to slip off soon to start my weekend of packing. I move into my new place on Monday and it will be nice to call somewhere my own after living in 3 rented places in 17 months.

I'm tinkering with the idea of watching the England game tomorrow. I find it hard to get excited about the National team normally but being starved of football and the fact I can watch it over breakfast makes the idea more enticing.

I've had another busy week - out Monday night at the Bulls, Tuesday in St Louis, Wednesday night on the lash with some old London pals who now work in Bermuda and Thursday night in Home Depot, which is open 24 hours just in case you wake up in the night and feel the urge to put up a dry wall!

Anyway some bastard has given me a cold in the process and I have a couple of suitcases under my eyes. On top of that I was at the dentist yesterday morning and he wants me to have my four wisdom teeth out! Fuck dat.

Nonetheless some good news. I have some tickets in my grubby little hands this morning. One for a holiday to Los Cabos in Mexico, which I leave for on Sunday week and one for the U2 concert in Chicago on May 9th. Happy days.

Weather check.... Chicago 35F and snowing like hell, Los Cabos 84F and hot!  ¶ 13:30
