Cons
- Greatly reduced tennis. Sustained indoor tennis would require a monthly budget of 200+$.
- Switch to daylight saving time, and it starts becoming dark at 4pm.
- 2500 layers of clothing and day after day of mind numbing cold (its winter, duh!).
- Football season begins. Its all that everyone watches and talks about. Whats the fascination with 300 pound men running into each other at full throttle? Seems to be some modern day version of the Roman Coliseum where gladiators beat each other senseless.
- Around Christmas time every restaurant and shop starts playing the same Frank Sinatra Christmas CD and trust me, it gets to you after a while.
Pros
- Sitcom season begins. Family Guy. American Dad. 30 Rock. Parks and Recreation. Some good new ones too - Modern Family and Community.
- Holiday time! Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year....
- Skiing ?! Its super fun but need to get head count (not body count.).
- Improv season might begin if I decide to start classes again. Or, is it going to be Lindy in the Windy City?
- Chicago starts looking like a scene from the Batman movie, which is not particularly surprising as Batman Returns was shot here.
